THE VOICE OF HOLLAND

The aftertalk

Do you know about May who was going to The Voice? Including sniffing backstage? Well, that didn't happen. Something with a temperature of 39.1 and an uncontrollable urge to lie in bed with three blankets. But watching, that worked out. Thermometer on the left, mandarins on the right, and I even tried it with a glass of wine for a touch of festive feeling, but that remained untouched. But well, he was there anyway. Enough introductory rambling, let's go.

Already regret

Waylon. I can't handle this sight of you on that LP. I could have stood there at walking distance.

The necklace

From a pretty reliable source I know that Wendy had access to the it-item du moment from Dannijo last week, but because there were fewer fashion-loving types on set (I think they should be ritualistically removed when looks are discussed. Manon, a tip I got from the wise Harriet Calo and what always works is to say that an outfit is only truly successful when people just don't get it. Like that.) who had a dog leash association, Wendy chose an ear cuff. Luckily, Pleun dares to wear the necklace. The rest of the outfit could have been a bit calmer in my opinion. What do you say? That a look is really successful if... I'll keep my mouth shut.

The vlaflip

Manon, you said my father should rinse his mouth after he said he thought Waylon had a bicycle chain around his neck. That turned out to be a scarf from Chanel. Sorry, Coco. My father seems to have obediently followed your advice and then blurted it out about this week's jacket from Waylon. But seriously, Waylon is a rockstar. He delivers. Even with his looks. And those can occasionally be a bit different.

Do the grapevine

All the jury members go wild when Waylon is on stage with Pleun. The direction treats us to a shot of the back of the hopping jury. Sanne, in my opinion, you've done the grapevine a bit too often at the local aerobics class. Oh Sanne, I really like everything, everything, everything about you. But let's not beat around the bush. Dancing is not your forte.

About Wendy

May I just say that I find you at your prettiest with the makeup from Gwendolyn van Waveren? And may I have your hair? And while we're at it, maybe your body too? You had a nice casual cool yet festive suit on. A bomber jacket 2.0 (I'm in love with the one from Dries Van Noten) from Gigi for Tommy. Did I tell you I was at that show? And just high-fived with Gigi? Anyway. Very nice jacket, you can also wear it inside out. And that sequined shorts from 7 For All Mankind can go in my closet. Also nice with those studded ankle boots from Isabel Marant that you and Manon have. Is the heel already off yours too? Quality and price is a slight mismatch, but that's beside the point.

Guus, Martijn

Is the vest the new DS? Blue is definitely the new black. Looks good, guys.

Drummerboy

If I come next week, I'll bring a jacket for you. Or does that not drum well? But something with a sleeve? Come on…?

#Thijs

Do you also always find ‘daffodils’ such a beautiful word?

Isabel

Do you know that feeling? That something is so beautiful that your nose starts to tingle? A sort of pre-stage of crying. And now I'm crying.

Saved by the bell Ali

I often agree with Waylon, but especially when it comes to Dwight. I didn't feel him either, this song. The sex, the hunger, I missed it. Waylon says it much better and discusses the essence of the song. Ali, are you seriously saying you don't know what the song is about? That the melody is more important than the message? Okeee. Waylon helps you. ‘When I get you alone’, that means the song is about what he's going to do with that woman when he has her all to himself. Ali retaliates: “Or when you get a loan. When I get you a loan.”

Ali, the most beautiful flowers grow along the abyss. You just got away with that beautifully.

Leon Sherman

So curious what the jury will say about this. I don't know. I got a bit scared of you. With those clenched fists and that smug little mouth. You were a bit too much the rough rocker for my taste. But you sang well, I can't argue with that. I think it could be a bit less mouthy next week.

Jerry

Yes Jerry, Jerry, Jerry, what's not to like. And I think your wife is so cool. And you are beyond everything. Maybe you're a bit beyond The Voice. Is this not entirely your stage, your audience? But the world has seen how good and great you are. By the way, are you also available for adoption? Just temporarily? For women with 39 degrees fever to lean against a bit and listen softly to your sweet-voiced sound? What do I see now? Is this sick good? Two middle fingers. Did I say I liked her? Really? But did I seriously think that? Let's just say I don't see it very clearly. What will she regret this. Shall I end with another tip? One from Ivanka Trump, because there is one thing a little bit nice about Trump, namely his ex Ivanka. Anyway. One of her famous quotes: “Living well, is the best revenge.” Go write that down a hundred times this week, Mrs. Jerry.

Just gone

Guys. I was just gone. Gone in a hallucinatory sleep. Can a sleep be hallucinatory? You know what I mean. In any case, I wake up in heaven. Vi-Cen-Zo. This is the definition of beautiful. And the jury thinks so too. Waylon: “It's a shame you're so ugly.” And now I also read that you donate a lot of money to The Voice pupils.

Pleun

Okay. I'm already crying before you start. That makeup artist who does your makeup by the way, you should book her. For when you go touring through Europe and stuff. Almost as beautiful as your voice. In terms of height, Martijn and you are also a perfect pair. And you and Waylon. You and Waylon! Forgive me, but I'm curious about what went wrong between her parents. They seem like nice people. Both. Woohee. The score. Historic score. You should take a look back at how you cheer, Pleun. You cover your mouth with both hands and it looks so sweet. Very Parisian by the way, because a French woman will do anything to prevent someone from seeing her gums. Although with your teeth that's no problem at all. Okay, I'm rambling. Blame it on the fever.
