Faustine Bollaert: “Not even in a dream!”
But let it be said, we must not count on Faustine Bollaert. Invited this June 29 in We’re doing TV again on RTL, the host of France Télévisions – who also succeeds Flavie Flament on RTL – assured that she did not intend to set foot again in the program hosted by Olivier Minne. “Never. I’ve been asked for years, and every year I say, ‘Not even in my dreams would I do that to myself again!’” she assured.
As a reminder, she participated in the show for the first time in 2008, then in the spin-off program Boyard Land, in 2020. This second participation had also provoked mockery from his children.Even they tell me: ‘Don’t do that mom, don’t do that! It was such a shame!’ I have very bad memories of it!” she said.
