“The problem comes from TF1”: Michou’s rant after his mistake at the NRJ Music Awards

During the last ceremony of NRJ Music Awardsmany personalities were present, including Michou, the YouTuber with more than 10 million subscribers.

The former candidate of Dancing with the starsin a relationship with Elsa Bois, had an important role to play for the event. In fact, he had to give the prize for best French-speaking group of the year.

Unfortunately, the trophy presentation took an unexpected turn. Miguel Mattioli, his real name, made a slight mistake by announcing the tape of the named artists, even though it had just been broadcast a few seconds before. A slightly embarrassing moment for the videographer.

Michou explains himself on the networks

Annoyed by this error, the young man wanted to address his blunder in a recent live organized on his Twitch channel. “I go on stage, I arrive, I'm in 'mode'I'm so happy to be hereI present a trophy to the NMA and the nominees are', and there, Nikos looks at me and says 'We've already said the nominees, but it doesn't matter, we don't blame you'. And I'm in 'Oh okay?' mode, and there was a weird blank moment where I announced the nominees and, in fact, they had already been nominated before…”, he remembered.

If his subscribers tried to reassure him by telling him that there was “nothing serious“, Michou still wanted to emphasize that his “passage did not go unnoticed“.

On m’a mal briefé

According to him, It’s all the production’s fault. “The problem is that I was poorly briefed, it's not me guys! The problem comes from TF1. I'll explain to you: I've never worked with a teleprompter (…) so there was a teleprompter at the NRJ Music Awards but I didn't want to read it.” he explained.

And to continue: “I was briefed: 'Good Michou, your time on stage will be quick, you go up, you can say what you want and then you announce the nominees'. I ask how it goes to announce them, I am told : 'You say: the nominees for the French-speaking group of the year are, then there will be a magneto and then you open the envelope and you say the winner' So I know my role, plus I am confident. I presented DALSI!”

Fortunately, this did not prevent the evening from continuing properly.
