Larissa Marolt leaves My Style Rocks - new chapter for the jury!

Deutschland - Larissa Marolt leaves the well-known German casting show "My Style Rocks", as reports [5min.at] (https://www.5min.at/52025060837/larissa-marolt-verlast-known-known show/). Marolt, who had been a juror on the show since 2024, announced her farewell to her Instagram profile. In her contribution, she expressed gratitude for the experiences and the time on the show and announced that she would like to concentrate more on her acting career and other projects in the future.

"My Style Rocks" has been running on Sport1 since October 2024 and enjoyed great popularity. In the show, 12 women present their outfits every day in so-called "Fashion Battles", which among other things treat topics such as casual dates, business appointments and club nights. The looks are rated by the jury, which, in addition to Larissa Marolt, also includes designer Harald Glööckler, beauty expert Andreas Wendt and fashion journalist Sandra Bauknecht.

The context of reality TV

reality TV has developed into an integral part of television culture, especially in Germany. In 2023, reality programs on broadcasters such as Sat.1, RTL and VOX made over a third to almost 40 percent of the program, which underlines the growing popularity of such formats. Statista shows that reality shows can be roughly divided into different categories, including narrative formats, performative formats such as casting shows and scripted documentary soaps.

The popularity of formats such as "My Style Rocks" shows how spectators are interested in the personal stories of the participants. Marolt said that she is looking forward to getting to know the character behind the personal style of the candidates. The show also contributes to the establishment of prominent participants, such as Aneta Sablik and Theresia Fischer, who are part of the first season.

At the end of the season, the most stylish woman in the country is crowned and receives prize money of 20,000 euros, which increases the commitment of the participants. This combination of fashion, competition and celebrity culture is what makes "My Style Rocks" and similar formats in the landscape of reality TV so attractive.

The farewell to Larissa Marolt from the jury will leave a gap in the show, which can continue to rely on a strong format. The next season is already being planned and will pull the viewers back in front of the screen.
