Week after week, Anna Ermakova shows excellent performances on “Let’s Dance”, even the otherwise grumpy chief judge Joachim Llambi is full of praise for the celebrity dancer. “You are such a special guy who is here on the floor – so unusual, so different,” he enthused last week about Boris Becker’s daughter. But is the RTL show not only about dance talent but also about popularity? The AZ once asked moderator Victoria Swarovski.
Victoria Swarovski sees Anna Ermakova’s famous surname as an opportunity
Anna Ermakova can also inspire the “Let’s Dance” audience with her performance and delivers spectacular dance performances. It remains to be seen whether she can keep her current favorite role, because the tone of the celebrity candidate is already getting rougher on social media. Besides her talent, what role does her fame play? After all, she was in the headlines before she was born because of the affair of her father Boris Becker and her mother Angela Ermakova.
Victoria Swarovski has experienced Anna live in the RTL studio in recent weeks, because she has been a presenter on “Let’s Dance” since 2018 and won the show herself in 2016. “Anna is a great woman, I get goosebumps when I talk about her. She totally stands for diversity, is super sweet, intelligent and has a goal in mind,” says the 29-year-old to the AZ about the Becker daughter. She doesn’t necessarily see the famous surname Becker as an obstacle, but rather as an opportunity, as she explains: “With this name and the story behind it, this is an important step in the right direction for her.”
Victoria Swarovski: “Anna Ermakova is about who is behind it”
Fame is an important point on “Let’s Dance”, because celebrities appear on the RTL show, but performance is what counts for Victoria Swarovskias she explains to the AZ using the example of Anna Ermakova: “For her, it’s not necessarily about popularity, but about who is behind it. With ‘Let’s Dance’ you can only shine if you perform well – and you do that Anna.”
And indeed, Boris Becker’s daughter shows what immense dance talent she has. So far she has been among the best celebrity candidates every week and has received top marks from the jury and viewers. If this continues, she will most likely fight for the title of “Dancing Star” in the finals. Anna Ermakova has already won a prominent fan in Victoria Swarovski. “When you watch her perform live in the studio, you can tell she’s struggling. She perfects every move, right down to the toes.”
