The RTL jungle camp started its 15th season on Friday evening. Right at the beginning, the first disgust test was waiting for the celebrities.
The jungle camp 2022 is officially open. Daniel Hartwich (43) and Sonja Zietlow (53) reported live for the first time on Friday evening (January 21) and from nighttime South Africa at the start of the 15th anniversary season of “I’m a Star – Get Me Out of Here!” at RTL (also at RTL+). In the first episode, the celebrities went high, on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was typical jungle culinary. Moving into the camp also brought initial tensions.
Power woman at height
Actually, twelve celebrities should move into the camp, but Lucas Cordalis (54) has to “still” wait for his move in due to a positive corona test. Zietlow promised the remaining celebrities that “everything might be settled” and that the singer could still join the group.
It was for the self-proclaimed reality TV queen Tara Tabitha (28), “Bachelorette” candidate Filip Pavlovic (27), model Janina Youssefian (39), “GZSZ” star Eric Stehfest (32) and Harald Glööckler (56). first by helicopter to the first challenge at dizzy heights. The stars tried to cross balls at a height of 40 meters one after the other. The star waited with a leap into nothingness. The Austrian Tara Tabitha was not deterred by her fear of heights and weak arms and was surprisingly the only celebrity to win the star.
The actresses Tina Ruland (55) and Anouschka Renzi (57), Jasmin Herren (43), Willi Herren’s widow (1975-2021), “Bachelor” candidate and “Playboy” cover star Linda Nobat (26), “Prince Charming” participant and Glööckler fan Manuel Flickinger (33) and bodyguard and actor Peter Althof (66) initially went on a supposedly relaxed safari tour. But they too had to face the first challenge and rappel down a cliff. For this they were rewarded with six stars.
Plated up body parts
It was then culinary for the whole group. In the first joint jungle test “Rooting, Knowledge, Choking”, the celebrities had to feel in a hole in the table which part of the body was in it. If they guessed correctly, they were served a piece, if they guessed wrong, they had to eat two pieces.
Served under the eyes of camp doctor Dr. Bob, among other things, impala lungs, kudu penises or warthog testicles. True to the game’s title, the chewed food didn’t always make it into the stars’ stomachs. After all, the eleven candidates fought for five stars. “Jasmin, you’re the only woman who got a star,” praised Daniel Hartwich. Pavlovic was the only man who didn’t bring a star to the camp.
Camp ambience makes long faces
Linda Nobat finds “everything disgusting”, Pavlovic had imagined it to be “a little bigger” and Youssefian thought her new home was “somehow nicer”: the celebrities were not impressed by the new jungle camp. Only Glööckler was realistic and knew about the fact that he didn’t end up in a “five-star wellness hotel”. The distribution of beds, the allocation of cigarettes, the “really disgusting” cleaning of the toilets, according to Renzi, and the distribution of food immediately caused initial discussions and long faces.
Tensions were quickly felt, especially between the women: Among other things, Youssefian and Ruland got into a fight with Nobat over the tofu and Ruland and Renzi got into a fight over a used towel. Renzi does not want to become a “Tina bully”, but according to his own statements, he will not avoid any arguments. Did she shoot herself out of the audience? Because for the first single jungle test on Saturday in the underwater cage, in which some little animals will be waiting, the actress has to compete after the audience vote.
