Smaïn performed on Friday January 24 on the stage of the Longjumeau theater (Essonne) during the show “Absolutely Hilarious”.
Friday January 24, comedian Smaïn performed on the stage of Longjumeau (Essonne) during the show “Absolutely Hilarious”. Several artists discovered in the show La France a un incredible talent joined forces for an evening of humor. If at the beginning “everything was going well” and the public was having “a good evening”, the situation took another turn when Smain arrived. The latter delivered a performance taken from his show Smaïn deconne finely.
“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 turned away from the conservatory… It was very dark, very dark and not very funny above all,” explains a spectator, interviewed by Le Parisien.
A woman present in the room then exclaimed: “You’re ruining the atmosphere, Smaïn!” A remark which greatly displeased the comedian who replied dryly: “You are an imbecile”. From there, people began to leave the room “sometimes moaning out loud.” The hosts of the show intervened to stop his performance.
He apologizes
-Following this incident, the producer of Absolutely Hilarious, Mathieu Wilhelm explained in a press release that he felt “very bothered”. “That’s not at all the essence of our show. Failing on stage happens to everyone. But we can’t insult the audience. Smaïn is an artist that we love very much, who has already produced for us… We don’t know why this time, he decided to play something else, without telling us before…”.
For his part, Smaïn recognizes his mistake. “I accept, it’s my fault,” he confides. “I apologize to the public.” However, he denies having been disrespectful towards the spectator: “I called her an imbecile, which is not an insult in my eyes, and I invited her to come and debate with me on stage”. Ultimately, what hurts him the most in this affair is the reaction of production. “It’s insulting to me. And then they knew my show and they were the ones who came to get me. I am very disappointed with their attitude,” he concluded.
