“Showtime of my Life – Stars Against Cancer” was moved to tears Monday night. In Vox’s two-part documentary, 16 stars declared war on cancer, stripping naked. The goal of the show: Get people to go to the doctor, as moderator Guido Maria Kretschmer (55) explains: “Our celebrities prove that you can get naked in front of an audience of millions. And if he can do it, then in front of his doctor. “The project is particularly close to him. His parents contracted cancer at the same time.
In the first part of the show, the women were allowed to run first. Therefore, the focus was on the issue of breast cancer. “Every day in Germany, a woman gets breast cancer every eight minutes. We have 189 women every day who have to deal with this diagnosis, ”says Kretschmer. This is why early detection is so important.
How cancer shaped the stars
This is also demonstrated by Nicole Staudinger (39), one of eight women who abandon their cover-ups for a good cause. The author developed breast cancer at age 32: “I undress because I know how important early diagnosis is: I am living proof that seeing a doctor on time can save lives.” However, he still suffers from the disease to this day.
Through tears, she explains: “I have stopped being a woman.” Of the eight women, all have been linked to cancer. Former national goalkeeper Nadine Angerer (42) says: “My mother had cancer. My aunt had bladder cancer. My other aunt died of cancer. “A dangerous precursor to cervical cancer was discovered in his wife during filming.
In addition to illness, body awareness was also a problem. After all, women should be comfortable when dancing on stage in light clothing and then standing topless later. Actress Mimi Fiedler (45) used to struggle with her appearance. “I went from a perfect body to an imperfect one,” says the “Nightsisters” actress. But his mind has become healthier. Because Fielder was battling an addiction, as he says through tears: “I suffer from a chronic illness. I’m an alcoholic but I’m dry and healthy. “
Motsi Mabuse rehearsed the choreography
After the women had already exposed their insides, it was time to remove their clothes. They were assisted by the professional dancer Motsi Mabuse (39). The “Let’s Dance” jury has rehearsed a choreography for the women that they will then perform in front of their family and friends at the Admiralspalast in Berlin. Thanks to Corona, no other spectators could be present.
But that was not necessary. Those present cheered on the women, cheered and clapped as they stripped off their clothes to the tune of Destinys Childs’s “Survivor” and the striptease classic “Fever”. In the end, they even dropped their glitter bras and stood there in just tiny pants.
“Some of the best I’ve seen on TV lately!”
The show sparked excitement from the audience. “Stars Against Cancer” is probably the best, most beautiful and important program that airs this year and that has been shown, “says a user on Twitter.
Another reveals that her eyes are not dry: “Some of the best I’ve seen on TV lately! I have shed several tears in less than an hour … »
And the anticipation of the appearance of the men is also increasing: “Great show! Getting really close to me right now. And if only a fraction of viewers go to preventive care during the show, it was worth it! The ladies presented strongly today. I also look forward to the gentlemen. “
Viewers don’t have to wait long. The second part with the men will be broadcast on Vox on Tuesday night. (bsn)
