Emily Mitchell
Roaming through the high life of Munich or standing insouciantly beside its spired city hall, the man known as Leo is king of the social jungle. The TV commentator on the Bavarian capital’s Schickeria — the chic and shallow set — is brought to life twice a month on the ARD network by ANDREAS IK, 37, a onetime psychology student. Life’s a peep show for Lukoschik, and his unorthodox interviews with the rich and notorious — he once sat on a white stallion to interview a party girl bathing in mare’s milk — attract millions of viewers. Not to mention voyeurs.
