After field journalism, the great war reporter Anne Nivat has added a string to her bow since the start of the school year every Friday and Saturday as co-presenter on LCI, where she also appears on Darius Rochebin's show on Sundays.
Jean-Jacques Bourdin: his criticism of his wife's first steps on TV
Guest of Mélanie Taravant in C Media on France 5 this Sunday, November 26, the journalist didn't let anything slip. While the host spoke of her arrival “on TV sets“in two different programs, Anne Nivat corrected it: “No, but, first of all, it's not the same thing. (…) On Sunday evening, at Darius's, I am invited. So, Mélanie, it will not have escaped your notice that I wear several hats. And that's what I like, because all women know what it's like to wear several hats“. Mélanie Taravant then saw fit to broadcast an extract from the interview with her husband Jean-Jacques Bourdin on the show Buzz TV of TV Magazinewhere the host of Sud Radio analyzes his wife's first performances: “I was amazed by its premiere, frankly. And she still needs to improve, she has a few small points to improve, we discussed it a lot together. But if she's herself, if she lets herself go… She's got a strong personality, a lot of skills, she's going to be great. I'm telling you straight away: if she manages to let herself go, you'll see that we'll talk about her again as a presenter“.
Anne Nivat dots the “i”s in C Media
This did not please the new face of LCI, who did not wish to answer Mélanie Taravant's question, namely: “Ready to let go?“. In all honesty, Anne Nivat preferred to make things clear about the place she gives to her relationship in her work: “No but, uh, Mélanie… It's very nice that you sound like a husband, but if you want, I think that in the 21st century today – and it's not you on the public service who will tell me the opposite – we women no longer need to be defined by what our husbands say about us“. The presenter of C Mediavery surprised, justified herself: “Oh no, of course, on the other hand we can have discussions to improve“. But his guest did not want to mention these points of improvement mentioned by his companion: “I emphasize it anyway, there you go. I am the wife of Jean-Jacques Bourdin, of course, and everyone knows it, but I am also Anne Nivat. I insist!“Mélanie Taravant was then able to count on one of her columnists to erase the uneasiness.”It is rather Jean-Jacques Bourdin who is your husband“, which relaxed the atmosphere.”Thank you for saying that, you are right!“, exclaimed Anne Nivat, all smiles.
