Angela de Jong has apparently caused bad blood at RTL Boulevard, because the show section claims that viewers were massively annoyed by her performance on De Slimste Mens. “Arrogant!”
It was a lightning performance by Angela de Jong: her return in the anniversary season of De Slimste Mens. She flew out immediately on Monday evening. Yet she played very well and came close to becoming the winner of the day. A quick exit, but according to… RTL Boulevard went off with viewers…
Unsympathetic
Angela’s actions have hardly provoked any reactions social mediabut based on four tweets, RTL Boulevard headlined: ‘Viewers are annoyed by Angela de Jong in De Slimste Mens: ‘Unsympathetic’.
“Many viewers said on X that they did not mind that Angela had to leave the field. During the episode, messages appeared on X in which people showed that they were bothered by the columnist’s attitude. For example, she was called ‘arrogant’ and other viewers indicated that they found her ‘unsympathetic’.”
Revenge?
Ehh, isn’t this magnification of a few reactions to X a very obvious act of revenge? Is the niece of Albert Verlinde (the editor-in-chief of RTL Boulevard) angry that Angela has strongly criticized the censorship applied to the show section? For example, she said that BLVD has ‘shaking knees’ for Linda de Mol…
RTL Boulevard has also received this tease from Angela Facebook published, but receives surprisingly little support. Striking, because most Boulevard viewers on Facebook always go crazy about everything and everyone. “What nonsense… She was just very good! Just like the rest of course!”, says Willemien.
‘Have respect!’
Daan also doesn’t really understand what Boulevard is talking about. “It’s all not too bad. Angela is herself. Have respect.”
Gerrit: “Nothing to complain about, she did well.”
Stans: “What fun and grumbling again. Man, don’t get annoyed! Boulevard, do something about your negativity! Merry Christmas! 🌲🍀”
And Elly: “She was very good and a sporting loser too. She was just herself and didn’t have to lick anyone’s heels.”
Commentary
Tineke can’t place Boulevard’s message very well either. “What a comment on Angela. And yes, she is confident and yes I often agree with her. And she did very well and it’s a shame she’s out.”
There are also people who appreciate BLVD’s tease, like Sander. He says: “She is so cold and she reinforces that with that hard Dutch ‘r’. But I think she’s a fine woman.”
Theo: “And that wig she is wearing is ugly too.”
Hey? Wig? Maybe RTL Boulevard can investigate that… Exciting!
