Carolin Kebekus (born 9 May 1980 in Bergisch Gladbach) is a German comedian and actress.

Life

Carolin Kebekus grew up as daughter of a social education worker and a banker in Köln-Ostheim. Her younger Brother David Kebe is also a comedian.[1] She started her career as an intern at Freitag Nacht News, a weekly comedy show. One of the co-producers of the show, Hugo Egon Balder, saw her talent in acting and arranged for her to take acting classes parallel to her internship.[2] In 2002, she did an internship at 1 Live.[3]

Her parodies of the frontsinger Bill Kaulitz of the band Tokio Hotel in the Freitag Nacht News were the catalysts of her breakthrough. However, in 2006 she also faced big backlash from the fan-community of Tokio Hotel and received hateful messages and threats.[4] From September 2006 until the show was cancelled in December 2006, Kebekus was one of the hosts of Freitag Nacht News together with Ingo Appelt and others.

Kebekus works as a comedian and television actress on German broadcasters.[5]
