JaucH Is Amazed: Candidate Funded Her Studies as a 'White Dominatrix'

TVS News AI redaktionell betreut präsentiert Jauch staunt: Kandidatin finanzierte Studium als „weiße Domina“.

A Side Job That Surprised Jauch

Jennifer Holzendorf told the story of an unusual side job during her studies on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" When she explained what she had done as a "white dominatrix," Günther Jauch wanted to know more.

The candidate surprised the host with a glimpse into her past. For her, this side job was no sideline: She financed her studies herself.

The candidate thus brought a side job that was likely hardly expected to the show. The two reports by Focus Panorama and Bunte agree that it was this unusual job during her studies that piqued Jauch’s curiosity.

What the Candidate Said About Her Side Job

The job as a "white dominatrix"

Holzendorf explained on the program that she had worked as a "white dominatrix" during her studies. In doing so, she combined her university studies with a sex-work side job that apparently also financed her education.

According to Focus Panorama, she personally told Jauch about this work. Bunte likewise reports that she spoke about her former side job on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" and that Jauch then asked curious follow-up questions.

Why the Story Amazed Jauch So Much

On a quiz show, contestants generally expect questions about general knowledge, sports, or history. A personal story about a side job during university breaks that pattern — and explains why Jauch looked more closely at the details.

The candidate linked her answer to an unusual way of financing her studies. It was precisely this contrast between everyday student life and the job as a "white dominatrix" that prompted the host’s reaction.

What Both Reports Confirm

Focus Panorama and Bunte consistently report on Jennifer Holzendorf, her side job as a "white dominatrix" during her studies, her use of the income to finance her education, and Günther Jauch’s curious reaction.

The context also matches: The story concerned a candidate on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" who caused a stir with an unusual insight into her past. Beyond that, the sources cite no specific sum, exact period, or further details about her work.
