Read our exclusive double interview - Motsi Mabuse (33) & Jochim Llambi (49)
What teases, that loves - the betrayed the two "Let's Dance" jurors Motsi Mabuse and Joachim Llambi in an exclusive interview with "The New Leaf".
They evaluate the candidates year after year. Motsi, what is there to criticize Mr Llambi?
Motsi: Oh, we just have fun together!
Llambi: Yes, there is not much to criticize. Everyone does their thing. If Motsi times right thinks and I think around the left, then that's just it.
They often come together. Especially if you, Mr Llambi, once again rate nasty.
Llambi: We are like an old couple. And so we evaluate too.
Motsi: We have respect for each other. I think that's nice. It takes confidence to deal with each other as we do.
What can you learn from the other?
Motsi: Joachim is doing a great job. I like his spontaneous style - nothing is rehearsed. He comes over, of course. I learn a lot when I sit next to Joachim. His experience gives us a lot of security.
Llambi: Motsi's African style is very nice. She has a zest for life and shows us that you do not always have to say everything badly. It's not all gray - that's what she stands for. And not just with her skin color. Motsi always has a lot of color involved.
What tips do you have for women who want to do a dance class with their husband?
Llambi: Take a lover!
Motsi: Oh, là, là (laughs)!
What is the most important thing about dancing?
Motsi: That you have feeling. And body tension! Without body tension it is very difficult to dance.
Llambi: Second, you definitely have to enjoy dancing. And one should not always just downplay his dance partner. Otherwise he will not be with us any more.
Who is worse, men or women?
Motsi: The women! They always nag their partner around and make everything broken. They should come to the dance school and just shut their mouths.
Llambi: Exactly! And, dear women: always leave the man in the lead.
Motsi: Yes, unfortunately, dancing is still one of those things where men are in power.
Llambi: What does that mean, unfortunately? That's nice!
Motsi: Well, as long as it's just on the dance floor, that's okay (laughs).
