Giovanni Zarrella: Bitter criticism of his show

Giovanni Zarrella: Why does he always invite the same guests to his shows?

On Saturday evening (21 September, 8:15 p.m. on ZDF), the crème de la crème of pop music will meet again at the “Giovanni Zarrella Show”. In the new edition of his music show, Giovanni Zarrella (46) welcomes musicians such as Howard Carpendale, Kerstin Ott, Matthias Reim, Ben Zucker and Maite Kelly. Numerous pop music fans will gather in front of their screens as usual. But Does the show perhaps lack diversity? Giovanni certainly has to listen to this criticism very often – a fate that he shares with his colleague Florian Silbereisen (43). Because the same names can always be found on the guest list. A fact that Giovanni Zarrella does not deny.

The former casting show winner explains to the “Münchner Zeitung”: “Of course there are some artists who perform in shows around the world, but most of them are simply because the audience loves them.” love and appreciate.” He wants his shows “exciting and varied” It is therefore very important to him “Finding a good mix and also new talents to provide a stage”, emphasizes Giovanni Zarrella.

Schlager legend Heintje would like to appear in Giovanni's show

But maybe it's also long-established pop stars that fans would like to see in their element again. Hein Simons (68), alias Heintje, recently took the pop music industry to task. The “Mama” singer's latest albums have made it into at least the top 20 of the charts in recent years. However, he is never seen on shows such as the “Giovanni Zarrella Show” or Florian Silbereisen's “Feste” shows, which makes Hein Simons quite sad, as he recently revealed to “Freizeitvergnügen”: “I used to be on these shows a lot, why am I now no longer invited I don't understand why I will either.

Maybe Giovanni will pluck up the courage after these words and send out a few more invitations next time. Not only would Heintje be happy, but probably also the older pop fans who loved the singer when he sang “Mama” in the 70s.
