Who is Marijne van der Vlugt?
Marijne van der Vlugt, is a Dutch musician, former model and MTV Europe VJ. She is the daughter of Dutch actor Bram van der Vlugt.
Marijne started her career as a VJ for MTV Europe Central from London in the early 1990s and hosted such shows as Alternative Nation, and the fashion show The Pulse with Swatch. She also often did the voiceovers for the night-time videos and her voice was used in some MTV adverts.
After MTV Central decided to close down pan-European broadcasting from London in 1997, MTV Network Productions went regional. MTV began offering channels for individual countries, like MTV Italy, MTV Germany, MTV France, MTV Sweden and MTV Russia. Marijne van der Vlugt's career as an MTV presenter ended at that point.
At the same time, Marijne was the lead singer of alternative band Salad, a UK based band that was active from 1992 to 1998. Salad made some music videos, and also toured Europe. However, the band never reached a wider audience. Salad were considered by many alternative listeners as a "MTV push thing", or just as a "side project" for Marijne van der Vlugt.
