The appearance is special because Florian Silbereisen and Helene Fischer were once in a relationship for ten years and were even considered a dream couple in the pop world. Since their separation in 2018, every public meeting has been a well-watched spectacle – and the announcement by the broadcaster MDR, which is responsible for the show, that there would be a surprise guest had fueled speculation about Fischer’s appearance.
Fischer makes even more children’s music
Fischer recently released an album of children’s songs, which she was also allowed to promote on the show. It shouldn’t be a one-off trip, Fischer announced in response to Silbereisen’s question on the show. In 2025 she wants to “continue to push the children’s song project forward”: “It’s not planned that it will stay with just one album. Yes, that means I want to grow with the children.”

At the same time, she will be working on new songs for a larger audience next year. In 2026 she will be “totally there for you again,” said the singer, who had already announced a tour for that year. Fischer also sang his birthday classic “How nice that you were born” and “In the Christmas bakery” in honor of Rolf Zuckowski, who was present. “I adore you and find you incredibly valuable for our music generation and music history,” Fischer said to Zuckowski.

Gottschalk enveloped in “well-being”
In addition to the numerous musical performances, a celebrity traditionally reads an Advent story on the annual TV show – this time it was the presenter Thomas Gottschalk, who was recently criticized for body shaming, among other things, with a self-written story. He raved about the Advent atmosphere of the show: “I think Florian is doing a great job. At a time when we really need it, he puts a blanket of well-being over the nation. (…) Even I have it all Malice stuck in the throat.”
