Job Knoester opens the attack on the ever-troubled Gordon. The singer has now said on the radio again that he is related to Elvis Presley and that immediately earns him shit: “That guy is crazy!”

Another name can be added to the list of celebrities that Gordon absolutely never wants to talk to again, because Job Knoester admitted himself last night. Today Inside quite scathingly said about the entertainer. Goor said on the radio that he is related to Elvis Presley and that earned him a lot of ridicule.

‘I didn’t know’

Wilfred Genee brings it up at the table. “Speaking of Elvis: I didn’t know it, but it now turns out that a good colleague of ours is also related to Elvis.”

Then a fragment from Gordon starts: “I always thought I was Swedish, that I was Jewish and I don’t know much else. (…) But Elvis Presley is indirectly… Well, or just directly, related to me. They have Dutch ancestors with the name Bunschoten. (…) In front of you is: a relative of Elvis Presley. It is a fact.”

‘Got crazy!’

Wilfred is very cynical about it. “I didn’t know that either. Did you know that or not?”

Job Knoester then: “What the heck is this? Isn’t that guy completely crazy?”

Wilfred: “There is no harm in it.”

René van der Gijp: “There is no harm in it. He is deadly serious!”

Wilfred: “I did indeed have that feeling, yes.”

René: “He is dead serious.”

‘Oprah dead’

Wilfred has to chuckle about it. “He just sent me a video of something else he was singing. I said, ‘Just like Elvis Presley.’ He also had to laugh very hard. He is very serious about it.”

Political reporter Jeanneau van Beurden: “Is he also going to adopt that grave? Where did he do that the other day? With that singer? He recently asked what’s-her-name… Oprah Winfrey? He had adopted the grave, then he went there and got flowers at a gas station or something.”

Wilfed: “Whitney Houston.”

Flowers

Jeanneau corrects herself. “Yes, Whitney Houston. That’s what it was like. He had put flowers on the grave and was completely adopted.”

Wilfred: “Yes, that grave was not well maintained.”

Jeanneau: “Yes, maybe that is also the case here. I don’t know.”

After the commercial break, Jeanneau announces that Oprah Winfrey is still alive. “Yes, she is still alive. I just declared her dead. Apologies. I saw that she has something like 3 billion in her account and is still alive.”
