German Soap Award
The German Soap Award began for the first time in 2011 as an event organised by mypromi.de and VIPshare Media for German Soap Operas and Telenovelas. The awards started because more than 33 million viewers watch the series, yet its actors and actresses have barely been acknowledged, often overlooked in other award ceremonies, not taking their acting abilities serious. The Nominees in each category are chosen by a jury and then the winner of the award are determined by a vote on the Internet.
