Bushido Loses €500,000 Question on 'Wer wird Millionär?' Charity Special

The rapper's incorrect answer on a cinema-related question dropped his winnings from €500,000 to €500, though he pledged to donate €32,000 from his own funds.

• Bushido participated in the celebrity edition of 'Wer wird Millionär?' to raise funds for the RTL Spendenmarathon charity event.
• He confidently progressed through the quiz, using all his lifelines before reaching the €500,000 question.
• The pivotal question asked which group associates the 'Wilhelm scream' with a cult following; Bushido incorrectly answered 'Sopranistinnen' instead of the correct answer, 'Cineasten' (film enthusiasts).
• Host Günther Jauch repeatedly cautioned Bushido about the financial risk, but the rapper decided to gamble despite the stakes.
• Although his winnings fell to €500, Bushido promised to personally donate €32,000, contributing to the event's total of €253,500 raised for charity.
