• Patty was also interviewed on De Telegraaf's web channel. Click here to watch the interview. She mentioned Luv'. "I was part of a girl group in which there were two girls against another girl. I wish I was part of the Dolly Dots because it was easier. Marga acted as if she was the boss of Luv' because she trademarked the group's name," Patty told. Moreover, the SBS6 star confirmed the fact that when she signed a 4-year contract with Talpa TV last year, John de Mol asked her not to gain weight. 

• This afternoon, the larger than life entertainer gave an interview on MAX/NPO 1's talk show "Tijd Voor Max".
