Semino Rossi cancels his entire tour

Not only the fans of Helene Fischer, 38, were disappointed with the cancellation of their big Christmas show on ZDF, but also those of Semino Rossi, 60, must be very strong at the moment: the pop singer says his tour “That’s life” from November 2022 to February 2023 should take place completely.

The corona situation and the still “tense situation in the live industry”, as Rossi’s Facebook page puts it, are also thwarting his plans. For “logistical, technical and personnel reasons” it was not possible to hold the anniversary concerts. Tickets already purchased will be refunded. “Unfortunately, life is like that and we can only accept it,” says Semino Rossi, who also comments on the situation himself: “I’m very sorry that the planned ‘That’s Life’ tour cannot take place . I’m just as disappointed as you are,” he writes on social media.

But Rossi has a small consolation: All “gala concerts” in September and October that are not part of the tour can take place. “I’m really looking forward to that. It would be great if we could see each other at one of those shows.”

Gitte Haenning unpacks the planned fake relationship with Rex Gildo

Gitte Haenning, 76, and Rex Gildo, † 63, conquered as a hit duo “Gitte und Rex Gildo” in the 1960s with songs like “Vom Stadtpark die Lanterns”, “Two on a Bank” and “Now the world is turning nur um dich” the German charts. Despite great success and popularity, the duo separated in 1965 at Gitte’s request. Now the Danish singer speaks for the first time about the reasons.

On the occasion of the cinema star of “Rex Gildo – The Last Dance” next Thursday (September 29th), Gitte Haenning chats about the time and confirms what many already suspected: Rex Gildo was gay. Because sexual acts between males were still a punishable offense – and for the apparently good image – Rex Gildo was not open about his sexuality. Instead, according to Gitte Haenning, he wanted to have a sham relationship. “They actually wanted to make lovers out of us. Of course, the press needs stories like that, but I didn’t like it,” she says on “Bild” and adds: “As a person, he was very charming, charming and courteous. But I didn’t want to let it be determined by others.”

Especially financially, it would have been worthwhile for both of them to mimic the lovers on the outside, Rex Gildos manager believed at the time. But Gitte Haenning could not convince this argument either.

In 1974, Rex Gildo married his cousin Marion Hirtreiter. The marriage remained childless. Despite later separation, both remained married to each other. Rex Gildo died on October 23, 1999 after falling out of a window in his Munich apartment.

Helene Fischer declares the cancellation of her Christmas show on ZDF

Big disappointment for the fans of Helene Fischer, 38: The pop singer had to cancel her Christmas show, which has traditionally been broadcast on ZDF on Christmas Day since 2011, for the second year in a row. As early as 2021, the long-awaited Schlager highlight could not take place for the first time.

The reason again this year is the Corona situation. There are currently no specifications for hygiene measures, but since another corona wave could roll towards Germany in autumn, Helene wants to be on the safe side: “I very much regret that we had to cancel our Christmas show. It’s everything this year It’s still too uncertain because you don’t know what might come our way again in the fall. That’s why we painfully decided against the show,” says Helene in a statement to “Bild”.
