André Hazes Jr. earns around 800,000 euros with his five-part series that will premiere on RTL’s Videoland in three weeks, says Evert San Credits. “That goes for eight tons, yes.”
The time has come: RTL announced yesterday when the Videoland series by André Hazes Jr. will start. The five episodes will be posted online simultaneously on October 20. He was filmed ‘during his burn-out and struggle with addictions’, which is exactly what people are curious about. And that’s good news for Videoland.
800,000 euros
Videoland of course hopes to score a lot of new subscribers with the Hazes documentary and the folk singer is heavily paid for this, says Privé boss Evert Sankrediets in his podcast. Strictly Private. “That will be close to eight tons, I think, yes.”
What does Evert think of André having himself filmed during rehab? “You get such a statement that they want to help other people with it and stuff and that it can be therapeutic. Look, it’s just a lot of money to be made, let that be clear. It is not for nothing that it is not on RTL 4, but on Videoland, for which you have to pay to see it.”
Weird number
Evert finds it disappointing that only five episodes have been made, while no less than two years have been played. “That is a very strange number. There are always six, eight or ten and I also think there is material for ten, but that so much has become obsolete that they think: this has to get out, that has to get out.”
Sarah van Soelen has also demanded that she be removed from the series. “And then they only have five left. That shouldn’t spoil the fun. I think there’s a huge amount of interest in how it all developed.”
meager score
Still, Evert had expected a bit more from it. “I think five is a bit of a poor score for a project that is so extensive and that took so many shooting days.”
It will be André a concern, according to Evert. “It will be a lucrative contract for him.”
