Actually, an already filmed documentary about the pop star was supposed to appear on the streaming service. But the publication was stopped.
She is one of the most successful German-speaking singers, has been celebrating huge successes for years and performs in front of sold-out halls. In 2023, Helene Fischer thrilled hundreds of thousands of fans on her “Rausch” arena tour with over 70 concerts. The mega event and the months before were covered by a camera team.
A Netflix documentary should show intimate insights behind the scenes and personal moments – and also shed light on a shocking moment. There was a bloody trapeze accident during one of the pop star’s shows; Helene Fischer was injured and had to take a break. Friends and companions should also have their say.
The documentary was already finished, but it will not be broadcast. A Netflix spokeswoman confirmed this to “Bild”. According to the newspaper, the reason for this is differences between the singer and the streaming service. There was no agreement as to which scenes would stay in and which would not. In the end the whole deal fell through.
Netflix has released numerous documentaries about various superstars in the past. Including Robbie Williams, Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga, who all spoke very openly about personal topics in front of the camera. Was that too private for Helene Fischer? The singer is known for being extremely protective of her private life.
Almost nothing is known about her relationship with the dancer Thomas Seitel and their daughter. The documentary may have given too deep an insight into her life that she ultimately didn’t want to show to an audience of millions. Helene Fischer has not yet commented on the failed project. Your management left a request unanswered.
