Cologne (dpa) - This time the audience votes did not save him either: the former Tagesschau spokesman Jan Hofer flew out of the RTL dance show “Let's Dance”.

The 69-year-old and his dance partner Christina Luft received twelve points for his slow waltz and thus the worst rating of the jury.

Actress Valentina Pahde, on the other hand, got the highest number of points for her Viennese waltz and even broke a record.

Hofer had dedicated the dance to his wife - because the motto of the seventh edition of this year's dance show was "Love Week".

This time, compliments were abundantly distributed and several celebrities expressed their love for their partners.

Hofer, for example, reported on his relationship with his wife, whom he met at a classic car rally and with whom he has been together for seven years: “We haven't fought a single time.

Every day ends with the words: I love you. "

She is the best that has ever happened to him.

Juror Motsi Mabuse got up from her seat after Hofer's dance and had tears in her eyes. "We saw your best just now," she said. Only juror Jorge González was unusually critical this time when it came to Hofer's dancing quality. And so the second evaluation for the jury team dance and the added votes of the audience were not enough for Hofer to advance.

Actress Pahde (26) and her dance partner Valentin Lusin received a full 30 points for their Viennese waltz.

The entire jury stood up after the performance.

Llambi emphasized that here the audience could have seen that you can be good without a lot of frills and show elements.

Mabuse even called Pahde the "Ballroom Queen", bowed to her and said: "That was the best Viennese waltz ever, ever, ever."

A celebrity has never received so many points for a Viennese waltz on "Let's dance", said presenter Victoria Swarovski.

Eight years ago, Sila Sahin got the best rating so far with 29 points.

Regarding the motto of the week, however, Pahde said: “I don't have that much to say about love. It's nice to be in love - I haven't had this feeling for a long time. " This week, professional dancer Patricija Belousova wanted to spark more passion in her protégé, professional boxer Simon Zachenhuber - and so the 22-year-old had to take off his shirt during the salsa. Llambi commented: "We are all waiting for the Rúrik to do that too."

The Icelandic footballer Rúrik Gíslason (33) and his dance partner Renata Lusin made jokes with pick-up lines on the weekly topic. They also received the highest number of points for their chachacha - significantly more than in the previous week. Llambi said: "I was unhappy last week because I know you can do better." This is exactly what he has now shown. With ex- "Prince Charming" Nicolas Puschmann (30), who showed a samba with his dance partner Vadim Garbuzov, the jury had a lot to complain about this time. The structure was missing, said González. Joachim Llambi added: "I think it wasn't so much his dance today." In the end there were 23 points.

For the first time, the celebrities had to show a second dance - as a team dance that one of the three jurors had practiced with them.

The Dutch singer Ilse DeLange had bad luck this week.

The 43-year-old injured her foot before the dress rehearsal.

She doesn't know what happened yet, but it hurts so much that she can't stand on it, she said.

So she and her dance partner Evgeny Vinokurov had to sit out.
