Joko Winterscheidt (44) will defend from February 19 on “Who is stealing the show from me?” again not only his honor, but also the moderation of his popular quiz show. This time, the prominent candidates singer Bill Kaulitz (33), rapper Sido (42) and actress Jasna Fritzi Bauer (33) want to contest the show. As a “crime scene” commissioner, the latter is used to finding answers to various questions. What does the 33-year-old do besides acting and how was her career so far?
Jasna Fritzi Bauer has had a remarkable acting career in recent years. In 2011 she celebrated her breakthrough with the film “Ein Tick anders”, in which she played Eva, who suffers from Tourette’s syndrome. Other roles in successful films and series followed, such as “About a Girl”, “Axolotl Overkill”, “jerks.” and in 2019 her own series “Rampensau”. The success of the 33-year-old also bore fruit in the form of numerous nominations and awards.
It is therefore surprising that Bauer admitted in an interview with the “FAZ” that she actually never wanted to make films. Your film acting career is just a “great stroke of luck”. “Once during my studies I was late for classes at the Ernst Busch [School for Dramatic Arts, editor’s note], and a caster stood there and asked me if I was studying here. She introduced me to the director Pia Marais, with whom I made my first film, ‘Im Alter von Ellen’ in 2009.”
Jasna Fritzi Bauer, who has been investigating inspector Liv Moormann in the Bremen “Tatort” since 2021, not only regularly proves her talent as an actress. The 33-year-old also knows how to convince with her voice. The audience learned from “The Masked Singer” in spring 2022 that she is a talented singer. Disguised as a starfish, the Wiesbaden native sang her way up to fifth place in the sixth season.
Bauer also knows how to use her voice professionally. She has been dubbing audio books since 2016. At the end of 2020, she also teamed up with her friends and colleagues Cristina do Rego (36) and Anna Maria Mühe (37) for the “Unter Dry” podcast. In it, the three regularly talk about acting topics.
Bauer is also not averse to art. Together with Katharina Zorn, she exhibited the series “Today I Write” in Bremen last year. For their media art, the artists integrated and transformed poetry into various media forms such as short films or multimedia installations. Whether quizzes are also one of her talents will be revealed in the coming weeks on Sundays in “Who is stealing the show?” out of here.
Jasna Fritzi Bauer keeps a low profile about her private life. Last year, however, she spoke to Ina Müller (57) about her unusual shared apartment on her show “Inas Nacht”. This consists of one other person and a child, she explained. However, it is not about her partner and her own child, as she clarified when asked by Müller. Jasna Fritzi Bauer has lived in many flat shares over the years. In addition to men who were 50 when she was 20 herself, there were also some people with children with whom she shared an apartment. “I think that’s how you look for your chosen family,” says Bauer.
She herself grew up in a large blended family. The actress has six siblings and, in addition to her biological parents, two stepmothers and two stepfathers. Her biological mother is Swiss-Chilean. For this reason, Bauer does not have a German passport, but does have Chilean and Swiss citizenship. Her relatives in Chile are very important to her, she often emphasizes. She still has around 120 relatives there. “These are my roots,” she explained on “Inas Nacht”.
