Gordon has been made completely ridiculous and laughed at in RTL Boulevard because he wants to raise money to adjust Whitney Houston’s grave. “Will there be a hot dog stall next?”
It all gives Gordon a lot of attention: his plan to pimp the Whitney Houston grave. The entertainer was in New York last week, where he visited the singer’s grave and was not satisfied with what he found. According to him, it is not nice enough for someone with her stature and he wants to change that.
Laughed at
According to Gordon, Whitney, who lies next to family members who have a modest grave, deserves better. He visits all the media to tell about his action. Yesterday, for example, he spoke to RTL Boulevard and Shownieuws. Afterwards he was pretty critical in both programs.
Presenter Daphne Bunskoek even starts to laugh at Gordon RTL Boulevard. “But Luuk! You can’t just renovate someone else’s grave?” She guesses.
“This is my grave!”
Luuk Iink always knows how to keep himself in the fold, but now he doesn’t keep it. “Yes, that is Gordon, he can. He says that in America is possible. That there is a law that you can just say:” This is now my grave. I adopt that grave. “
Daphne: “I don’t like the grave!”
Jeroen Kijk in De Vegte: “But if that family is happy with that, with what it is?”
“Adopt!”
Luuk does not find it to follow. “No, you see that completely wrong, Jeroen! Gordon went there and he thought: damn that grave doesn’t look good, I’m going to adopt it!”
At the moment, Goor is busy raising money. “Then I think a whole tomb will come up and a hot dog stall next to, I don’t know what will happen! It will be totally big. Interesting.”
Aran Bade and Nikkie de Jager also laugh Gordon.
“F*cking nobody!”
Ronald Molendijk believes that Gordon is going too far, he says in Shownieuws. “Just to be clear: I think only your family and maybe one or two very good friends has something to do with how your grave is there.”
He continues: “For the rest, I think everyone should not get involved at all. F*cking is no one. It’s bad enough that you are dead. That is annoying. But apart from that fact: that family has chosen for that.”
‘Daughter next to it’
You cannot also pimp Whitney’s grave and not that of her daughter, says Evert Santegoeds. “The daughter is also wrong.”
Ronald: “I may understand that it is very bad for Gordon and that he is touched by it. I can’t look his head in that man – thank goodness, I would say – but I think sincerely … whether you are a great artist or as an absolute nobody goes into the ground: just keep it off with you. It’s just that family or friends. Those are the only people who think something about it. “
First contact
Evert thinks it all very brash from Gordon. “He will first have to have contact with the family, if he wants to do something there at all, I think. Do you want to make a bigger grave of it? Do you just want to maintain it? Then as Gordon you don’t need a foundation to put a few plants down.”
“If he really wants to build another grave, then that is not possible without the family’s permission, even though he says that it could be, but I would not burn my fingers if I were him in America.”
