Format changes
editWith the exception of the first two episodes, this was the first cycle of the show to be filmed entirely outside of the Netherlands. The contestants were flown to Los Angeles in episode two, and spent the remainder of the competition in the United States.
The winner of this years' wildcard competition was 19 year-old Laurie Kruitbosch from Apeldoorn. In contrast to the previous cycle's contest, the judges narrowed their selection down to the top ten applicants with the most votes from the public on the show's website.
