Valentin Lusin’s dance partner Ann-Kathrin Bendixen talks about big plans after “Let’s Dance”
Valentin Lusin, 37, and dance partner Ann-Kathrin Bendixen, 24, are back in the middle of training for the fifth “Let’s Dance” show after the birth of his baby Stella. “I’m putting 100% into this project right now and I’m amazed at how I’ve come to love it,” writes Bendixen in a new post on Instagram. These are thoughtful words that the travel influencer shares with her almost 500,000 followers.
Her head is currently “so caught up in ambition” and her “body is just focused on getting better.” The globetrotter normally hates routine more than anything, but on “Let’s Dance” – a format that requires training routines – she gets to know herself in a new way. “I actually don’t miss my travels at all because I know that they will continue afterwards,” says Valentin Lusin’s dance partner. And she already has a rough plan: “I can imagine flying to New Zealand after ‘Let’s Dance’ and riding a motorbike there… I’m still totally unsure how, where and when it will continue.” Maybe she also wants to travel “to the North Cape with the Harley” again. Ann-Kathrin Bendixen shares recordings of her last motorcycle tour before moving on to the next dance steps.

Valentin Lusin is training again just a few days after the birth of his daughter
On March 21, 2024, Renata, 36, and Valentin Lusin, 37, became parents for the first time; little Stella was born healthy and happy. Just a few days after the birth of his daughter, Valentin has to temporarily break away from his small family again in order to prepare for the fifth “Let’s Dance” live show with dance partner Ann-Kathrin Bendixen, 24. And the training is tough.
“That’s what I call a trainer, it’s only on my cell phone,” says Bendixen in her Instagram story while filming Valentin Lusin lying on the ground. “I can’t even be strict today,” the 37-year-old admits, visibly exhausted, but then gathers all his strength and shouts loudly to his partner, “Repeat!” to. She jokingly comments on this outburst with the words “Goodnight, Valentine”. The lack of sleep over the last few days seems to be starting to take its toll on the new father.

Lina Larissa Strahl is now excited with this couple after the end of “Let’s Dance”.
They were in the good midfield, but at the end of the fourth show the actress had had it Lina Larissa Strahl, 26, and “Let’s Dance” professional Zsolt Sándor Cseke, 36, danced out. A shock for those watching and the other celebrities and professionals. Strahl “will miss it all a lot,” she then said in the comments under her farewell video on the “Let’s Dance” Instagram channel. But she continues to be excited – for a very specific couple.
“Of course I’m particularly excited [bei] “Malika Dzumaev, 33, and Gabriel Kelly, 22,” who danced their way to first place in the last show, Lina Larissa tells “Promiflash.” Mariia Maksina, 26, and Stefano Zarrella, 33, as well as Lulu are also among her favorites Lewe and Massimo Sinató, 43. She doesn’t mention other names like those of Ekaterina Leonova, 36, and Detlef Soost, 53. But Strahl assures that she would of course keep her fingers crossed for “all couples.” Both from Lina Larissa Strahl doesn’t want to say goodbye to the show itself or to her dance partner completely. Zsolt Sándor Cseke has grown close to her heart. “We talk on the phone often and I think we will definitely meet again privately, even before the finale,” she said the actress.
Amazement among “Let’s Dance” fans: Where do Ekaterina Leonova and Detlef Soost train?
Detlef Soost, 53, and Ekaterina Leonova, 36, are convincing in the current season of “Let’s Dance” and have already secured a following of fans through their performances. On Instagram, viewers not only follow the shared posts from the show, but also get insights behind the scenes from the dancing couple. But that is exactly what is currently causing confusion. Apparently the two are not in Germany to prepare for the next dance. Ekaterina contacts her fans to enlighten them.
“We are in Turkey,” said the 36-year-old in her Instagram story. She further explains: “We are here because Detlef has to work here. He does a mix of family vacation and work.” However, the training would not suffer. Although the ex-“Popstars” coach has obligations in the morning, he would prepare for the upcoming show from midday to evening. “We’re still busy training. The new dance is killing us,” admits the professional dancer with a laugh. It is unknown when the two will return to Germany. What is certain is that both have to be on the live stage of “Let’s Dance” on Friday evening at 8:15 p.m. It remains to be seen whether the hard training will pay off.

Joachim Llambi causes annoyance in the audience
The harsh comments and trained eye of Joachim Llambi, 59, are simply part of “Let’s Dance”. The judge doesn’t mince his words when assessing the dances. An approach for which Llambi not only receives sympathy – neither from the participants nor from the audience. On Friday, March 22, 2024, he will also attract the displeasure of the audience. The reason for this is his harsh criticism of the performance of participant Biyon Kattilathu, 39.
Kattilathu could not convince with his performance of the classic Viennese waltz. Motsi Mabuse, 42, and Jorge González, 56, still found some encouraging words for the motivational speaker. Joachim Llambi, on the other hand, makes a harsh judgment. The 59-year-old speaks of catastrophic footwork and that Biyon Kattilathu was out of rhythm. “You can’t buy anything from the success of the last few weeks here,” Llambi peppers this year’s celebrity dancer before only awarding two points for the dance. The audience in the studio does not share this opinion: they punish him with boos for his harsh sentence. The experienced “Let’s Dance” juror appears calm.
The 39-year-old received a total of 12 points from the jury. Despite the low points, Biyon was able to qualify for next week. Lina Larissa Strahl, 26, however, had to leave the show.
