Danny de Munk may be taken off the tube by SBS 6, where he currently has an important role in the poorly viewed Saturday evening show De Hollandse Nieuwe. “The station is under consideration.”
It has been about two months since Yvonne Coldeweijer was the first to report on the alleged misconduct of Danny de Munk. She was then still maligned by RTL Boulevard and Shownieuws, but now there is a report of rape. And that is why SBS 6 has a huge problem: can De Hollandse Nieuwe still continue?
Consultation at SBS 6
De Hollandse Nieuwe is a talent show on location with Jeroen van der Boom as the central presenter. Singers audition in their own living room in front of jury members Danny de Munk, René Froger and Samantha Steenwijk. They then give their opinion about the performance.
According to Albert Verlinde, it is highly questionable whether SBS 6 can still broadcast a program with someone who is suspected of rape. “Tomorrow there will be deliberations about what will happen with it,” said the show expert in Shownieuws last night.
Sad for Talpa
Albert is very sorry for Talpa, the parent company of SBS 6. “Then we have Talpa again. It is also sometimes as if you think: ah, we must have that transmitter! We couldn’t reach them tonight, but of course they’re going to look like: what can we do?”
He continues: “Of course he has only been charged, a complaint has been made. That does not mean that there is actually something or that he can no longer work or whatever, but you will look at him differently in the coming time.”
Ali and Marco
It could all take a very long time for Danny, says Albert. “You don’t know how long this will take. That’s the trouble with this sort of thing. It’s on the table and look at Marco Borsato and Ali B and how long that has been going on.”
Danny denies all allegations. The singer has responded through his lawyer Royce de Vries. He himself hasn’t said anything yet.
‘Babe!’
Meanwhile Danny gets on his social media overloaded with negative comments. “Bastard ???”, says Arien. And Erwin: “What am I reading now!? Charges against you for raping a young girl! “
Tim actually supports Danny. “Don’t believe that you should have done it. Suddenly every celebrity is obsessed with women. Now fifteen years ago. Definitely smell money.”
