SVT’s hit program “Married at First Sight” premieres on April 10, when the ninth season begins.
Earlier this week, SVT published this year’s participants, something Nyheter24 previously wrote about.
Anitha Clemence criticizes the program
One who is now criticizing the TV show is the podcaster and former caster Anitha Clemencewho believes this year’s contestants are a middle-class white gang with a Christian stylist.
In an interview with SVT she develops her thoughts.
– SVT’s mission is to find a cross-section and represent all parts of the country, they really haven’t succeeded in that, she says.
She also says that it is the responsibility of the caster to look for the right types of people to participate in the program, so that it does not become too homogenous.
– I assume that the participants write in their application what they are looking for. If they’re just looking for a white, streamlined person who’s just like them, that’s pretty scary.
On her Instagram she writes:
“I’m back from Thailand – or was it Gothenburg? GVFÖ is back in the box and we overanalyze this white middle-class gang with a Christian stylist and dreams of marrying a fairytale creature with an animal aura… What does Babben Larsson have to do with going to the toilet? How is it going with the challenge “Love men into the tile” and how do we manage to reverse generations of brainwashing? Listen up and kick back!”
