A Tough Test: Restaurateur and Influencer “Redo” Enters Big Brother

René Dost is used to making decisions every day and staying constantly reachable. In the Promi Big Brother container, he will have to manage without both control and a mobile phone.

“

My biggest fear is actually that more chaos will break out in my 41 business areas outside than inside the container.

The 57-year-old Brandenburg restaurateur and influencer, known as “Redo,” told dpa that his biggest fear was not what would happen inside the container, but the possibility that his 41 business areas would descend into greater chaos outside it.

“Suddenly having no control and no mobile phone will probably be the toughest test for me,” Dost said. He also wants viewers to see more than the loud, flamboyant character familiar from the internet.

“My worst case would be that viewers see only the loud Redo and not the person René behind him,” he said. Dost became known through his XXL restaurant chain and now has hundreds of thousands of followers on social media. He hopes the show will reveal the heart, life experience and genuine feelings behind his energy.
