Singer Lulu has to say goodbye to “Let’s Dance” in show nine. She now draws a conclusion on Instagram and sends warm words to her dance partner and a special colleague.
Singer Lulu commented on her “Let’s Dance” exit on Friday evening. In one Instagram Story Sarah Connor and Anna-Maria Ferchichi’s 32-year-old sister explains from the car the day after saying goodbye: “Unfortunately it wasn’t enough for Massi and me yesterday. We’re no longer there and we’re not allowed to continue dancing.” She is “really sad, but I gave everything from my side and I had wonderful experiences on ‘Let’s Dance’,” explains the musician. “It was an incredible adventure, everything I learned… I reached my limits and still never gave up. No matter how much my body hurt, we always kept going.”
She added in writing to her statement: “And I was allowed to dance my Magic Moment. That was my personal goal and I am very grateful that I was able to dedicate my Magic Moment to my husband.” She only has positive words for dance professional Massimo Sinató in her Instagram story: “Massimo was such a great dance trainer and partner.” The 32-year-old explains to the camera that she is now looking forward to the final and seeing her colleagues again. She also sent greetings to Tony Bauer, whom she will especially miss and wishes him to get better soon. “He has enriched us all so much, I have taken him so close to my heart.”
Motsi Mabuse demands respect
The 28-year-old danced on the RTL show (also via RTL+) still had his own magical moment on Friday, but he and the broadcaster had already announced that Bauer would be leaving afterwards for health reasons. The travel influencer Ann-Kathrin Bendixen got the call shortly before the new live show that she had to step in due to Bauer’s departure. As is the case this time, in such cases the dance couple who were last eliminated usually returns to the show.
Even chief critic Joachim Llambi was very gracious on the show and explained that Bendixen could be proud of himself. “For 24 hours […] “It was really crazy,” agreed Motsi Mabuse. Despite the considerable disadvantage, Bendixen scored 21 points and thus even her personal record. Most viewers had probably expected that Bendixen would be eliminated again despite her best performance, but not the influencer, but the singer Lulu had to go. Motsi Mabuse does not accept critical comments about the returnee’s decision and performance. She writes in an RTL Instagram post: “Respect for everyone. Writing evil from home is easy. Absolutely everyone is stepping on the gas, so please respect these people.”
