The questions continued to come. “What was it like to live for three months without a phone? »was asked of the singer in the Canal+ module. “It was great. Honestly, I loved the experiencereplied the person concerned. I would like to reiterate it all the time because it is good for morale, in the spirit, in the head. We feel better when we don’t see what is constantly being said about us because I admit that now, since I came out, I have become a little addicted to what people say about me. When I go on Insta or Twitter, or anywhere, I see my first name and people giving their opinions on what I do. Sometimes it’s very nice and sometimes less so, frankly, living without a phone is great.”

The fact that I am no longer at home all the time, that some people recognize me in the street, that some people cry when they see me, that too is very impressive. I try to keep my feet on the ground as much as possible, but I think I manage to do that quietly. »
