Boris Becker (52) didn’t find this joke by Oliver Pocher (42) funny at all – and is now taking legal action against the comedian. About two weeks ago Becker Pocher went to his RTL show “Pocher – dangerously honest!” on the glue. Becker received the Fashion Brand Award from the Pochers TV team. Just stupid – the award was invented. And Becker? He accepted the award and thanked him in detail in a video link.
Boris Becker’s lawyer is now calling for an “injunction subject to penalties,” reports the German “Bild”. Means that Pocher should delete the contributions and the material recorded for them – until today.
Oliver Pocher would have liked an entertaining reaction
Otherwise Pocher could face a five-digit claim for damages. In addition, there are further claims for violation of the right to one’s own image, as well as insult. In addition, Becker’s fashion label “Boris Becker Style” is said to have been damaged by the campaign.
Fake price: Oliver Pocher puts Boris Becker in(01:01)
Oliver Pocher said to «Bild»: «I would have liked a more entertaining reaction in the sense of the matter.» But he can also handle the current situation well.
Samy Hammad (50), Boris Becker’s lawyer, said: “I will look at how the tightrope walk between humor and insolence develops with Mr. Pocher and I cannot rule out that my client still reacts creatively.” (paf)
