Austria's Next Topmodel, cycle 5 was the fifth cycle of the Austrian reality documentary based on Tyra Banks America's Next Top Model. Having the entire panel of judges replaced, Austrian-born international fashion model Melanie Scheriau became the new host and was joined by runway-model and former Lagerfeld-muse Carmen Kreuzer, who was also the casting director for the Cycle, and Rolf Scheider, who was already a judge during the third and fourth cycle of Germany's Next Topmodel.
The show kicked off on January 3, 2013 with the lowest ratings on the premiere for the history of the show. In difference to other years the casting process was not featured in the premiere episode. Instead the final 20 contestants arrived in a military bootcamp and were then taken to Egypt, where at the end of the first episode, the cast of the top 15 was selected.
