Hans Kraay Jr. went on holiday with Khalid Kasem, all the way to South Africa. Why is that exactly? Are those gentlemen friends with each other? “No, but I did become an ambassador.”
It is strange: Hans Kraay Jr. showed up last night The Orange Winter with the message that he had such a nice long holiday. Where to? To South Africa. In the background we all saw professional photos from that trip. And in one of them he poses with none other than the controversial former NPO star Khalid Kasem…
Privileged
Hans had a great time, he says. “Sophie and I went to South Africa. First to Cape Town and then we had a safari for about four or five days.”
TV critic Victor Vlam, who is also in the studio: “Did I just see that you were on holiday with Khalid Kasem?”
Hans: “Uh, yes, because Sophie and I are very privileged – and I say that from the bottom of my heart – that we will be the ambassadors of D-reizen Verre Reizen in the coming years.”
Ambassadors
Table guest Valentijn Driessen is itching to hear that term. “Ambassadors?! What is it about? It’s just a regular commercial man.”
Rutger Castricum: “His pockets filled!”
Valentine: “Collect money. Ambassador!”
Hans: “We are the proud ambassadors of D-reizen and have recorded three very nice commercials there with Khalid, among others. Was he just on screen?”
‘Very happy’
Khalid, who had to give up his NPO 1 talk show Khalid & Sophie due to all kinds of questionable misconduct, now works at D-reizen. Victor: “Khalid was of course from the talk show Khalid & Sophie and left there due to various circumstances. Now he indeed works at D-reizen in a management position.”
Hans: “I am very happy with Khalid.”
