The elite of the pop world gathered at “The big hit surprise for Florian Silbereisen!” – but the musicians didn’t earn anything from the show.
Leipzig – Florian Silbereisen (42) was really tricked by ARD and surprised by his hit colleagues during a supposed “Riverboat” recording.
For the high-profile guests, the evening at “The Big Hit Surprise for Florian Silbereisen!” was not financially worth it.
Only came for Florian Silbereisen: Pop stars were not paid for TV surprises
Howard Carpendale (78), Marianne Rosenberg (69), Melissa Naschenweng (33) and many more gathered for Florian Silbereisen's 20th anniversary at the ARD "Feste" series.
Only Beatrice Egli (35) was missing from the guest list for “The big hit surprise for Florian Silbereisen!”
The DSDS winner had another commitment and could not take part in the show.
The evening would have been definitely worth it – because it was quite emotional.

But the pop stars had to be content with pure emotions and the presenter's beaming face - because as surprise guest Andy Borg (63) made it clear in person, he didn't see a cent for his appearance that evening.
The native Austrian had an XXL plate of paella in his luggage and, due to the difficult transport, still had a bone to pick with the production.
“I brought these with me especially - and I'm not getting any fee for this surprise today, but I would like you to maybe take over the chair that I had to pay for on the plane for this shitty paella,” he wished laughing himself.
Even if he doesn't earn any money for his visit to the show, Barbara Schöneberger (50) and Florian Silbereisen assured him that he won't be left behind at any expense.
Andy Borg and Florian Silbereisen reminisce together
Apparently no journey was too far for Florian Silbereisen, so Andy Borg and the other guests made their way to Leipzig without a fee.
The “Schlager-Fuß” presenter has experienced a lot with his colleague in recent years.
He fondly remembers a spectacular moment.
“I remember a show in Graz where he didn’t come over the show stairs, but flew into the exhibition center hanging from a helicopter,” he said.
