The hashtag ‘fair photo’? According to Story journalist Nick Dijkman, Linda de Mol does not care about that. He points to the latest LINDA. cover: “She has been photoshopped twenty kilos lighter!”
Linda de Mol has been at home almost full-time since the misconduct of her lover Jeroen Rietbergen came to light. She only leaves her driveway when golden suitcases need to be opened or when she feels like being on the cover of the LINDA. to stand. The latter is no longer self-evident.
20 kilos lighter
The fallen TV queen is on the cover of her own magazine this month, this time in a shirt with ‘Love Amalia’. Linda hopes that people will wear this shirt en masse on King’s Day. It turns out to be a smart commercial move: you can buy the shirts for 15 euros at HEMA. ‘Condescending’, says Rob Goossens.
But is there anything else striking about that cover? According to Story journalist Nick Dijkman, yes. He tweets: “Linda also shopped 20 kg lighter, she has lost all credibility, hasn’t she.”
Question marks
A tough accusation. However, most critics question Linda’s intentions. They think that Love Amalia shirt is suspicious. “Undoubtedly well intended for the wallet,” sneered Twitter user Roel.
Star tweeter Mies: “How many misses from the LINDA. isn’t this already? Dumb blondies, sorrynotsorry.”
And Eline Verburg, entertainment chief of De Telegraaf: “Embarrassing action.”
Celebration of nothing
While Linda is busy with the misery surrounding her sweetheart Jeroen, her magazine LINDA is ‘celebrating’. meanwhile the twentieth anniversary. Some pub had been hired yesterday where some stars were present. And Linda? There wasn’t. One had to make do with her co-editor in chief Karin Swerink. In other words: a party of nothing.
Story boss Guido den Aantrekker thinks it is logical that Linda was not there. He says in Show news: “Of course that was to be expected if you think from Linda.”
‘Heavy for Linda’
Linda has little to gain from such a visit to her own party, Guido thinks. “Look: there is so much going on around Linda and she occasionally comments on it. I can imagine that it is also very difficult for her privately.”
“If you go there now, you know that it is no longer about anything else all afternoon through all the media, like: ‘Are you still with Jeroen? What do you think about it?’ Of course that takes the shine off twenty years of LINDA a bit. away.”
