Candidate Helena in portrait
- Birthday: 11. June 1996
- Profession: actress
- Residence: Berlin
Tough and purposeful: Wildcard winner Helena wants to show Joko. She finally wants to steal the show from him. Because it’s about time that a wildcard candidate wins the show. The actress wants to give everything for this and is not deterred by her prominent competition. The encounter with Joko on the show also causes little nervousness in Helena. On the contrary: the two already know each other.
A first look at episode 1
Im Interview: Helena
I saved Joko’s ass together with a friend in 2017
Helena Sigal
1. What do you do professionally, what is your background?
Actress. I studied acting in Vienna and am now working at the GRIPS Theater (Children’s and Youth Theater) in Berlin. Born and raised in Saarland and in Berlin for two and a half years.
2. Do you have an Instagram profile?
3. What do you do in your free time, are you in a club or even in village structures?
Everything that has to do with handicrafts, in other words: handicrafts. I embroider, crochet, carve linoleum stamps, and when I get bored of that, I find something in my apartment that I can renovate or beautify. Otherwise: Everything that has to do with music. I play a lot of instruments (so it’s enough to accompany vocals) and actually sing non-stop. My neighbors hate me for late night karaoke parties. I usually meet up with my friends for board game evenings.
4. Why do you want to steal the show from Joko?
Because he owes me something. I saved Joko’s ass with a friend in 2017 because he forgot his wallet and we had to get his car out of the underground car park. Also, I think this show may be the only one I really have a chance to win.
5. What are you really good at? Do you have a specialty? nerd knowledge?
musicals and pop culture. I felt it a lot when Riccardo Simonetti listed 29 characters from “Sex and the City”. I could do that.
6. What are you so unfamiliar with? What knowledge gaps do you have?
Football and questions about sports. Since I don’t do any sport myself, I can’t develop any enthusiasm for it.
7. What is a random fun fact about you?
I once claimed on Instagram for 24 hours while on vacation at a horse farm in Poland that I was at the Cannes Film Festival and never resolved it. I’m still being asked how I got accreditation and if I know good food spots in Cannes.
8. Are there any skills and party tricks you’d like to show off on your show?
Having studied puppetry for a semester, I can discover a character in pretty much any object and bring it to life. In addition, I can imitate a bagpipe with just my voice and memorize lyrics in a very short time.
9. Are you a really big fan of anything or anyone?
Anything Broadway related. My biggest dream would be to spend a week in NYC with an unlimited ticket to all the shows that are on.
10. What is your living situation like?
I live alone in beautiful Moabit.
