Twelfth day in the Tiny House: The last three candidates fought on Tuesday for a place in the semi-finals of the "big jungle show".
The candidates for the semi-finals of "I'm a Star – The Great Jungle Show" on RTL (also on TVNow) have been decided! In the last group of applicants around Djamila Rowe (53), Xenia Princess of Saxony (34) and ex- "Bachelorette" candidate Filip Pavlovic (28), it was decided on January 26th who would continue to have the chance of a ticket for the TV Jungle in the coming year. In addition, it was about the difficult past of Xenia von Sachsen and a challenge to a boxing match.
The cigarettes again?
If the night before the lack of cigarettes at Xenia – and as a result also in the entire Tiny House – had caused a bad mood, the situation threatened to escalate at first glance on Tuesday. Filip wanted to bring up the subject again, he wasn't the type to shut up. You also have to show people their limits. "Sometimes it's better not to say anything," warned Djamila, but the situation should ease unexpectedly quickly. Xenia and Filip agreed that the night before it had been a cigarette misunderstanding and with a hug everything was forgotten again. "I let myself go," Xenia later admitted.
"Djamila Rowe Klitschko II." then break down during boxing training with Filip. She "licked blood" and after the short session made an announcement to Désirée Nick (64, "The paint stays on!"). Djamila challenged them to a boxing match in front of the camera. Before that, the 53-year-old had to watch a few "Rambo" films. The only question is why she didn't think of "Rocky" instead in this context.
"The girl with the tumor"
Xenia later told the fate she had to endure as a child and adolescent. She had bone cancer that was discovered when she was ten years old. The now 34-year-old could not have an operation and had to live with it for eleven more years. In her area Xenia was only known as "the girl with the tumor". The specialist staff at a clinic in Berlin finally dared to operate on them. At that time, "half of the skull plate was removed", luckily everything went well. Afterwards Xenia "became a much better person". She is sure: "If it comes back now, I'll do it again." It is important to "pass on something that makes something positive" out of everything.
In the "jungle test suitability test", the trio had to reach into small boxes filled with different animals such as rats, snakes and crabs, as is so often the case. The candidates should feel how many animals are in it and solve arithmetic problems with the corresponding digits or numbers in the team. They didn't find the right solutions. "It was really crappy", Filip sums up consequently.
In the end it was decided who would follow Zoe Saip (21), Mike Heiter (28), Lydia Kelovitz (30), Lars Tönsfeuerborn (31), Christina Dimitriou (29) and Sam Dylan (29) into the semi-finals. The speechless Djamila and Filip were chosen by the audience. Xenia, who quipped that she had been looking forward to possibly being able to eat "testicles or penis", was not granted this. She had to leave the "big jungle show".
