Oliver Michael Dittrich (born 20 November 1956) is a German television personality, comedian, actor, and musician.

Life

Dittrich completed a three year-education as a theatre painter in the Hamburg State Opera (1975–1978). At the same time, he started his professional career as a musician, composer, and songwriter.

Dittrich became famous in Germany for his work as an actor and comedian in the comedy television show RTL Samstag Nacht. He appeared in films and TV series but has also performed live on stage. He sang and played in the band Die Doofen with Wigald Boning, which sold over 1,5 mio copies with only two albums. In 1995, the duo started playing as one of the supporting acts with Jon Bon Jovi on his stadium tour through Germany. As a musician, Dittrich plays in the band Texas Lightning, who also had a No. 1 hit ("No No Never") and Top 5 album. The band represented Germany at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2006.

After working on the programme RTL Samstag Nacht for five years, Dittrich appeared in many television programmes, shows or films, such as Blind Date, Frühstücksfernsehen, and Dittsche. Currently, Dittrich is regarded in Germany as being one of the most versatile actors, specialized in creating fictional characters.
