early life

Dieter Nuhr was born on October 29, 1960 in Wesel, where he also spent the first four years of his life before the family moved to the Rhenish metropolis of Düsseldorf.

There he was able to take his first state examination in 1988. Nuhr first came into contact with work on stage during his school days in a theater club. During a project of the theater group at the Düsseldorf theatre, he already drafted the first lecture texts. Together with his partner Frank Küster, Dieter Nuhr founded the cabaret duo “VEV-K.Barett” in 1986. With their joint program “Have you noticed your closet number?” In 1987 they gave their first performances on various cabaret stages. Two years later, the new program entitled “Pralle Pracht” was created before the project name was slightly changed in 1990.

In 2013, Dieter Nuhr moderated the German Comedy Award on RTL for the sixth time.

Famous quotes

“Because my daughter goes to the Friday demonstrations, I will no longer heat the children’s room. If our children think we can power this world with a bit of sun and wind, then we parents should put a hamster wheel with a dynamo in their children’s room. Then they can charge their phones.”
-Dieter Nuer

“Socialism is closely related to Buddhism, since both teachings mean for the individual that it is no longer worth moving in this life.”
-Dieter Nuer

Amazing Facts

According to a judge’s verdict, Dieter Nuhr can be dubbed a “hate preacher” because of his sometimes highly Islam-critical content. The initial situation was the dispute with the Muslim Erhat Toka, who reported Nuhr in 2014 for hate speech and insults and described him as a “hate preacher”. Nuhr also took legal action against this designation, but failed. Because of this fact, he can now be called that without any consequences.
