Joey Kel­ly sad­dled up on Thurs­day, 21 Novem­ber 2013, with the aim of set­ting an absolute­ly crazy record dur­ing the RTL TV channel’s telethon: to ride a bull non-stop for 24 hours! And, indeed, Joey Kel­ly hung on and sur­vived the ordeal! Joey Kel­ly now holds the first ever record for „stay­ing on an elec­tri­cal bull“!

The 24-hour record man

Joey’s mad record attempts dur­ing RTL’s telethons have become cult… he already holds the records for stay­ing „on a spin­ning ‚Devil’s Wheel‘ “, „on a tightrope“, „under water“ and „on an esca­la­tor“ for 24 hours!
He unfor­tu­nate­ly didn’t make it to the sin­gles‘ final of this year’s TV total Turm­sprin­gen (High-Div­ing Cham­pi­onship) last week­end. But he did reach the syn­chro­nized div­ing finals with Peter Imhof where he came fourth. He was prob­a­bly still feel­ing the 24 hours on the elec­tric bull in his bones.

ENERGETIX has sup­port­ed the Hugo Tem­pel­man Foun­da­tion, which is active in the fight against HIV and tuber­cu­lo­sis in South Africa, since 2008. And now, with sup­port from the Mer­cedes-Benz branch­es in Mainz and Bin­gen, ENERGETIX has donat­ed a car with high qual­i­ty equip­ment that the non-prof­it Foun­da­tion will use as a busi­ness vehi­cle. The car was hand­ed over to the Foun­da­tion on Thurs­day, 21 Octo­ber 2013.

All the fans and friends of Joey Kel­ly will be able to see this bun­dle of ener­gy – fit­ted out with sportEX bracelets – live on Ger­man TV sev­er­al times this week!

²¹⁄₂₂ Novem­ber 2013: RTL Spenden­marathon (Telethon) with Joey’s record attempt to ride an elec­tric bull for 24 hours.
RTL’s 18th Telethon will be kick­ing off at 6.00 p.m. on 21 Novem­ber 2013. Joey will be com­menc­ing his record attempt to ride an elec­tric bull for 24 hours dur­ing the 24-hour telethon (at around 6.30 p.m.)! Joey’s mas­sive and dar­ing record attempt will be shown live at var­i­ous times (prob­a­bly hourly) dur­ing the show so that view­ers will be able to see how he gets on live.

23 Novem­ber 2013: TV total Turm­sprin­gen (High Div­ing)
Joey will then be tak­ing part in the „TV total Turm­sprin­gen“ show on Sat­ur­day, 23 Novem­ber 2013. The com­pe­ti­tion will be shown on the ProSieben chan­nel at 8.15 p.m. The sta­mi­na mir­a­cle that is Joey will again be tak­ing part in the indi­vid­ual and syn­chro­nized events (and that at a time when he’ll prob­a­bly still be feel­ing the 24-hour bull-rid­ing record attempt in his bones). He’ll be com­pet­ing against the enter­tain­er, Ste­fan Raab, pro­fes­sion­al gym­nast, Fabi­an Ham­büchen, broad­cast­ing host, Daniel Ami­nati, and the win­ner from last year, Annabelle Man­deng, among oth­ers. Joey is hop­ing to win the syn­chro­nized div­ing event with his team part­ner, Peter Imhof.

In the events in pre­vi­ous years (from 2004 to 2012), Joey Kel­ly has won two gold, two sil­ver and three bronze medals, which means that on aver­age he ranks in third place over­all. Con­grat­u­la­tions, Joey!

The repeat will be shown at 9.25 a.m. on Sun­day, 24 Novem­ber 2013.

ENERGETIX’s busi­ness in Turkey was kicked off at the Divan Asia Otel in Pendik/Istanbul on 2 Novem­ber 2013.

The 130 par­tic­i­pants took the wel­come oppor­tu­ni­ty that pre­sent­ed itself here to acquaint them­selves live with both the 2013/2014 col­lec­tion and cat­a­logue. Roland Förster, Sole Share­hold­er and CEO, along with Tol­ga Delik­tas, Head of the Turkey Office, also out­lined the fan­tas­tic (earn­ing) oppor­tu­ni­ties that the busi­ness idea offers to the par­tic­i­pants. They answered all the dis­trib­u­tors‘ and prospects‘ ques­tions and pro­vid­ed use­ful tips to the new ENERGETIX dis­trib­u­tors. Many of those attend­ing the event chose to take up the spe­cial offers that were also avail­able at the event. The enthu­si­as­tic start-up mood was almost tan­gi­ble.

ENERGETIX has enjoyed a great start in Turkey: the num­ber of dis­trib­u­tors had increased to 360 just one week after its kick-off at the Divan Hotel.

Con­grat­u­la­tions on the real­ly suc­cess­ful launch. We’re look­ing for­ward to con­tin­u­ing hear­ing good news from Turkey.

„Mag­net­ic jew­ellery with star appeal“ was the head­ing with which host and fash­ion and soci­ety expert Tan­ja Bül­ter opened her own blog report on this year’s ENERGETIX Cat­a­logue Launch, at which she pre­sent­ed the new jew­ellery.

The like­able Berlin­er writes enthu­si­as­ti­cal­ly about how she expe­ri­enced the Launch and how she found the „ENERGETIX fam­i­ly“ and the stars behind the scenes. Here is an extract from the fash­ion expert’s report:

Tan­ja Bül­ter

„If a jew­ellery brand has megas­tars like Ronan Keat­ing or Kevin Cost­ner under con­tract and orga­nizes a mar­ket­ing event that is attend­ed by 1500 peo­ple from more than 30 coun­tries, it is clear that we are talk­ing not about a run-of-the-mill brand but a megabrand! (…)Franziska Knuppe (…) hap­pi­ly tells me back­stage about the pho­to shoot in Ire­land, where the singer was accom­pa­nied by his whole fam­i­ly. Prac­ti­cal­ly a real fam­i­ly hap­pen­ing!
And that’s how I feel, too – part of the Ener­getix fam­i­ly, at whose head sit the three senior exec­u­tives Roland Förster, Klaus-Peter Thiel and Alexan­der Link, who have remained com­plete­ly down-to-earth despite the company’s suc­cess! (…) A gigan­tic show has been pre­pared and I feel a bit the way I did exact­ly 7 years ago when I was able to watch the rehearsals for the Bam­bi Awards at the Estrel (which fea­tured Michael Jack­son!). Every­thing is per­fect­ly staged!“

If you attend­ed the two-day new­com­er event at the begin­ning of July or the “Get-togeth­er” in Berlin on 1 Sep­tem­ber (the morn­ing fol­low­ing the Cat­a­logue Launch), you’ll already have expe­ri­enced Men­na Mulugeta’s singing at first hand. You will then per­haps also be famil­iar with the feel­ings and goose-pim­ples that many of her lis­ten­ers expe­ri­ence?

Men­na Muluge­ta, who released her first album “Free” in 2012, is famous for tak­ing part in “The Voice of Ger­many” in 2012.

Men­na always thrills her audi­ences with her per­for­mances. And ENERGETIX is sup­port­ing this young tal­ent, who will be start­ing her tour in the USA with five shows, includ­ing per­for­mances in New York and Boston.

The tour dates and more infor­ma­tion about the singer are avail­able on her web­site.

The pho­to shoot of the jew­ellery in ENERGETIX’s eager­ly await­ed new spring col­lec­tion took place in Octo­ber. The stills of the new jew­ellery, which of course we can’t yet show you, were cre­at­ed at ENERGETIX Bingen’s com­pa­ny head­quar­ters.

Here you can exclu­sive­ly see the first impres­sions of the shoot, in which pho­tog­ra­ph­er Oliv­er Rad­kau and Franziska Zobel per­fect­ly show­cased the new jew­ellery of the 2014 spring brochure.

The pho­tos are once again first rate: look for­ward to a great ENERGETIX spring brochure!
