Rob Goossens continues to arouse a lot of misunderstanding with his choice to participate in Ranking the Stars shortly after the riot about his ChatGPT mistresses. “He’s almost like a masochist. Incomprehensible.”
We had just forgotten that strange story about Rob Goossens and his ChatGPT mistresses, but now he keeps that story alive by participating in Ranking the Stars. For two episodes we have seen how he is used as a bully by candidates such as Patty Brard and Gordon, but also by presenter Paul de Leeuw.
Masochist Rob
Why is Rob doing this now? TV expert Paul Römer, who until recently worked as a Talpa bobo, doesn’t understand it. “I think this is the most special thing about this year [de deelname van] Rob Goossens,” he says Good morning Netherlands.
“That is a gentleman who presents the show news at RTL and has a bit of a private problem because he has exchanged text messages with a mistress and that man is being treated so incredibly harshly and made fun of. He’s almost some kind of masochist for sitting there. Incomprehensible.”
Incomprehension for Sébas
What Paul finds most incomprehensible is that Sébas Diekstra is participating. “I am surprised that someone like Sébas Diekstra, who is a lawyer and would rather defend his people on TV than in court, would sit there. Why are you doing that? How are you still taken seriously the next day after sitting there? But yes, it does happen.”
“I don’t understand why Lilian Marijnissen and Sébas Diekstra would sit there. I understand that Gordon and Patty are there, because they make a living from it, so to speak.”
In repetition
By the way, Paul finds the whole program a bit lazy. “Yes, you know… You can actually see from the new programs this spring that there is a lot more of the same and a lot is done from repetition. I understand that this is coming back, because this program has been very successful, especially when Paul presents it.”
“That you bring that back, yes, I understand that. At the same time I think: yes, it would be nice if we tried something new and not always fall back on old successes. But I’ve seen the first episode and it makes you smile again. Would I ever sit there myself? I like to sit here and never there.”
