Thomas van Luyn believes that there is a disproportionate amount of media attention for the case of Glennis Grace. “It’s just a problem family, isn’t it? Not a terrorist cell,” said the comedian.
Thomas van Luyn is very surprised that after nine months there is still so much media attention for the fighting Glennis Grace. The singer was last night with a long interview in the talk show of Eva Jinek to say sorry for her misconduct in the Jumbo.
Problem family
Now it’s been nice, Thomas tweeted. The comedian thinks the media attention is exaggerated. “That bit of Grace and son in the supermarket was, of course, pretty bad. But not bad enough to make it into newspapers and talk shows seven months later… it’s just a problem family, isn’t it? Not a terrorist cell. Shit happens.”
His follower Astrid disagrees. “If it was your hard-working teenage son who got the wrath of this mob, were you so forgiving?”
‘Silence is better’
Jermaine Ellenkamp, crime journalist for RTL Boulevard, writes in a column that Glennis should have kept quiet. “The apology at the beginning of the broadcast felt anything but sincere to me,” he says. “She sat there for herself, to make sure that the public felt that she takes responsibility for her actions.”
You take responsibility in court, continues Jermaine. “The most telling was Glennis’ statement at the end of the interview: ‘I hope we can figure it out.’ Apparently the lawsuit for the singer is some kind of negotiation? My God. Sometimes you just have to shut up.”
own grave
What does Angela de Jong think? She doesn’t believe anything about Glennis either. “It all started with Glennis’ carefully selected pink sweater, with pearl buttons and a modest collar, which had to radiate innocence,” she writes in the newspaper. AD. “And then the rehearsed sentence ‘I don’t want to be the victim’, which she did afterwards of course.”
It all did not come across as sympathetic, Angela thinks. “It also became painfully clear that they had not practiced hard enough on a crocodile tear. Because no matter how hard Glennis did her best, this little play was still missing.”
Yvonne critical
Yvonne Coldeweijer, who was the first to report on Glennis’ misconduct nine months ago, is especially critical of the way in which Eva has interviewed Jinek. If she had confronted her with her own lies right in the moment, the interview would have been sharper and therefore better. juice channel.
And columnist Jan Dijkgraaf agrees. He says in his Letter from Jan to Eva: “Even when Glennis G. made fun of herself (on the one hand she claimed to have a blackout, on the other she remembered every second exactly…) you don’t head into such a cross for open goal. Certainly afraid that your blond hairs would get tangled.”
