Oktoberfest 2023 is entering the home stretch. If you haven’t made it to the festival meadow yet, you should hurry up. And well-known people who want to use the festival to perhaps become a little more famous should do their best. Although the Oktoberfest is a folk festival where photographers wait, it is also a cut-throat competition: the flashlight only catches those who offer something. Like Harald Glööckler for example.
The traditional vest is open five buttons: This reveals what’s underneath – a shirt with few buttons, a not seamlessly tanned upper body and a tattoo that raises the question of what the artist was supposed to get.
There was little to see on his Oktoberfest outfit of the rhinestones and glitter that Glööckler’s creations usually adorn. But what was particularly noticeable was that he had already shown the leather pants, blue vest, neon fingernails combination a few days before in Stuttgart, at the Cannstatter Wasen.
For people who may not be familiar with Iris Klein, she is the mother of reality TV star Daniela Katzenberger and is working on increasing her own reality TV fame – currently with a push to get her into Playboy. Gladly naked. Désirée Nick, who can be seen on the current cover of the magazine, has just Picturenewspaper said that she didn’t think that was a good idea: “I don’t want to see the woman selling me potatoes naked at the weekly market.” At the Oktoberfest, Ms. Klein already demonstrated what could be an ambience for a shoot: something with cuddly toys.
Fear of contact apparently doesn’t inhibit them much either. At the Oktoberfest she publicly introduced her new boyfriend for the first time, whom she calls Mr. T. – a little shrouded in mystery – and who didn’t want to take off his dark sunglasses as long as the photographers were nearby. Their works bear witness to the fact that Mrs. K. has at least as much control over her Mr. T. as she does over her beer mug.
Yes, they still exist: faces that have been familiar to this city for a long time and that can only be seen again at the Oktoberfest. Miroslav Klose (born in Opole/Poland and active for FC Bayern from 2007 to 2011) for example. Beyond the penalty area he was rather inconspicuous, one of his hobbies: fishing. After coaching positions at FC Bayern (U17, assistant coach with the triple professionals), he was most recently active at the Austrian Bundesliga club SCR Altach. After finishing the main phase in March as bottom of the table, Klose has more time for his hobbies and visiting the Oktoberfest.
A real “Wiesn-Broffi”, on the other hand, can be seen here: Lothar Matthäus (birthplace Erlangen) caused a bit of a stir this Oktoberfest season because he kissed one of his ex-wives (Anastasia Klimko, wife number five after Silvia) on the festival grounds , Lolita, Marijana and Liliana). On Sunday he had fun in a men’s group with, among others, H’ugo’s owner Ugo Crocamo.
Lisa Loch (birthplace Essen) once became known through Stefan Raab, who extensively repeated a film excerpt from her application for Miss Alemania (“My name is Lisa Loch and I am 16 years old”) in his show “TV total”. So extensively that a court later awarded her a five-figure sum in damages. The experience didn’t keep her away from the TV business. Most recently she was part of the Bild-TV presenter team.
Silke Popp has been starring in the BR series “Dahoam is Dahoam” since 2010. She doesn’t pass off as a real Munich child either (place of birth: Marktredwitz in the Fichtelgebirge). But she attended acting school in Munich and studied communication science at the LMU, among other things – which means she can be considered a local star in this series.
