you tell us a little bit about your relationship with her? PM: Actually I am very German because my family founded Hamburg, Lübeck and Kiel in Germany and was a ruling, princely family. I adore a German entertainer by the name of Heidi Klum! We of course all know. And I have this great honor to be represented by ONEeins Fab Management. That’s a company run by Günther Klum, yes, that’s the father of Heidi Klum. I adore the Klum family. They are the most hard working, genuine and sweetest people ever. So, I really need to say hi to the Klums clan and thank them for the amazing ONEeins Management for all of the magic that they do. We are currently doing a pilot for Warner Brothers because they set me up for a new TV show. Uh-oh I don’t know if I can talk about it, so you are the first guys to hear about it. So we gotta do 11 days of filming for the New Warner Brothers TV show. And I am excited! It’s my first time working with Warner Brothers! You know the Bugs Bunny I have always loved as a kid! And now I am working with these guys! Whoo! SM: I want to talk about your long list of awards and achievements. You just received one, two days ago! PM: Yes! I had the big honor to receive two amazing awards from the Southern California Motion Picture Council. And it’s such a great honor because the council was founded in 1936; it’s a very historic organization. Former awardees have been Michael Jackson, John Travolta, Judy Garland, Audrey Hepburn, Princess Grace of Monaco, Grace Kelly and Margaret O’Brien. She is a Oscar winner, legendary actress from “Meet Me in St. Louis.” I was awarded with the President’s Award by the Southern California Motion Picture Council and The Golden Halo for Best Actor 2016. This is a huge honor and the award was presented to me by legendary Margaret O’Brien herself. In attendance, was Judy Garland’s son, Joey Luft who is a good friend of mine for more than ten years. Joey is also the brother of Liza Minnelli. A lot of entertainers were present that evening. When I received this award, I really had to say one thing first, it’s not about me at all. Because I was going there to learn from the others. That’s what my life doctrine is. I hate when people are full of themselves; that’s totally uninteresting. I always want to learn about others. That’s why I love to work as a journalist because you can ask others questions that you want to learn about, you can find out more about others and you can learn. I believe in our lives we can learn so much. Especially in entertainment, the ones that made it, that have been there before, I just appreciate their work so much. I love their work and I want to learn how they did it. And I am always one who like, when somebody does something, I am looking over their shoulder and I am asking them “How did you do that!” I want to know everything. I am so curious about life and about other people all of the time. I think that makes me a journalist because I am so curious about everything. SM: You have such a fun loving and giving personality. Are you involved with any charities? PM: I am very much involved with a campaign for kids. The one message is “Bullys are the cowards of the world.” Bullying is the worst thing ever. This cybermobbing and stalking and all these rude things, I absolutely dislike and disapprove. I want to send a positive message so that kids will have a nice way communicating with each other; and I love that cause. And I always have. I
