THIS MESSAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS – Dax Hovius from Kapelle won the ninth edition of The Voice Kids on Friday evening. All his friends were waiting for him when they got home. “That was really very sweet,” he tells NU.nl.
With the numbers Nice to meet ya by Niall Horan and What I like about you of The Romantics, 15-year-old Hovius won the most votes from the viewers in the final on RTL 4.
Due to the corona measures, the finalists could not get together in a live show, so the moment of the presentation in the talk show Beau organized.
Did you sleep a little?
“No. After the presentation at Beau we celebrated it all backstage. I still couldn’t believe I won. We got home around two o’clock and I thought I was just going to bed, but when we hit the street everything was decorated and all my friends were waiting for me. Really very sweet. “
“We talked and celebrated until half past three. I went to sleep at five and woke up at ten.”
Is there a plan ready for the coming months?
“Normally you would say: let those performances come. But unfortunately that is not possible now, that is quite annoying. We have to wait and see how the corona measures will develop, maybe I can do a few live streams. But that is not yet known. There are still some nice things ahead of you anyway. “
Are there any plans to release a single?
“We haven’t talked about that yet. People have reported, but no one really stands out yet. We take it easy and don’t decide too quickly.”
Which artists do you see as an example?
“Those are musicians who are at Pinkpop and Concert at Sea. It is my dream to be on such a stage. In the end I want to earn my living by playing. I think that is the coolest thing there is.”
What will you do with that scholarship of 25,000 euros?
“I can’t really do much with it now. I am in the third grade and I want to finish my mavo. Maybe I can study at the Herman Brood Academy afterwards or maybe I will do the HAVO for Music and Dance first. seek good training. “
“I am only fifteen and it is now very hectic in my life. It is not realistic to say now: I am going for it. I want to build it up quietly. My name is now known to many people, that I have already succeeded. I want to seize a lot of opportunities, but in my own way. “
