Dieter Bohlen caused a sexism scandal at “DSDS”.
The final season of “Deutschland sucht den Superstar” is currently overshadowed by a sexism scandal. Dieter Bohlen (68) causes outrage in the fourth episode, which will be broadcast on TV on Wednesday and is already online on RTL+. The pop titan asked candidate Jill Lange (22) whether she had done something “normal” in life or just graduated from high school and then “let herself be noodled through”. The background: Lange was seen in trash TV shows like “Are You The One” and “Ex on the Beach” and had sex there. She later reported Bohlen’s insult in tears on Instagram.
But that’s not the only offensive spell in this episode. Dieter Bohlen and the off-speaker shake their heads several times with their comments.
Off-speaker shocks with sayings
The off-speaker comments sarcastically on pictures of Jill Lange on the beach: “Yes, where Jill is, there is quality TV.” When Lange says that you can have a lot of fun with her, the off-speaker adds suggestively: “… especially as a man.”
It also becomes uncomfortable for candidate Leonarda Vokshi (21) when she walks down the stairs. Because she wears high heels, she holds on to the railing. “You should have put on sneakers,” says Bohlen. Vokshi argues that she is then too small. “It doesn’t matter, delicacies are always small,” said Bohlen with undisguised sexism. When he asks Vokshi if she’s doing a show for the singing, she just emphasizes that he should be surprised. As soon as she turns her back on Bohlen, she doubles up: “Oh, with ass shaking.”
Crocodile bites Katja Krasavice in the chest
Not even juror Katja Krasavice (26) is spared. The four members of the jury perform the “Schnappi” song during a break. Appropriately, an animated crocodile appears on the screen. So far so good – but then the rapper bites her chest – so the problem seems to lie not only with Dieter Bohlen, but with the entire broadcasting team. (bsn)
