COFFEE MACHINE CHATTER: EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS MORNING
You think: the world is a bit at a standstill, so between Christmas and New Year's, but we have some juicy details for you. Here they come.
The Meiland family is stopping with their chateau
OMG, we didn't see that coming. Chateau Marillaux is fully booked until the end of 2023, but Erica and Martien still want to stop with their castle. The couple is ready for a new adventure. ‘Chateau Marillaux will still exist in two years, but not with us under that roof. We want something different, but what exactly, we don't know yet. You know what it is, it's really nice, such a chambre d’hôte, but you can never just go downstairs in your duster,’ Martien Meiland tells the Ondernemer. In other words: they want more, bigger, but then not have to cook and clean themselves anymore. And a bit more peace for the two of them and their daughters Montana and Maxime. ‘Working seven days a week, month after month, is great for the revenue, but you also have to think about your health.’
Zac Efron is seriously ill
Zac Efron is participating in a sort of Expedition Robinson, but in Australia. He was on a deserted island, all alone, where he had to survive. He had to survive for the program Killing Zac Efron from streaming service Quibi with only basic equipment and a local guide. Okay, it just depends on what you're in the mood for during the holidays. However, the famous actor has been rushed to the hospital because he is not doing well. In fact: it was very touch-and-go whether he would survive. He was in a life-threatening situation. The 32-year-old actor is said to be suffering from a form of typhus or a similar bacterial infection. He has already been in the hospital for at least a week and how he is doing now is not entirely clear, but he was literally seriously ill. So scary. Get well soon, Zac.
Winter is here
If you're in the mood for cold: good news, because it's going to be shivering in January. A cool wind is coming our way and the nights will remain clear, which means it can freeze quite a bit, especially at night. If this happens for a few days in a row, we might be able to skate on natural ice. During the day in January, it won't get warmer than five degrees and at night we will all dive below zero. Yay. By the way, spring doesn't start until March, in case you were wondering.
The most rude celebrity is...
According to James Cordon, there is only one celebrity who is incredibly antisocial. And he should know, because in his car he meets one world star after another. James made his confession in an interview with Khloé Kardashian. Because who does he not like? It's about a James Bond actor. ‘Pierce Brosnan. I don't think he's a rude guy, he was just rude to me.’ What happened? They were at a U2 concert. ‘Pierce was with a few friends and halfway through the concert they left. We left their spot free for them. They stayed away for quite a while, so my wife and I took their spot. And then, something I've never experienced before, I felt an arm just pushing me away.’ Ouch. That doesn't sound pleasant. A fight with James is the last thing you want, right? We prefer to sing a song with him in the car.
