Many celebrities came to the donation gala for the German Depression Aid Foundation. Including Cathy Hummels, who advocates a more open approach to mental illness.
Munich – Cathy Hummels (33) drew attention to depression at a replacement Oktoberfest event.
“I had my first depression when I was 15 years old,” said the influencer and presenter at the “Wiesn Wiesn Charity Night” on Friday evening in Munich. She wants to “break the threshold” so that people can talk more easily about mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety or panic attacks. It is important to also celebrate “because it is good for the soul”.
Oktoberfest is actually a fixed date for celebrities. Since it is canceled for the second time this year due to Corona, there are several substitute events for the tapping, which would have been this Saturday. Wiesn playmates, models, singers and TV celebrities such as Victoria Swarovski, Verona Pooth, Lilly Becker and Oliver Pocher came to Hummel’s donation gala for the German Depression Aid Foundation.
The daughter of Bavaria’s Prime Minister Markus Söder, model Gloria-Sophie Burkandt, also came to the celebration in a dirndl in proper style. dpa
