  • He told Bild he alone selected the ensemble, stressing that he typically chooses his stage outfits himself.
  • At the end of the live broadcast, he said he will step away for a few months to work on new Traumschiff episodes as Captain Max Parger.
  • He indicated plans to return in summer for the Schlagerboom Open Air in Kitzbühel, pending the production schedule.
