Jetzt nimmt er sich sogar Daniel Hartwich vor
Neben den “Let’s Dance”-Teilenhemer:innen stand auch die Jury der Show in Christian Polancs Kritik. Sogar “Let’s Dance”-Moderator Daniel Hartwich nimmt er nun ins Visier.
16 Jahre lang war Profitänzer Christian Polanc, Teil des “Let’s Dance”-Ensembles. Inzwischen schwingt er auf dem “Let’s Dance”-Parkett nicht mehr das Tanzbein, aber in seinem Podcast “Let’s Talk” kommentiert er jede Folge der diesjährigen Staffel. Dabei waren bis jetzt nur die Teilnehmer:innen und ab und zu die Jury in seinem Fokus.

Christian Polanc, a Let’s Dance veteran who hung up his dance shoes after 16 years, has been stirring the pot with his podcast Let’s Talk About Dance. Known for critiquing contestants and the jury, he’s now turned his sights on moderator Daniel Hartwich, and fans are buzzing about it. Here’s the tea as of April 12, 2025.
In a recent episode, Polanc didn’t hold back, reflecting on Hartwich’s early days hosting Let’s Dance (since 2010). He called Hartwich’s initial performance “beschissen” (pretty awful), saying his humor felt forced and lacked the show’s class (OK! Magazin, March 28, 2024). Ouch! Polanc admitted he was a harsh critic back then and even told Hartwich so. But here’s the twist: he now praises Hartwich’s growth, saying, “Der Daniel, wie geil macht er das immer noch!” (vip.de, April 11, 2025). Apparently, Hartwich needed time to find his groove, and Polanc respects the slick, witty vibe he brings alongside Victoria Swarovski today.
The context? Polanc’s podcast dissects Let’s Dance weekly, and with Season 18 airing (kicked off February 21, 2025), he’s got plenty to say. Hartwich’s been a fixture—charming, self-deprecating, even dancing with juror Joachim Llambi in a viral April 11 opener (Promiflash, April 7). Polanc’s critique seems less about bad blood and more about his blunt style, though some X fans wonder if there’s lingering shade: “Christian’s throwing punches, but is he jealous he’s not on the floor anymore?” Others defend Hartwich: “Daniel’s the heart of the show—Polanc’s just loud.”
No word from Hartwich yet—he’s busy hyping contestants like Gabriel Kelly (RTL, April 11). Polanc’s moved on too, running his dance school and dodging a Let’s Dance return (OK! Magazin). Still, this jab’s got folks talking. Was Polanc fair, or is he milking drama? Drop your take below
