Hey, Pal! Who's Stepping In for Kiwi on ZDF-Fernsehgarten's Anniversary Bash?
Identifying the Moderators to Be Swapped Out - Who are the new moderators taking over from?
Here's the lowdown: Andrea Kiewel (60), the revered host of ZDF-Fernsehgarten, ain't makin' it to the jubilee edition 'cause she's stuck in Israel due to Middle East unrest closing the airspace. The ZDF's officially confirmed this, and they've already rounded up a couple of replacements - Joachim Llambi (60), a "Let's Dance" judge, and Lutz van der Horst (49), a hilarious comedian. Get the deets on these stand-ins, the stellar lineup, and Kiwi's Israel adventure!
ZDF-Fernsehgarten: The Show Must Go On with Kiwi's Substitutes
Joachim Llambi and Lutz van der Horst have been tapped to fill in for Andrea Kiewel on this Sunday's ZDF-Fernsehgarten. The cat's out of the bag! According to spot on news, these dudes were previously planned as guests, with Llambi even lined up as a co-host at some point.
Fernsehgarten sans Kiwi: The Guest List Stays Put
The lineup remains as star-studded as ever, people: The upcoming "ZDF-Fernsehgarten" episode is set to be a whopper, with "companions, prominent guests, and international stars" ready to party in honor of Kiwi's 25th anniversary.
Some of the big names on the list? René Casselly (28) and Kathrin Menzinger (36), bringing their "Let's Dance" magic to the stage with a dance performance. Musical acts include Tom Gaebel, Loona X Dennis Dies, Marquess, Alle Achtung, and German ESC veterans like Katja Ebstein and Guildo Horn. Johnny Logan, Ireland's two-time Eurovision winner, will also join the lineup. Keep an eye out for Marianne Rosenberg sharing a unique duet with rapper Eko Fresh!
The sole exception to the guest list is, of course, Kiwi herself. Stuck in Israel with her son and Israeli partner since 2017, she'll have to catch the show from afar - too bummed to miss her own anniversary celebration!
