Spicy confession

He is still one of the most popular presenters in Germany. Günther Jauch (53) - when he leads with his mischievous smile through "Who Wants to be a Millionaire" (RTL), turns on an audience of millions. And that for over ten years. And with "Stern-TV", the Wahl-Potsdamer has been able to retain a regular audience for more than two decades.

Jauch is a TV darling, always serious. One who would like to be accepted as a wife as a son-in-law. But at two recently broadcast TV appearances something fell on. Jauch suddenly came to the topic of eroticism. Oops - what was going on there?

It started with the broadcast "Beckmann" on the 23rd of November. As the TV darling confessed: "I once on Amazon (an Internet trade, the Red.) ..." He broke off the sentence. But he said: He ordered something. Then he became clearer, told what he bought at the click of a mouse: "Something erotic." And added, "It was not for me." Since then, he has been treated with disreputable enticement.

"When you call up the page, it says, 'You're the type for ...', and then basically one porno number comes after the next." Christine Höger, Amazon spokeswoman for NEUE POST: "Our recommendations are being automated created on a product basis; Products in the Erotic category are only displayed if a customer has actually purchased or viewed products in this category. "

The spicy confession - Günther Jauch has ordered "something erotic". For someone else. But is he really telling the truth? We do not know ... But his statement seems as if everything is not told here.

At this point, dear readers, we would like to pause briefly: As a woman, I have to smile about such a confession. It seems to be typical human that one does not admit to having done something that is considered embarrassing. Then you tend to say that it is for someone else and not for yourself. I also know that from me: When I take a second piece of cake from the canteen to the office, I often say: It's for the colleague! Everyone knows that's not true, but everyone leaves me believing they're taking it from me. A ritual to save face.

The second time that Jauch talks about eroticism is the November 27 "Who Wants to Be Millionaire" broadcast. The Cologne candidate Rebecca Kamper hooked on the 300-euro question. She talked to Günter Jauch about magazines that are in doctors' offices. Outraged she reported "dubious magazines" that she once read in a waiting room. "A comic, " she said, "I disliked that as a kid." "A porn manga, " Jauch said.

Once again, dear readers, I want to say something: why does the presenter link waiting room magazines with "porn mangas", those Japanese comics that trace hard sex? I find that strange. This is definitely not the case with my doctor.

Günther Jauch exchanged a few ambiguous words with the daring Cologne lady. He spoke of sex booklets, which he once delivered. And she said that she forgot everything around her when she saw Jauch on the street in private. It became clear: the two had fun together. The audience too. Despite its slippery trips, the program once again attracted millions of viewers.
