Media career – Elton: Welcome career!

The film and television business is a tank cabinet of clamping drawers. The escape from it is almost impossible. Ask Heino Ferch and Christine Neubauer! In general, professionals were reserved for decades who had worked their way up. Coaching entrants remained the exception, even sidekicks shimmering stars such as Bill Ramsey or Trude Mr. were deep rooted stage plants with charisma, talent and tools.

What a difference to Elton! Alexander Duszat’s qualification, as he was baptized in Berlin in 1971, has an apprenticeship as a television technician plus part -time experience in the local radio of his second home. Stefan Raab’s show intern was much more when he started the most amazing screen career since Til Schweiger in 2001.

From “Elton travels” to Elton, from “1, 2 or 3” to “Eltons 12”, from “all against a” to “Elton vs. Simon”, from “The Dome” to “The Alm”, from the outer reporter at “Wetten, …?” Up to four shows with “Schlag the” in the title-for 20 years there has been no too many privacy under public law or privately without the pug moderator. It is currently visible in eight formats. Seven to be precise. Because now his era ends as the Council Fox of the ARD series “Who knows something like that?” And what is worth a special program for the trained securities dealer Kai Pflaume, Saturday 8:15 p.m., can also be honored here.

Neither Telegen nor eloquent, neither sporty nor charming, Elton has long stayed in the attention industry. This persistence, paired with an unprecedented lack of vanity, has certainly contributed to democratization of the entertainment industry, the aristocracy of which rarely kept the fingers crossed when Plebejer and Elton admission. But it succeeds. Sometimes. For example, at the summit of a popping -free escape of reality: Here Roberto Blanco became the black mascot of the white middle class and suggested diversity to the 80s, where there was mere oily tolerance. The same applies to Hella von Sinnen: lesbian, thick and coarse, the opposite of what was considered feminine, she rumbled in front of the RTL cameras and just stayed.

Cindy from Marzahn was also an accident in entertainment when she made it into the mainstream via Markus Lanz ‘Bettcouch. After all, Ilka Bessin had trained her art figure on 1000 stages. Harry Wijnvoord, on the other hand, had only been behind it before becoming the face of the hedonistic private television dilettantism. From the stutterer to the fast speaker (Dieter Thomas Heck), from the technician to teen-idol (Andreas Türck), from the weather announcement to talk show god (David Letterman), from victims of abuse to billionaire (Oprah Winfrey)-sometimes television is permeable.

This was the only reason why the RTL comedian Olli Dittrich has become the most effective parodist of German German sensitivities since Loriot. This was the only way to achieve comedy colleague Anke Engelke escaped from the “weekly show” to the character actress. And this was the only way to make it in the “ZDF Morgen Magazine” at the summit of the baseball club years and shaped it like no other. About his epigones from Dunja Hayali to Jana Pareigis, 33 years later, the AfD is still eternal. Nevertheless, marginalized groups in film and television remain underrepresented. This is also why Christine Ursprung is noticeable. Started as an object of de-static malice of Prof. Boerne’s “crime scene”, her lawyer of the ARD series “Objection, Schatz!” even be sexually active.

The times change and thus the seal of approval of profitable careers. Reality TV and social media rinse dozens of career changers into the spotlight of classic channels every year. The most bizarre success is probably that of Menderes Bağcı. Starting as a Bohlen Nemesis in 15 seasons “DSDS”, the completely talent-free ramp sow is not only part of the inventory of the trash entertainment; He is part of Jan Böhmermann’s “ZDF Magazin Royale”. So far, not even Elton has made it into this drawer.
