Several artists discovered in the program La France has an incredible talent has teamed up for an evening under the sign of humor. If at the beginning “everything was going well” and the public spent “a good evening”, the situation took another turning point when Smain arrived.

“He began to tell us about his life, that he was a child of the DDASS, an orphan, of his adoption in France, that he had been repressed from the Conservatoire … It was very dark, very black and Not very funny especially, “explains a spectator, questioned by Le Parisien.
A woman present in the room then exclaimed: “You lead the atmosphere, Smaïn!”. A remark that strongly displeased the humorist who replied dryly: “You are a fool”. From there, people started leaving the room “sometimes groaning out loud”. The animators of the show intervened to stop its performance.
-He apologizes
Following this incident, the producer of Absolutely Hilarious, Mathieu Wilhelm explained in a press release feeling “very annoyed”. “It is not at all the essence of our show. Make a flop on stage, it happens to everyone. But we cannot insult the public. Smaïn is an artist that we love very much, who has Already produced for us … We do not know why this time, he decided to play something else, without telling us about it before … “.
For his part, Smaïn recognizes his error. “I assume, it's my fault,” he says. “I apologize to the public”. Nevertheless, he denies having been disrespectful to the spectator: “I treated her as a fool, which is not an insult to me, and I invited her to come and debate with me on stage”. Finally, what hurts him most in this case is the reaction of production. “It's insulting for me. And then they knew my show and they were the ones who came to pick me up. I am very disappointed with their attitude,” he concluded.
