During the conversation, the successful entertainer revealed that she too had almost become an actress – but she put her foot in it at the crucial moment.

Barbara reported on a dinner with the famous film director Helmut Dietl († 70, ‘Rossini’), where he offered her a role in one of his films. The presenter enthusiastically agreed, but a few minutes later the tide turned.

And then you come along and want to do whatever you want? No way, you stupid goose.” It’s no wonder that Barbara Schöneberger didn’t get any more role offers from the director and her film career ended before she could even begin. She didn’t mind the insult, he probably called her that more often…

The TV woman isn’t afraid of getting tired of her. “It’s still going, the demand is there. I would be stupid if I made myself scarce,” Barbara Schöneberger honestly admitted in an interview with ‘Spiegel’.
