Dieter Bohlen returns to DSDS – that's for sure.
Pietro Lombardi should help him in the search for Germany's greatest singing talent.
Now only one woman is missing from the jury.
Cologne – About a month ago, Dieter Bohlen caused the sensation of the year.
After he had to say goodbye to his position as head of the DSDS jury in 2022, he will return in 2023 for the last season.
The pop titan also gets great support for this – because not only Pietro Lombardi is on the jury, newcomer Leony should also be on the RTL show.
Leonie Burger: Dieter Bohlen brings an unknown singer to the DSDS jury
After he proudly announced a few weeks ago that he would bring Pietro Lombardi back to the DSDS jury, fans speculated about the other jurors.
Dieter Bohlen should wish for the German rapper Shirin David, but is still waiting for an answer.
RTL left a question from tz.de about the last jury uncommented.
As bild.de should now have learned, newcomer Leony (born Leonie Burger) will sit next to Dieter Bohlen and Pietro Lombardi.
The fact that DSDS viewers do not yet jump up in complete ecstasy with this name may be due to the fact that Leony is not that well known.
In 2017 she released her debut single "Surrender", but it wasn't until 2021 that she really took off.
Her hit "Faded Love" stayed in the charts for a full 30 weeks.
Leony has mostly young fans, which is why getting her on the DSDS jury is a very tactical move by the pop titans.
Because DSDS could also reach a younger target group in the last season.
Ratings for DSDS
Almost 8.05 million people watched the first DSDS season.
In 2016 it was only 3.8 million.
When Dieter Bohlen had to leave the jury in 2022, the casting show fell into the basement.
Not even a million people watched the singing show on RTL.
Can Dieter Bohlen save the show one last time?
Is Shirin David also on the DSDS jury in 2023?
For Dieter Bohlen, Leony is no longer a stranger.
In 2020, they collaborated on a cover of the modern-talking hit Brother Louie.
It remains to be seen whether Shirin David will still be on the jury.
With three jurors, the minimum has already been reached.
A lot should change in the new and last DSDS season.
Dieter Bohlen has already announced "new ideas".
