Claudia de Breij is incredibly annoyed by Angela de Jong’s conservative side. The comedian even frankly calls her a ‘Karen’. “It’s my least favorite side of her.”
When Angela de Jong (46) talks about current affairs, it arouses some annoyance at Claudia de Breij (47). The cabaret artist finds the opinion diva of the AD very conservative in life. “That is my least favorite Angela de Jong,” writes the comedienne, who believes that the columnist has several sides, in the VARA guide.
Angela or Karen?
How exactly would she describe that side of Angela? “The grumpy Angela de Jong, who is waiting with the corners of her mouth turned to the South until it is her turn at the talk show table to make Karen statements. About the overreach of woke, climate rebellion or another movement with a more progressive signature than the Catholic Rural Women.”
‘Karen’ is a term used to mock a specific stereotype of a woman. It is usually used to describe a middle-class, white woman who behaves haughtily and is quick to seek conflict. Many people associate “Karen” with a lack of empathy and an inability to put yourself in someone else’s shoes.
Fearless
Yet there is also a side to Angela that Claudia can appreciate, namely her ‘fearless’ side. “Because she doesn’t care what people think of her, she can come out very unexpectedly and say terrible things about powerful TV people who everyone is a little afraid of (but they don’t like).”
She also likes it when Angela gives a compliment to types she “has a little bit of hate at home.” “That is my favorite Angela de Jong. People who openly dare to change their mind are rare. That is why I cherish Angela de Jong.”
