Eddy Kante | Udo Lindenberg’s Bodyguard

Eddy Kante wasn’t only Udo Lindenberg’s bodyguard as he is also a friend and confidante, and they even ended up working together in the entertainment scene. Mind you, thanks to Lindenberg, Kante got TV credits, appearing on Großstadtrevier, Bella Block and K11- Kommissare im Einsatz. He also recorded with his rock star boss, and together, they appeared in the music video for Ganz Anders.

However, because of Kante’s book, they ended up 33 years of working together. He just laughed at Lindenberg when he was firing him, not thinking it was true at all. He couldn’t imagine he could do it, knowing the singer had trusted him so badly. Kante had Lindenberg’s personal belongings, and the latter didn’t mind it at all. Sadly, their close bond ended and even resulted in a lawsuit for alleged outstanding wage payments, amounting to 563,000 Euros. Anyhow, after an out-of-court agreement, we all hope everything has now been settled between the two.
