How do you become a participant of the program?

Lisette: You are simply called with the question "do you want that? And it's like having guts.

Have you been shocked by rambam?

Then you will be really shocked. However, I had heard in the hallways for a while that it was difficult to find candidates for Slimste Mens . Many women think "I can not do that", or they have to think too much about the dress that is being put on and whether they will participate in heels or flat shoes. I now had something like this: I can not do it for not doing it. I always find it very stupid when women say things like "yes, no, I do not dare."

Fanatic user of the application

Have you always been an observer loyal?

Very regularly I watched, but thanks to a fanatical brother-in-law especially the application of the program has played a lot. The brother-in-law ignited our whole family

If you looked, did you really play with that?

Yes, nice of the sofa

Enne, do you like it?

Hahaha, well … I've always realized that people might not answer well because it's hard to sit there. I've always respected what I've seen. And now I have more, now that I've been there! I found it intense to sit in the studio with the audience while I was speaking English, because I did not have an audience at Good Morning Netherlands of course. And then I also sat in front of Philip Freriks, whom I always liked when Journaal .

Van Rossem gentile

Did you get a little help from the jury?

Yes, it went very well. Maarten van Rossem is not as grumpy as it seems, it was 100%. I think he's actually a very nice man.

Would you recommend to your colleagues to sit in The Smartest Man?

Yes! I liked it so much, but I also played it very seriously. Previously I was super nervous if I stood in front of the tail, but the atmosphere was good. You can also play workout games with an editor, for example, if you have any doubts about whether you know everything about it. How my participation has also expired, I have a lot for my taste. So yes, I can From Slimste Mens recommend everyone.

Have you won?
