She came, sang – and sat on the sofa for the rest of the evening: Helene Fischer did “Wetten, dass ..?” On Saturday evening. good face to the bad game. She endured even overbearing questions stoically.
As a spectator of “Wetten, dass ..?” You could always rely on one thing over the years: the most famous guests come at the end. Whoever wanted to see world stars like Madonna or Michael Jackson had to be patient.
Jackson has not been among the living for a long time and Madonna has already passed her best days. Thomas Gottschalk welcomed Helene Fischer on Saturday evening, knowing full well who he was looking at.
“In order to find world stars, we no longer have to go abroad”, he moderated Fischer, whom he described as “the most successful German-speaking artist of all time”, “on an equal footing with stars like Beyoncé, Taylor Swift and Rihanna”.
Helene Fischer sits for three hours at “Wetten, dass ..?”
You can see it that way – but would Beyoncé allow herself to be treated like Helene? When she took a seat on the bulky betting sofa, just 30 minutes had passed – and three long hours were still ahead of her.
First, she had to endure the mandatory interview. Although Fischer in an interview with the “Time” had talked about how reluctantly she shared her “most intimate emotional world with the public”, Gottschalk rode around on the pregnancy, which had become known through an indiscretion.
Fischer, very professional, made a good face for the bad game, tried to cover up the overarching question about her baby bump with a few trivialities, and was hit by Gottschalk: “Just say, it’s none of your business! You dare to do that also not, right? “. So that’s thanks for Fischer’s courtesy!
Thomas Gottschalk lets them stew
“You stay with me all evening. You don’t have to go to the plane”: With this sentence the presenter arrested the musician for spending the rest of the evening on the sofa.
Why the pregnant artist was not granted a later appearance and thus a significantly shorter time on the sofa, that will probably remain Gottschalk’s secret. Fischer bravely endured the sometimes excruciatingly long bets and inconsequential conversations. When, for example, actress Svenja Jung talked in detail about how great it was to shoot a double role, Helene Fischer endured this wasteland with a stoic grin.
Gottschalk had already asked the singer at the beginning of the question that many viewers should have been thinking: “How can a person stand it?” Helene Fischer had routinely smiled away that too.
