It’s a little joke that still doesn’t work… Last Saturday, Artus was one of the guests on “What a time! » on France 2, in order to present his first film as director, “Un p’tit truc en plus”. While he said that he had decided to stop drinking in order to better manage his anxieties, Léa Salamé responded with a little joke. “Ah you have become boring! You’re no longer anxious but you’re boring. » she said. But the actor did not really appreciate this touch of humor, replying that this reaction was very “French”. “As soon as you stop drinking you become boring. So that’s good, I assure you. If I had said I had stopped doing coke, everyone would have told me it was good,” he replied.
“You have become annoying”: Léa Salamé’s remark to Artus on the set of “Quelle époque” on France 2 goes down badly with spectators, who demand that she apologize (video)
But this fleeting sequence went down very badly with viewers who widely protested on social networks, accusing it of trivializing alcohol consumption. It was also widely commented on on TV sets, pitting those who defended the joke against those who found the journalist’s comments shocking. According to journalist Clément Garin, the discontent would have reached the management of France Télévisions, who would have demanded an apology in the next issue of “What a time! », this Saturday, May 4.
In the meantime, Internet users are not letting up, even to the point of questioning Léa Salamé’s relationship with alcohol. On X, we notably see another of his interviews filmed, this time carried out on France Inter. Last March, she received Gad Elmaleh and the subject of sobriety was also discussed. “How long has it been since you stopped drinking?” » asked Laurent Ruquier’s ex-columnist to the comedian. “2 years and 7 months” he continued. A precise answer which surprised the interviewer. “Oh yeah, shit when you know the day and the number… And suddenly the party isn’t any less beautiful? »
