Season 3 of Austria's Next Topmodel aired on Puls 4 from January to March 2011. The judging panel consisted of Lena Gercke, Elvyra Geyer, and Atil Kutoglu.[1] Among the prizes were a cover on Austrian magazine Woman, the face of the newest Hervis campaign as well as two runway jobs at the Milan and Paris Fashion Week.
The first episode featured contestants in all nine Austrian federal states and the top four from each state automatically qualified for a spot in the first episode. The top four competed again with the favorite of each state making the final cast directly. Five more contestants were granted wildcard spots, making a total of 14 competing in the remaining episodes. Another change was that there was one casting to book in every episode where the actual job would take place abroad, however only the winner would be allowed to travel there. The only international destination to where all cast members traveled was New York City.

Magalie's racism controversy
In the fourth episode, contestant Magalie Berghahn was disqualified in the show for racist comments she made during a phone conversation with her boyfriend. She referred to fellow competitor Lydia Obute as "Neger Oide" (negative afflicted Austrian slang for Black Woman) and to Vanessa Lotz as "Deitsche" (slang for German Woman). Both Obute and Lotz won a go-see that episode. The conversation was fully taped and aired during the show. She was confronted by host Lena Gercke with the video material in front of the other two girls. Gercke then told her that she was expelled from the show given the competition has no room for racist ideas and thoughts. As a result, Berghahn was not invited to the final runway show of the cast on the seasons final, and she later stated that the scandal ruined her life.[3]
Puls 4 was later accused of using the controversy for promotional purposes as Berghahn's comments were already shown in the preview for the episode and uncensored during the airing of Episode 4.[4]
