Albert Verlinde thinks it is awkward that Lisa Loeb shouts from the rooftops that she has received death threats through her participation in the smartest person. “Just keep your mouth shut.”
Lisa Loeb gets a lot of hate reactions over her through her participation in De Slimste Mens – she could be seen in the program until mid -this week. “Yes. It is very cool to say: it doesn’t touch me. But it does touch me. It is a nice program and you want to make fun television. It’s a shame that you get a lot of shit over you. “
Death threat
She doesn’t sit in the cold clothes, Lisa says in it Ad. “I consciously chose not to take braces, so most reactions are about my appearance. Last week I even had a death threat. I’m going to report that this weekend. “
“It’s the first time for me, so I first asked the police for advice. But they advised me to do this, also so that it is registered. Many people say: those hate reactions are part of it when you get into the media. Isn’t that actually the world upside down? “
Game
Albert Verlinde does not understand what people are so concerned about. “It’s a spell, huh, we always say in Brabant. It is not about anything at all, you participate in the smartest. But people apparently find it worth threatening people, because they find them annoying or whatever. Well, you can. But death threats? ”
He continues in Good morning Netherlands: “I just don’t know if it is so wise to call that in public. You can also make a declaration and say nothing about it. “
Silence
Lisa is better off silence, says Albert. “She wants to make a point and many people want that and I am sometimes threatened in my life, but it also gives people who do a threat of: I matter, you understand, it is talked about, it is talking about it, it has results. ”
Presenter Sam Hagens: “And someone might do it more often.”
Albert: “Right. Yes, sometimes I think: just keep your mouth shut and make that declaration. “
Horrible
Albert can also talk about it himself. “I have experienced it a lot in my career. It is horrible to experience, until security, but yes, sometimes you have that for a while and then you have to bite, I think. ”
According to him, you shouldn’t take it too seriously either. “There are so many people. In the past you had to write a letter and if you were now downstairs to look for a stamp, you thought: you know what, let’s sit too. And now you just have to sit in your phone type and it has already been sent. “
