Raaf from Tilburg (9) plays little Joost Klein in ‘Europapa’

9-year-old Raaf van Dommelen from Tilburg attracts a lot of attention as little Joost Klein in the video clip Europapa. Millions of people saw the video of the song that is participating in this year’s Eurovision Song Contest. Raven is mainly on screen in the last seconds of the clip. “Very cool,” says Raven.

The video clip Europapa was shown for the first time last Thursday during De Avondshow with Arjen Lubach. The video has now been viewed 5.3 million times YouTube Viewed.

“I think it’s a lot of cool, because I’m just a boy from Tilburg.”

It is not the first time that Raaf has collaborated with Joost Klein. Last year he could already be seen in videos that the Frisian artist posted on TikTok. They are not brothers, but they seem like they are. “We just look very much alike,” says Raven. “And he is also very nice.”

Raven is very happy that the video clip has been viewed so many times. “I think it’s really cool, because I’m just a boy from Tilburg,” he says Youth news.

Older sister Fiene is also very proud of Raaf. “All my girlfriends and friends saw that it was my brother. I think that’s very cool.”

“It’s a beautiful video clip and a song that stays in your head.”

Meanwhile, Raven has seen the video dozens of times and can dream the cheerful melody. He is sure that his friend Joost is a contender with Europapa to win the Eurovision Song Contest in Sweden. “It is a beautiful video clip and a song that stays in your head. Then it is really a song that will get twelve points,” he concludes.
