Olivia Jones on “The Big Celebrity Penance”: “You’ve never seen Sam Dylan like this before”

The third season of “The Big Celebrity Penance” once again has a lot up its sleeve! From November 7th, reality TV lovers can look forward to two new episodes every week on the Joyn streaming platform. But viewers can also watch on free TV every Thursday evening on ProSieben as the presenter Olivia Jones (54) puts the ten candidates through the wringer. In the interview, Jones reveals which reality star surprised her the most…

Olivia Jones: My job on “The Big Celebrity Penance” is not to be the “celebrity judge.” It is not my place to condemn and it is far from me. My job is to present the accusation, so to speak, to conduct the interrogation and to provide food for thought. In the end, the viewers have to make their own judgment.

Jones: It’s up to him or her how serious the penance really is.

Jones: In the new “The Big Celebrity Penance” season, we’re giving the celebrities an extra round of detention after their “round of shame.” Alone, just her and her thoughts. Despite even funnier games, challenges and the reality madness of celebrity penance, we’re serious about the “Round of Shame.”

Jones: This time in a “round of shame” things really got so bad that I thought: Well, now it’s escalating, now they’re going to ruin my make-up! But I can’t reveal more about it yet. I was most curious about Sam Dylan’s “Round of Shame.” Do you think you know him? Then get ready for something. You’ve never seen Sam Dylan like this before. It started off very confidently and there were tears at the end. We expose the sophisticated Sam system and look behind the provocative reality star shell that made him famous but also lonely. I can already reveal: We have cracked a piece of his shell and I am really excited to see whether he will show us more of his innermost being in the future, instead of just the colorful big show.

And I can already tell you about Christina Dimitrious’s “Round of Shame”: Everyone only knows her as a crazy rage tornado that rages through the reality world. She has to pay for that. But she slips out one of the saddest sentences I’ve ever heard on celebrity penance. I think she has understood what her problem is and is trying really hard on herself. I just hope she holds out. She doesn’t just have it easy with herself, but also with the other camp residents.

Jones: In my opinion, “The Big Celebrity Penance” is the toughest reality format there is. Participation alone is part of the penance. But the celebrity penitents should really take something with them from the penitent camp; they should continue to seriously deal with their shameful deeds afterwards. The third season will be even harder – but also much more entertaining than the first two seasons. There’s more of everything: more reality madness, more crazy games, a new and tempting but sneaky deal phone, and more “rounds of shame.” Let yourself be surprised!
