Sad news for “Let’s Dance” fans: Tony Bauer has to leave the show for health reasons. A decision has already been made regarding his replacement. The comedian can be seen on the dance floor again in the upcoming show.
Comedian Tony Bauer is leaving the RTL show “Let’s Dance” for health reasons. The broadcaster announced this this evening. “It’s great fun and that’s exactly why it’s so sad for me,” the 28-year-old said of his departure.
“But the energy, vitamins, nutrients and minerals I need now for full dance training can no longer be covered by parenteral nutrition alone. Other people can eat to compensate for the energy deficit , but unfortunately I can’t!” says Bauer. “That’s why I’m forced to listen to my body so as not to risk anything permanently.”
However, there is small consolation for Bauer fans. In the ninth live show, the comedian will dance again, but out of competition. “My wish is still to dance the ‘Magic Moment’ tomorrow,” says Bauer. “The show has given me so much and I love everything about it. Thank you for letting me be there and get to know you all.”
Last week, Bauer celebrated his personal best with professional dancer Anastasia Stan. The influential Ann-Kathrin Bendixen is returning to the show for him. The 24-year-old was eliminated last week and will be back on the dance floor tomorrow with her dance partner Valentin Lusin.
When Bauer was nine years old, his small intestine died and had to be surgically removed. Since then, he has also had to eat astronaut food, which is fed directly into the blood vessels through an implant in his chest. Therefore, the 28-year-old is often seen with a backpack that ensures this type of nutrition. Bauer has to carry him for 17 hours a day, unless he is hungry.
“Let’s Dance” can be seen every Friday at 8:15pm on RTL. Of course there is the show also available on RTL+.
