André Hamann

The 2 Minute Interview

André Hamann is one of those guys you really should be jealous of. But you just can’t because not only is he brazenly handsome, talented in many ways and incredibly successful – to top it all off, he also manages to stay super nice, polite and humble through it all. He was discovered during his traineeship at H&M, made a career as a model, lived in Athens and Cape Town. Today, dear André has 1 million followers on Instagram (yes, that’s right: ONE MILLION!), his fashion label „Haze & Glory“ recently opened it’s first pop-up store at Bikini Berlin and right now, he’s launching his own fitness programme „Absolut André“ in New York. What, that’s all?! Nope. Last Thursday he made an appearance at Germany’s Next Top Model, where he introduced his new label and hand-picked some of the new faces for his show. This just sounds too perfect and gives us reason to launch a most thorough investigation. Seriously: where’s the catch?

We’ve got to ask: are you single?
Unfortunately, I’ve been single for six years. I’m still waiting for her.

 

What’s the first thing you do after waking up?
Turn on music, check emails, and enjoy a glass of lemon water.

 

Isn’t it really hard work to always stay in shape?
No, quite the opposite. You just have to be willing to change a few habits, eat the right food and do the really efficient workouts.

 

Model, designer, fitness guru, musician…could you please make up your mind!?
That’s exactly what I’ve decided on. Best of all: all these things enhance each other and are sources of inspiration… so, I never get bored.

 

How do you keep almost a million followers on instagram happy?
With a positive attitude that I try to pass on to people with my photos and messages.

 

Who is going to Germanys Next Top Model 2016?
I have no influence on that. ;) But I do have a favourite.

 

What are you proud of?
My family, my friends, and what I’ve managed to achieve by myself.

 

What are you no good at?
I’m never really mad at anyone.

 

Share a magical place anywhere in the world.
I did a lot of travelling over the past six years and was able to see wonderful places. The most beautiful was Cape Town. Because of the lovely weather and the ocean there is an awful lot that has a magical effect on me.

 

What song makes you cry?
If I cry, then only tears of joy. For example when hearing City & Colour’s „Against the grain“.

 

Which super power would you like to have?
I’ve always seen myself as Spiderman – he’s extraordinary and does good.

 

What would you cook for us if we visited you at home?
One of my 100 delicious AbsolutAndre recipes.

 

What are you afraid of?
Death.

 

What would you change if you had the power to?
No wars, no hunger, no envy!

 

What should no one know about you?
That I feel really lonely sometimes.

 

Which question should we have asked?
What exactly do you do to stay in shape?

 

Last Words:
Let’s go!
