Celebrity news: Thomas Gottschalk protects Boris Becker – Panorama

Thomas Gottschalk, 71, moderator, sees no criminal in Boris Becker. “Boris didn’t rip off impoverished grannies”, he agreed picture. “But in the worst case, a few rich financiers who wanted to adorn themselves with the fame of the tennis idol have become a little poorer, and that was obviously a bad investment. My sympathy for them is limited.” The former tennis star was found guilty of multiple charges in a criminal trial in London on Friday. The jury decided on Friday that he withheld parts of his assets from his insolvency administrator. Becker could theoretically face a prison sentence. Gottschalk also sees a reason for Becker’s behavior in his early success: “While we learned at school that you can’t spend anything you don’t own, little Boris threw tennis balls over the net. In terms of money and women, he has made more mistakes than on the tennis court.”

Caroline Kebekus, 41, comedian, feels sorry for Putin’s plastic surgeons. “He also has fillers and botox and, I think, had his upper eyelids tightened. How bad is it when you’re the one who pushes the fillers in? One spray and then you go to the penal camp,” she told the German press agency. “I also imagine him sitting there and thinking, ‘What do I actually want now? I’d like a little more glow.'” For her, it’s encouraging and liberating to realize that you’re in a live in a free country where such jokes are possible.

Elizabeth II, 95, Queen, talks about surviving the corona infection. “It makes you very tired and exhausted, doesn’t it?” she said in a video call with a former Covid patient. The Queen tested positive for the corona virus in February. According to the palace, she was experiencing “mild, cold-like symptoms” but still continued to perform light tasks. In the video call, the Queen also spoke to medical staff from the new “Queen Elizabeth Unit” at the Royal London Hospital, a ward that was expanded to accommodate Covid patients in just five weeks. “It’s very interesting, isn’t it – when it comes to something very important, how everyone is working together and pulling together – wonderful, isn’t it?” she said.

Gizem Emre, 26, barista and actress, feels comfortable between coffee and camera. “I love the balancing act between my jobs,” she says glamour. “When acting I can take on other identities, as a testimonial I can show more of my personal side and stand up for issues that are important to me. Then there are days when I stand behind the coffee machine in my café in Berlin and I with guests from very different worlds.”
