Matthijs van Nieuwkerk gets a cold shower from Jan Uriot. The Private star journalist criticizes the behavior of the NPO presenter. “He seems to have been a tyrant, but after a question he runs away!”
Rumors abound that the stern behavior that Matthijs van Nieuwkerk has displayed for years behind the scenes of De Wereld Draait Door has been much less innocent than was previously believed. In fact, he would have behaved downright monstrous on the studio floor.
Tyrant runs away
Matthijs was in front of the Shownieuws camera at the beginning of the week and a reporter made an attempt to ask him about this. However, the presenter immediately took off. He doesn’t want to be asked about this.
Bland, says Private star journalist Jan Uriot. He says in his column Wat Vindt Jan: “Matthijs is annoying when he is asked by a camera crew from SBS 6: ‘Were you really such an annoying gentleman in the old days at De Wereld Draait Door?’ Because that’s what’s happening right now. He seems to have been a tyrant, but then he runs away.”
“Why run away?”
Jan thinks that’s outrageous. “Then I think: well, Matthijs, he must indeed have had media training, that you should not run away in any case. In the past, of course, you shouldn’t run away from him at the table, because then he wouldn’t have had any guests. So why does he run away now when questions are asked?”
It’s really unwise, he continues. “Matthijs, never run away of course. Do it with a joke. Say, “I’m the nicest man on earth! I am a giant treasure!’ Then you can get rid of it and run away.”

Matthijs will be at the bottom of Jan’s ‘sterrometer’. “I have a picture of him here. It looks like a lady, but it really is Matthijs. It makes me a bit cold now and puts it in the freezer.”
Incidentally, the outfit with which Matthijs appeared in front of the Shownieuws camera is completely slated by Jan Roos. “He has a little the old lesbian syndrome. That man has come to believe in himself too much. With those Bassie & Adriaan pants and yellow glasses and a cap. That man is over sixty. Isn’t this terrible?”, he says in Gossip Talk.
