Barbara Meier: Special return to the “Let’s Dance” world

Barbara Meier danced her way to the final of “Let’s Dance” in 2018. Elsewhere, she is now returning to the TV dance hall.

Barbara Meier (36) won the second season of “Germany’s next top model” in 2007. After that, the model appeared in other TV shows, including “Let’s Dance.” She once took third place on the RTL dance show. Now the 36-year-old is returning to the world of dance shows.

“After I was allowed to dance to the final of ‘Let’s Dance’ in 2018, I’m finally returning to the ballroom on Friday,” writes Meier. “However, this time not as a dancer, but as a (guest) judge in the Austrian version ‘Dancing stars!” She is very happy to be “enchanted” by ten wonderful dance couples at best. Dancing is and will always be a great passion of mine,” explains the former “GNTM” winner.

In Austria, the TV channel ORF 1 has been showing the dance show with celebrity-professional couples since 2005. The 15th season of “Dancing Stars” starts on March 3rd, which, like “Dancing with the Stars” (USA) or “Let’s Dance” (Germany) is a version of the BBC show “Strictly Come Dancing” which runs internationally under different titles. In addition to the “Dancing Stars” jurors Maria Angelini-Santner (36) and Balázs Ekker (45), there is a weekly changing guest juror. At the start, Meier will get a taste of the jury.

Ups and downs in “Let’s Dance”

The model danced in 2018 in the eleventh season of “Let’s Dance” alongside Sergiu Luca (40). The dancing couple was initially eliminated in the fifth round, but then returned to the show as a substitute for injured contestants Jimi Blue Ochsenknecht (31) and Renata Lusin (35) and took third place.

And how is it now appearing on Austrian TV? Barbara Meier, who lives in Vienna by choice, has been married to the Austrian entrepreneur Klemens Hallmann (born 1976) since June 2019. They made their relationship public in spring 2016, and the marriage proposal followed in May 2018. The couple have two daughters.

For the German dance celebrities, the second live show will start next Friday (March 3rd, 8:15 p.m.). RTL is currently showing the 16th season of “Let’s Dance”.
