She's been a television mainstay ever since, with her slightly plump physique lending her numerous roles.

She aspires to break the world record for the oldest "Let's Dance" champion, stating, "If I can conquer my fears and stress, I dream of myself and my dance partner becoming the oldest 'Let's Dance' winners worldwide."

If she wins, she will become the oldest "Let's Dance" champion in history, surpassing the record currently unidentified. Given her age of 62, it will be quite a spectacle for the dancers, including her partner Valentin Lusin, on the RTL stage guided by judges Motsi Mabuse, Joachim Llambi, and Jorge Gonzalez.
