The art of self-expression has undoubtedly changed a lot in recent years. It is becoming increasingly important to be constantly present, especially on the World Wide Web. How active are the people of Hilden and how do they present themselves? We have put together seven facts here.
1. The TV presenter A prominent example from the area is the television presenter Sven Lorig, who appears in front of the camera for the “Morgenmagazin”, among others. The Hilden native has almost 12,000 followers on Instagram. In fact, his profile doesn’t just focus on work, as the moderator is an enthusiastic runner. He enjoys documenting marathons and charity runs and enjoys taking a selfie or two at the finish line. But if you meet a lot of celebrities in your professional life, the opportunity for great selfies probably jumps at you at every corner and so there are lots of big stars to be found on Sven Lorig’s Instagram account. Roland Kaiser, Lena Meyer-Landrut and Adele have posed with him in the past.
2. The Podcaster “Weather, thunder, thunder – and everything in between!” That’s the description of Michael Klein’s Instagram channel. He has around 800 followers here. His podcast “Little Special Incidents” deals with funny and bizarre events in world history. He uploads a new episode to Spotify every Wednesday, which then deals, for example, with a fallen flower pot in Münsterland or the invention of bungee jumping. He also has the podcast “Klein aber Hardt” with the moderators André and Kristin Hardt, in which they regularly dissect world events, always with a slight wink and potential for discussion. He is also active on the new app Threads under the name “_micha_klein” and posts little facts like “Is the knowledge that today is the day of useless knowledge useless?”
3. The Mayor Our mayor also has an Instagram channel. There it can be found under the name “clauspommer”. He posts everything related to the city, sometimes serious and sometimes not. In the past, for example, he uploaded a photo of the farmers’ strike. One of his funnier videos shows him at the “100 Years of Waldbad” celebration gathering his courage and jumping from the diving board into the pool – in his shirt! The post is subtitled: “The next Waldbad anniversary would be nice without me” and a winking emoji. Sometimes our mayor also shows himself in a very private way, for example he uploaded a small series of pictures from his summer vacation in Spain. Around 1,300 people follow him.
4. The party The Hilden SPD uploaded a podcast to YouTube three years ago. Today the channel is inactive; back then it was about topics such as culture, youth and urban development. “Local politics to listen to” is the description. The speaker for the podcast was Dominik Stöter, a member of the SPD Hilden. The most successful episode of “Together Hilden” has just 150 views on YouTube.
5. The company Qiagen is a company founded in Düsseldorf in 1984 and based in Hilden. The European headquarters are also in Hilden, but the headquarters are in Venlo/Netherlands. On the company Instagram you can find some videos that are based on the principle of current trends. The posts also address the diversity of the employees. “I am proud that diversity and inclusion are Qiagen principles,” Jonathan Schaffer, an employee at the company, wrote in a post. The group has 18,000 followers on Instagram and around 9,400 subscribers on YouTube.
6. The singer Chris James, born in Los Angeles, grew up in Hilden, is currently building his career as a singer. Chris James is touring Germany until January 27th, and last year he was on stage supporting Nico Santos. He started by writing songs, for which YouTube even named him songwriter of the year 2023. He has already been involved in some big projects, for example for the South Korean boy band BTS and for the German singers Udo Lindenberg and Apache 207 in their big one Hit “Comet”. On his Instagram channel, in addition to news about his music, you can bizarrely find plant reviews. There don’t seem to be any real criteria, it’s probably a comedy format. He has around 77,000 followers on Instagram, around 61,000 on Tiktok and 230,000 people have subscribed to him on YouTube. His current album was released this year and is called “Dopamine Detox”.
7. The politician Claudia Schlottmann (CDU) is a member of the state parliament for Hilden, Langenfeld and Monheim. On her Instagram channel you won’t find anything private, but there will be a lot related to her work. In addition to the children’s prince couple and the women’s meeting during the carnival season, she mainly posts pictures directly from the state parliament and with party colleagues. She has around 1000 followers on Instagram and 2000 on Facebook.
