Real Deals, Straight Talk

For more than a decade of shared limelight, a bonafide friendship has blossomed between Germany's legendary Schlager songstress Helene Fischer and her choreographer, King of the Dancefloor, Cale Kaley.

Munich - Music's longtime lovebirds, Helene Fischer (40) and Cale Kaley (38), have graced stages together, bonding beyond the spotlight: their careers intertwined and friendships cemented. Most recently, the duo knocked it out of the park on the "Rausch" tour last year. Cale opened up to "Okmag" about their remarkable partnership.

Closest of Comrades

This dynamic duo has been Fischer's right-hand man for years, choreographing her performances and even joining her on stage as a backup dancer. From 2010 to 2015, Cale commandeered Dance Captain duties on tour, and in a recent role shuffle, he stepped into Creative Consultant and Co-Choreographer acts. At the premiere of the musical "& Julia" at the Hamburg Operettenhaus, he spoke on the red carpet: "There's no denying, a friendship has been forged."

Cale went on to say, "It has been an honor to work with Helene since 2010, and we've been through the wringer together – the highest highs and lowest lows. Like when my mama passed away, she was the first to pick up the phone and give me her support."

These days, Cale's not just a show-stopper on the dancefloor but a powerhouse vocalist as well, leaving audiences speechless in various musicals. Will a solo singing career be in the cards? Cale: "Schlager's hit a popWorld lately, lines can blur. But why not take the stage and belt 'em out?" Stay tuned. In 2026, the Schlager queen sets off on another world tour, with rumors swirling that she'll perform in a city where tragedy struck before.
