Comedian: Kurt Krömer ends the show with Faisal Kawusi early

Heated conversation with Kurt Krömer: During an interview with the comedian Faisal Kawusi, there was a small scandal on the RBB program "Chez Krömer". Krömer (48) broke off the conversation several minutes before the end and left the stylized interrogation room. Then he said in front of the cameras: "Today is the day when I think (...) that I'll go home and see if I might reconsider the concept." Then he got up and left. Several media had previously reported on the show.

The interview, which is available in the ARD media library, dealt, among other things, with an Instagram comment by Kawusi on the subject of knockout drops, a statement criticized as racist to the "Let's Dance" juror Motsi Mabuse and a tour poster by the comedian, commemorating the fatal arrest of George Floyd in 2020.

Kawusi stated that he was not racist and was not hostile to anyone else. The parents of the 31-year-old come from Afghanistan and came to Germany in 1989 as political refugees. Kawusi was born in Hesse in 1991.

In the show, celebrities and politicians answer questions from moderator Kurt Krömer. The guests included the ex-“Bild” editor-in-chief Julian Reichelt, the former Minister of Health Jens Spahn (CDU) and the former AfD party leader Frauke Petry.
