2023
In 2023, a fractured rib sustained during rehearsals led to concert postponements, followed by another trapeze accident in Hanover that caused a facial injury and brought a show to a halt. These incidents fuelled public debate over the place of dangerous acrobatics in her performances.
2018
After being criticised for her silence during the Echo controversy over lyrics considered antisemitic, Fischer published a lengthy message describing the decision to give the rappers that platform as 'shameful' and 'inappropriate'.
2018
Following the violence and demonstrations in Chemnitz, Fischer publicly called for a stand against xenophobia. Her intervention drew considerable support but also strong rejection from part of her audience.
2015
Fischer sought an interim injunction preventing the far-right NPD party from using her song 'Atemlos' in its campaign. The episode placed her work at the centre of a controversy over the political appropriation of popular songs.
2014
A Volkswagen campaign featuring Fischer provoked negative reactions and online mockery, particularly over its staging and the saturation of advertising with her image.
