The first woman for Bohlen
Leony becomes a jury member at DSDS

The rumor was already doing the rounds. Now it’s official: singer Leony, together with Dieter Bohlen and Pietro Lombardi, is on the jury of the upcoming anniversary season of “Deutschland sucht den Superstar”. “A great honor,” she explains.
It should be the last time that “Deutschland sucht den Superstar” (DSDS) on RTL (also available on RTL +) goes over the big show stage. For the last season, with which the successful formula will also celebrate its 20th anniversary at the beginning of 2023, Dieter Bohlen will return to the jury as grand seigneur. He gets support from some younger colleagues.
It was previously confirmed that Pietro Lombardi will also celebrate his comeback in the cradle of his success. The 30-year-old won the show’s eighth season in 2011, and was also part of the DSDS jury in 2019 and 2020.
Until now, however, it has been pure speculation as to who could complete the team of judges alongside Bohlen and Lombardi. One name has already been mentioned this week: Leony.
From “Rising Star” to DSDS
And indeed: the singer, who in the past attracted attention with songs such as “Faded Love”, “Remedy” and the modern speaking cover “Brother Louie”, will be at the party, RTL has now officially announced.
“I’m really looking forward to everything to come!” The 25-year-old is quoted. In a sense, her DSDS mission also means a small comeback for her: after all, in 2014 she won “Rising Star” with her then band Unknown Passenger and with that another talent show on RTL.
“Unbelievable, eight years ago I was on an RTL casting stage myself,” Leony recalls and adds: “I never thought I would be able to judge talent in a major music show in 2023. And then next to Dieter Bohlen and Pietro Lombardi – it’s a great honor for me.”
So we already have a wife for Bohlen when leaving the DSDS. But rumor has it that there should also be room for another juror. In conversation for this was Youtuber and singer Shirin David. But she would have canceled. The guesswork about who could take on the female part of the jury besides Leony should go a little further.
