She never felt any discrimination as a woman. But now, at the age of 60, Ina Müller feels what it’s like to be systematically devalued – for some reason.

After singer and presenter Ina Müller turned 60 in the summer, she took the opportunity to express criticism. In interviews with “Gala” and “Playboy,” the Hamburg resident spoke about loneliness, life decisions – and the forms of discrimination she experienced for the first time.

Müller, known from the ARD show “Inas Night”, consciously decided not to have children and not marry. As friends started starting families in the 1990s, he traveled the country and built his career. Looking back, he has no regrets. However, this woman from Hamburg admitted that she sometimes came home after important days and wanted to talk. She can imagine all kinds of things in the future – from a shared apartment to therapy.

For the first time in his life, Müller now feels discriminated against, not because of his gender, but because of his age. In a “Playboy” interview he said: “Before we didn’t think older people were cool, we didn’t care about them, but we didn’t hate them. Today I feel like that respect is gone.” As a woman, she never felt disadvantaged, but she was able to fight it with all her might. Age discrimination is the only thing that really bothers him at the moment.

Müller’s new album “6.0”, created during a three-week stay in Mallorca, will be released on November 14. There was a lot of alcohol – more than he wanted. After returning, he entered a detox phase. The artist is planning a major tour of Germany with more than 50 concerts in October 2026.
