Hélène Hendriks finds it questionable that Peter van der Vorst only decided to make Temptation Island after a fuss in the media. on hold to put. “Yes, you shouldn’t do that on stage.”
Exploiting people for TV entertainment: it is becoming less and less accepted. And now that the most intense things are leaking about Temptation Island, the survival of that title seems to be in serious danger. Secretly drink in the orange juice? RTL denies it. But the Temptation suffering has led to at least two suicide attempts.
Criticism of Peter
RTL has known about the hassle behind the scenes for some time – 30,000 euros was even paid to a candidate couple afterwards – but only after a fuss in the media did Bobo Peter van der Vorst decide to cancel the show. on hold to put.
Johan Derksen questions Peter’s motives. “This is a typical case… Peter van der Vorst has really been guided by the negative media that have said something about it, but if you watch a program like this, you will discover for yourself that it is not possible?” he says at the table Today Inside.
For the stage
Table guest Hélène Hendriks also thinks it’s a weak meal. “I understood that they were aware of those complaints before. Then I think: yes, then you shouldn’t say on stage, because it is now in the media, that you are putting it on hold under pressure from… Then you should have done it earlier!”
Wilfred Genee notes: “On hold does not mean it stops. It cost them a lot of money.”
Magic of TV
Some point out that these candidates knew what they were getting into, but, Hélène says: “The urge to become known, to become an influencer and thus gain fame very quickly… Then you can say that the naivete is there. is a bit off if you know the program, but ultimately it is also a kind of magic that television.”
Bert van der Veer says in it A.D that RTL should simply continue with Temptation, but Johan finds that objectionable: “That means that you only look at entertainment and viewing figures and no longer have any morals.”
Remarkable
Lawyer Sébas Diekstra, who represents the Temptation victims, also has doubts about Peter van der Vorst’s motives. He says in RTL Boulevard: “Several clients find the fact that the program is only now being paused due to the fuss is at least remarkable.”
Peter already knew this, Sébas wants to say. “What is striking is that a large number of the complaints were already known. There was even a mediation process with two clients, after which they received compensation of 30,000 euros.”
Paper thin format
At Shownieuws, the program that always helps extensively when the new season of the Peter Gillis soap has to be promoted, they are also critical. “It’s such a wafer-thin format. It is actually no longer possible,” says Patty Brard.
And Natacha Harlequin finds the 30,000 euros that RTL paid to a candidate couple suspicious. “I think it would be wise for RTL to explain this.”
