The RTL jungle test takes an unexpected turn. A candidate is fed up with team play. Meanwhile, two other campers compare themselves to the heroine of a children’s book.
Actor Eric Stehfest aborted an exam in the RTL jungle camp before it began. The 32-year-old said the sentence “I’m a star – get me out of here!” on Sunday, right after his job was explained to him.
In the evening there was a second surprise: All candidates are allowed to stay on the show for another day.
“Because Lucas didn’t come in at all and because Janina has already left, we’re going to sit out,” said moderator Daniel Hartwich (43) the waiver of the ejection. Model Janina Youssefian had to leave the show early last Monday after making a racist statement. The singer Lucas Cordalis was not even able to move into the jungle camp because of a positive corona test.
Standing firm refuses examination
Standing firm and bodyguard Peter Althof (66) were sent on day 10 of the live broadcast by their camp members in the jungle test entitled “River with funny”. In the test they were to be left in a cage in a river. GZSZ star Stehfest didn’t even want to try to collect the stars that were to be converted in Essen. “I’m actually not afraid, it’s just that there are people in the camp who openly say that they think I’m really shit,” said the actor.
“That’s why I’m not willing to earn food for people who don’t like me.” Stehfest explained that he himself had never eaten any of the food that the others had earned in the past few days. “I only eat rice and drink water, that’s enough for me.” With Stehfest’s resignation, Althof was also forced to abandon the exam.
regrets in the evening
Back at the camp, Stehfest announced that he might not want to follow the rules in the future. Filip Pavlovic called it “really weak”, Linda Nobat found Stehfest’s action “ruthless, selfish and just shit”. Stehfest initially appeared indifferent. “There’s no team for me,” he clarified. Later in the evening, the actor was remorseful: “Some things could still be clarified during the day”.
In addition, there was more explosive material in the television jungle on Sunday: Nobat was further annoyed by her fellow campers who wanted to talk her into preparing the food. (“Too many cooks oversalt the soup – and they just don’t get it!”) Harald Glööckler and Anouschka Renzi reflected that after ten days in the camp they felt like Alice in Wonderland – and Tina Ruland see them in their jungle wonderland in the role of the evil queen of hearts.
Without being kicked out on Sunday, there are still eight candidates in the race for the jungle crown on Monday. Due to the corona, the 15th season of the reality show is being created in South Africa instead of in Australia as it used to be.
