Jan Smit always gets very nasty when an interviewer asks him about a subject he doesn’t want to discuss, and yesterday it was that far again. After a question from Humberto Tan: “Get a Life!“”
As a starting artist you don’t have to try it, but Jan Smit has now achieved a status where he can divert questions in a very blunt way without being settled on it. He is always known to be very neat when topics are brought about what he does not want to talk about, such as the Eurovision Song Contest.
Muzzle
Jan was involved in the song festival for years, but left in a mysterious way in 2023. Aran Bade received him in front of the camera at the time and found a very ‘hostile’ Jan. When the reporter continued to ask if his departure had something to do with floppinning Mia & Dion, he snarled: “I think you should hear better, Aran.”
All the while later, Cornald Maas has now revealed the reason for Jans Exit: indeed Mia & Dion. He recently said: “That year he did not sit in the cold clothes. He didn’t stop it for nothing. It was not a nice year. How you were muzzled as a presenter, that you couldn’t speak to anyone.”
Jan responds
Humberto Tan asks Jan about it talk show From last night on RTL 4. “Before I go to your new single, I have to ask you, because it is a few months ago: you have long said goodbye to the Songfestival and suddenly Cornald Maas comes with a comment.”
“He says:” Yes, but Jan left because he was just mouth shut by AVROTROS. That is the reason he left. “
“Get a life!”
Jan’s mood, who is sitting at the table to promote a song, then changes. “He didn’t say that and that is a bit wrong, but that is nonsense. Anyway, I stopped doing that three years ago and apparently it is still interesting. Yes, not for me, but for a number of people from the media. Yes, Get A Life. “
Humberto: “No, Jan, no … Cornald said in that direction:” You couldn’t say anything about Mia & Dion and that was the reason. “
Listen well
Jan believes that Humberto did not do his job well. “Yes, but he didn’t say that I had stopped. Then you just have to listen to it, the podcast.”
Humberto: “He said it played a role.”
Jan makes a taste with his mouth and says, “Well, not with me anyway.”
Humberto: “Yes, but with him.”
Head turns off
Jan then turns his head and notes irritated on: “I can’t speak on behalf of Cornald, only on behalf of myself.”
What does Volendammer always do very difficult if he is asked such a logical question. Anyway, Humberto understands: “Three years ago, over.”
Jan: “Right.”
