Matthijs van Nieuwkerk came to the Talpa building for an interview with Edwin Evers, but set all kinds of requirements there. “We were not allowed to approach him there with a camera crew.”
It has been a while since Matthijs van Nieuwkerk has shown himself in the Mediastad Hilversum, but yesterday the presenter suddenly appeared. The fallen television star was a guest in the weekly Edwin Evers show on Radio 538. He will be touring with the Sven Hammond Big Band next summer.
Expectations
Matthijs was in the studio to promote that tour and is not in the mood for difficult questions about the DWDD riot. “We spoke to each other. I really wanted you to have here in the broadcast and we have a moment – let’s say – had a conversation about – what will I call it – expectation management, “says Edwin Evers in his 538 show.
The presenter then says: “I was curious which way it went. I thought: we come here for the music, so let’s talk about it. And if you had said, “Do you have to hear, I don’t intend to do that at all,” I could have said again, “Then I don’t know so well.”
Forbidden topic
Edwin admits that there is one forbidden topic on the table: DWDD. “Let me set: you didn’t make any requirement, I just wanted you here and you said to me:” I just wouldn’t want it about it, “and I immediately said to you – we were there according to it I agree with me within a minute: “I don’t really want to talk about it either.”
“Enough has been said about it and if things still have to be said about, then you should only do that at a time that suits you. I also don’t think I’m the right person to talk to you about it. Nevertheless, I would like to know how you are doing, Matthijs. ”
“It’s going well”
Well, that’s an exciting question. Matthijs runs empty again over the door handle of the eatery that he had in his hand but did not dare to pull down? None of that. He keeps it short: “It’s going well.”
Edwin: “How were in recent months?”
Matthijs: “Well, a bit in preparation – let me walk immediately to the music – with Sven: are we going to do this? How are we going to do this? What is my role? Who are we going to do with? That was a cheerful run -up. “
Skillful
Edwin wants to have something of Matthijs and points him out. “You are agile, Matthijs, I completely understand you, but you also understand what I mean, I think.”
Matthijs: “Yes, well, in recent months … In recent years you could say … they were difficult for everyone who was involved in the program where we worked, I think, in his own way, and also for me . “
No role whatsoever
Does Matthijs return to TV? “TV does not play any role in my head at the moment. I certainly don’t dream of it. For me it is apparently not the holy grail for happiness and well -being. I don’t think about it and don’t make any plans for it. I do other things. Some smaller ambitions come my way and occasionally I say yes. “
Patty Brard reveals later in the evening Shownieuws That Matthijs had also demanded that he would not be filmed in the Talpa building, where the Radio 538 studio is located. “We saw him in the building and were not allowed to play it. He didn’t want to respond to us. “
