It will probably chase Trijntje Oosterhuis for the rest of her career: the Mediarel about the dress she wore at the Eurovision Song Contest. “She looked like a black teletubbie!”
It was a big riot of 2015: the dress that Trijntje Oosterhuis wore to the Songfestival. She had chosen a very bare dress first, namely the much -discussed tear dress. However, there was a lot of criticism of that. “If you come up with a dress with a crack to your pubic bone, you shouldn’t be surprised when there are comments,” Anouk said later.
Cracking dress
Trijntje was completely upset by that criticism and in a hurry she pulled another dress out of the closet. Well, dress … it was more a huge robe (see photo above). And that was really a terrible blunder, says dress expert Arno Kantelberg in the Humberto on Sunday from last night. “Of course a lot has been said about it,” he begins.
“That tear dress was not at all bad, only she wore it during the first performance and it was a little hilarious. She became uncertain of that and then she started to put on another. And if you just get some of the pile, you get the dress she wore at the First Dress Rehearsel. “
Teletubbie
Arno is referring to the enormous Hobbezak that Trijntje was wearing. “She did not know that after the rehearsel she had to wear it during the semi -final. And that is this. Yes, sorry … And the worst thing about it is: at one point the camera dings would go behind, but they had practiced that with that crack dress that was very nicely around her body …”
“If you are behind this … It’s silly to say, but you saw a black teletubbie. You saw a balloon so big. Yes, Trijntje can’t do anything about it, but it was chosen wrong.”
Expectation
Stefan Raatgever, the Songfestival connoisseur of the AD, then jumps in the breach for Trijntje. “Just to defend Trijntje: she was expecting here. It had to be a bit …”
Arno: “Falling spacious? Yes, then you shouldn’t make the mistake that …”
Frits Wester: “You can just see that someone is expecting?”
Arno: “Voila. Then you shouldn’t hide that. That tear dress was fine.”
Amateurish
Stefan then says about that pregnancy: “Yes, but that was not known.”
Arno: “With her, I think, but you don’t mean that?”
Frits: “Then you can’t see it yet?”
Arno: “You didn’t see it either.”
Stefan: “Well, she felt more comfortable in that.”
Arno: “I think it’s amateurish.”
