Band family minister Lisa Paus (Greens) does not believe that the allegations against Rammstein singer Till Lindemann are an isolated case. “Without prejudice in the specific case: the way I perceive the discussion, we have a structural problem in the concert scene that is finally being talked about,” she told the “Bild am Sonntag”.
“I can understand that the after-show parties of the Rammstein concerts in Berlin have now been banned,” Paus continued. But this can only be the first step. “The organizers have the task of protecting young fans in particular.”
Several women have had serious allegations against them in the past few weeks Lindemann raised. They described to the Norddeutscher Rundfunk and the “Süddeutsche Zeitung” how young women were apparently specifically recruited for sex with the singer. Two women also reported alleged sexual acts that they would not have consented to. The band denied the allegations.
According to Paus, the case reveals a fundamental problem: “Some public events are not organized in such a way that women and girls can really feel safe.” There are “stars who clearly abuse their position of power over women”. Both of these must change, the minister demanded.
