Star designer Harald Glööckler, 59, reminisces about his time as a juror on the popular dance show Let’s Dance, where he shared the panel with strict judge Joachim Llambi, 60. Their contrasting personalities created a dynamic chemistry that resonated with both viewers and contestants during the seasons aired in 2010 and 2011.
Appearing on the current TV show Du gewinnst hier nicht die Million bei Stefan Raab, Glööckler reflected on his unique experiences with Llambi, where he humorously recounted, "Wir hatten kein Verhältnis. Er ist nicht mein Typ." This playful comment set the tone for a lighthearted discussion about their time together.
During their collaboration, many found the juxtaposition of Glööckler’s flamboyant and extravagant persona against Llambi’s critical and often harsh critiques to be particularly entertaining. While Glööckler is known for his love of glitter and showmanship, Llambi is feared for his razor-sharp assessments.
Llambi also shared his fond memories of Glööckler, especially regarding how he treated his daughters, Helena and Katharina. "Er war auch damals ganz lieb zu meinen damals noch zwei kleinen Töchtern. Da gab es auch mal einen Glitzerring," Llambi recalled warmly, cherishing the moments when Glööckler would dote on his young girls, providing them with glitzy gifts. This playful gesture left a lasting impression on the daughters, adding a dash of sparkle to their backstage encounters.
Interestingly, Glööckler added his twist to the story, confirming that both girls found him far more interesting than their father back then. Laughing, he mentioned, "Mein Äußeres hat im Vergleich zu Papa Llambi schlicht mehr hergegeben." This confidence in his appearance exemplifies the designer’s characteristic charm and charisma.
With their time on Let’s Dance, both Glööckler and Llambi created unforgettable moments marked by humor and competitiveness. Although Glööckler is no longer part of the jury, he has great fondness for his experiences on the show. The memories remain fresh, both for him and audiences who enjoyed witnessing their spirited exchanges.
As for a potential return to Let’s Dance, Glööckler was non-committal but hinted that his involvement would definitely not be boring. While he may not currently be a juror, the vibrant energy he brought to the show lingers in the hearts of fans. It’s clear that Glööckler's time on the show remains an exciting chapter in his illustrious career.
In the world of dance competition, where star power and personality are vital, the memories curated by Glööckler alongside Llambi stand as a testament to the charm of Let’s Dance. Viewers can undoubtedly appreciate the blend of elegance, critique, and humor that Glööckler and Llambi provided them, making for captivating television.
