The record for the shortest broadcast on “Schlag den Star” is 0:02. Leony (26) almost cracked this on Saturday evening on ProSieben when she defeated Stefanie Giesinger (27). At 12:05 a.m., the former “DSDS” juror accepted the suitcase including the 100,000 euros. Model and singer previously had a fair head-to-head race.
Stefanie Giesinger despaired at “Schlag den Star”
Leony’s performances in the first two games “rolling the ball” and “ladder slalom” were already impressive. Particularly in the latter, she showed herself to be nimble and agile as she quickly climbed up and down the ladder steps. Giesinger was already having a bit of a hard time with the game: “I hate it. Why did I take part here?”
The two women then provided entertainment with the “Bagger Puzzle”. As the game title suggests, they had to complete a cat puzzle using a large excavator. One or two parts broke. “That was an interesting sound. What just broke?” asked commentator Ron Ringguth (57) with amusement. Giesinger almost had victory in his pocket, but one piece of the puzzle was inserted the wrong way. Leony saw her chance and took victory again.
Stefanie Giesinger: “How annoying, I hate losing”
“How annoying, I hate losing,” was Giesinger’s conclusion after the “ice bike race.” Leony’s handball experience was also noticeable in the game “Carousel Ball”. Shortly before midnight there was a match point game in which the two women had to recite proverbs like “The rats are abandoning the sinking ship” backwards. Leony was faster and at 12:05 a.m. came the relieving blast of confetti rain. “It was nice to play against you,” said Giesinger and hugged her opponent.
Leony summed up: “It was great, of course, because I won. But apart from that, it was a nice evening. It was fun with Steffi.”
