Rise and shine: for these cuties, 2020 was indeed a great year

Sometimes you go hard. So hard that even a pandemic can't stop you. Who could we not get around careerwise in 2020? Who made us happy? Who deserves horns and cake + a hard digital kick in the ass? I know…
Rianne Meijer
I don't think there is any. Single. Dutch. Instagrammer. So explosively grown as Rianne. In February 2020 (a month before lockdown) she had half a million followers and now? 1.3 million clean on the hook. Being at home turned out to be a brilliant match for making creative videos. Rianne made us all laugh a little again by simply being: herself. Love it.
Miljuschka Witzenhausen
Oh, if I wish it for anyone. Dear Miljus. For years good for everything and everyone and finally it seems the patience is paying off. A smashing successful food website, hundreds of thousands of followers who praise her for her down-to-earthness. Participation in Who is the Mole, the #real photo documentary on Videoland, soon a clothing line of her own, should I keep going? This girl is on fire.
Bram Krikke
That dry dude with the authentic mustache. You can't get around it. Just really can't, you know. In April 2020, Bram broke the national record for the most liked photo on Instagram. He made the switch from SLAM! to QMusic and of course: the Silver Radio Star for Best Radio Presenter of the year. I think Q is good for Joejoe so still BRILLIANT.
Maan de Steenwinkel
Where one door closes (hi heartbreak) a window opens again. Maan hasn't changed, Maan has finally become herself. Her debut album Onverstaanbaar was released on January 31, 2020, and let's be honest that was an instant hit. She Cries but She Laughs was more vulnerable than ever, of course, that Edison followed not long after.
Tim Hoffman
Presenter, journalist, poet, columnist, @debroervanroos has been it for a while, and this year has an extra golden edge. Hello October. Winning the Golden Televizier Star for best presenter, the best online video series for #BOOS and the Golden Televizier Ring for Over Mijn Lijk. Nice going friend.
Tabitha Foen-A-Foe
Sorry, but I don't feel sorry, Tabitha must have thought. Fine that 2020 is massively a shitty year, but NOT for me #see you later. A debut album, breakthrough success in Beste Zangers and a little sprout on the way. HELLO WITH ME!
Congratulations dear people. You rocked the shit out of this pandemic. It must be said.
