Overview
- The crowd in Dortmund was so loud after Roland Kaiser's set that Florian Silbereisen halted an interview and invited fans to sing, laughing, "Okay, dann singt!"
- Silbereisen misannounced Anna-Maria Zimmermann as "Anna-Maria Zimmerfrei," and the singer joked about it in a backstage video.
- Maite Kelly debuted the sensual track "Der Morgen danach" and later told Bild the lyrics carry autobiographical elements as a homage to female fantasy.
- Schlager singer Jörg Schulte posted that Kelly’s new song resembles his "Am Morgen danach," sharing a snippet and framing it as a question of coincidence; no response from Kelly’s team was reported.
- Andrea Berg performed a crane-supported segment a few meters above the stage, which drew some social media criticism as less spectacular than it was billed.
