Tina Nijkamp and Victor VLAM compete with each other around the spotlights in today inside. She made her debut at the table, he still has to go on the bar stool. Will Tina be hijacked soon?
It is no secret that Peter van der Vorst stands at the exit of the today Inside Studio with a rattling wallet: one successful VI-guest after the other is bought away for the new competitor RTL Tonight. There is probably no interest in Victor Vlam – too conservative – but what about VI’s new ones Rising Star Tina Nijkamp?
Tina not called
Tina did a lot of fun at VI last week and that must also have been noticed at RTL 4. Does she also switch to the competitor after Albert Verlinde, Ben van der Burg and Lale Gül?
When asked if she has already had a bell from the RTL top, Tina answers in the podcast The Media Week: “No, I didn’t call and I wouldn’t do that either. No, I don’t want exclusively.”
250,000 euros
Could Tina be fiddling for two tons a year? “Well, for two tons. Hahaha. Two and a half tons, well, then I want to think about it! Hahaha. No, I wouldn’t do it, not even for two and a half tons.”
Incidentally, such amounts are not feasible at RTL Tonight, Tina thinks. “If you are not really exclusive, you are not in two and a half tons, but on normal amounts. I understood something of 3,000 euros per broadcast. That is serious money.”
Autonomous
In any case, VI does not have to worry. “So I wouldn’t want it, because, yes, then you’re so stuck there. I like that you’re sitting there, then sitting there and yes, I’m just a little too autonomous for that, I think.”
Co-host Mark Koster: “Do you think those people who sit there will also tackle RTL programs?”
Tina: “Well, those people who have been chosen, very striking, there is no media expert at that. Albert Verlinde is of course Showbizz-Slash Media expert.”
Crack
Albert gets all showbiz and media. “He has already said, he himself is sitting two to three times a week, so he takes that entire part under him. For the rest there is no media expert, so the cracking of television programs lies with him and the rest are experts in other areas.”
There are four experts per evening at RTL Tonight. “Yes, that is a lot. I get a lot of news from the day feeling. It will be a desk and there is then the public. The decor seems to be beautiful. I think they should be careful that they don’t get a road buy image. That never makes such a channel as sympathetic when you buy people away.”
