During his weeks at the Eurovision Songfestival, Claude gets exactly the same security team as last year’s participant, Joost Klein. “And that’s not good,” says RTL Boulevard star Aran Bade.
After the incredibly unpopular Joost Klein, we have a Eurovision Songfestival entry this year that is not at all controversial: Claude. Many people find him sympathetic and so far he does all the PR around the song festival also very cheerful and positive. This afternoon at 2.50 pm he will rehearse for the first time.

RTL Boulevard reporter Aran Bade fears a bit for the coming period, he says In the show section. “It is a striking thing: last year’s security is back and I wonder: is that handy?”
“It can also feel like surveillance. We had that feeling a bit last year, that the atmosphere changed as a result, because you still have a kind of check on such a delegation. I just had a moment to contact the AVROTROS of: why is that? There is also a person with him when he goes outside.”

Presenter Vivienne van den Assem understands that. “Isn’t that nice? It is really busy and everyone comes to you. To protect him a little.”
Aran: “On the one hand, but on the other hand it feels a bit oppressive, I think, and I think he is so fresh, cheerful and cheerful. So I hope that his team will also say: give that boy some rest. The Avrotros says:” It’s for the busy or spontaneous moments for the entire delegation. “
Van
Is it easy for reporters such as Aran to make contact with Claude? “It depends on his team. He will not be able to determine it himself, but I hope that there is a bit more relaxedness in it. It was very controlled very much last year, with three vans as Joost then had to leave.”
Three vans? “Yes, so that we did not know which van he was in. That was so bizarre and I thought that was really exaggerated. I hope it is going much more relaxed now and that management says so too.”
