Cornald Maas is of course anything but a public favorite, but the Songfestival-Kletskous is now very much brought through the mangle. A Telegraaf columnist puts him down as a ‘TV narcist’.
It is quite surprising how someone who is so unpopular has been able to occupy the commentary box of the Eurovision Song Contest for years and years. Cornald Maas is totally not loved by the viewer and even Dutch celebrities have been calling for years to change the guard. How nice would it be to put someone who does have humor in that box?
Song festival wives
Year in year, we also see Cornald sitting at every farmer and fart who is left there on the Songfestival at a talk show table. For example, he was allowed to take a seat at last weekend Renze on Sunday. There, according to Telegraaf columnist Mark Koster, he hung out the ‘Songfestivalwijzendeus’ who briefly ‘loaded’ his ego.
Mark puts him in the newspaper Get rid of a ‘classic TV mupper that wants to be seen’. “Cornald Maas initially behaved reasonably well and complimented Leeflang (the resigned NPO boss, ed.) Because of her resolute performance during the Joost Klein-Drama. But Cornald never keeps that up for a long time. “
Flashing light on snout
After that, Cornald asserted himself very much again, says Mark. “Even with him that must flash on his snout. And yes, just after that he shot back into his role of Betweter when he flashly corrected Kees van der Spek. He wrongly expressed the name of participant Claude (Kloot instead of Klout). “
He prefers to look at athletes who have won a medal. “In the Netherlands, the real winners are allowed to give a few quotes to Jeroen Stekelenburg, after which they have to raise quickly for the TV warcists.”
