Nagui knew very early on that he wanted to work in radio and he did everything to ensure that nothing disrupted his career, even if it meant lying to avoid doing his military service. Explanations.
Nagui is now enjoying success on both radio and television. Every lunchtime, he hosts The original soundtrack on France Inter and in the evening, it’s on the show Don’t forget the lyrics that he makes viewers sing. A few days ago, the host revealed the brand new set of the program, on the occasion of the 7000th issue. In this karaoke game, the maestros compete on French songs and they have more and more knowledge. Some even make Masters competition their job. It was in the 70s that Nagui made his radio debut by hosting a program on a pirate radio station. When he was an adult, he was called up by the army to carry out his military service. The host then multiplied the stratagems to avoid this year of break.
Nagui, “a scam”
Nagui managed to be declared unfit to perform his military service. “You’re a scam!”launches Déborah Grunwald on France Bleu, revealing Nagui’s stratagems to avoid joining the army. A doctor had given him a vial to induce “huge buttons” and patches on the skin, while he had made a false prescription detailing a prescription for these skin problems. “We even had a prescription yellowed to show that it was old and that I had had it for 8 years. I was ready for anything. It wasn’t so much my anti-militarist side, but simply luck that made you smiles”explains Nagui.
“I was ready for anything,” confides Nagui on his decision not to join the army
“I found work at Radio France Côte d’Azur and having this job, you receive a letter saying: ‘you are no longer at university, you have no more studies, so now you come to do a year, even a year and a half of army’ “recalls Nagui, before adding: “It was impossible, becausewe all know that the day we stop being on the microphonewe are forgotten and I was 21 years old. If I stopped, I was dead, so joining the army was out of the question. I was ready for anything”. A decision, which allowed Nagui to have a long career.
