‘How is Anouk in real life?’
The song not only struck a chord with Pascale, all four coaches were also impressed and turned their seats. In the end Pascale opted for coach Anouk. Petra is very curious: ‘What is Anouk like in real life? Because she is portrayed a bit ‘bitchy’ sometimes.’ Pascale laughs: ‘No, Anouk is super, super sweet in real life.’ She also believes that she can learn a lot from Anouk: ‘That woman has so much experience and has gone through so much. That’s why I chose her.’
