In full promotion of his new studio album called +1, whose release is scheduled for this Friday, November 22, 2024, Hatik continues the interviews.
This Thursday, he also gave an interview to our colleagues at the magazine Gala, the opportunity for him to talk about his return to the stage, but also to discuss his film career.
Hatik saved by Amel Bent
It was in 2020, two years after his official debut in music, that Hatik took his first steps as an actor. Main role in the series Valid, directed by Franck Gastambide, his career took a major turning point. A difficult period that he was able to get through thanks to the support of Amel Bent.
“I wasn't looking for that and I withdrew into myself. In private and in public where, embarrassed, I showed a not very friendly face. I even had my groceries delivered so as not to go out, it was too much for me!“, he confided before adding that the interpreter of My philosophy had given him valuable advice to accept this “new normal“. “She added that, otherwise, I would struggle all my life like a hamster that refuses to turn in its wheel and, ultimately, exhaust myself in vain.“
What his wife Leïla refuses at all costs
Although Hatik has finally come to terms with his notoriety, his wife Leïla still struggles to manage certain aspects of her husband's job. In the columns of Gala, she also admitted to having never managed to watch Valid : “I don't need that to know its value. And if I like him as an actor, there's no question of him spending his life being naked or in bed with other girls!“
For his part, Clément Penhoat, his real name, is not the type to accept everything. “I refuse lots of roles“, he also explained.
And to conclude: “With my stupid face (Hatik is of Guyanese origin, editor's note), I am too often offered the characters of an Arab from the neighborhood who sells shit. Not for me. There is enough wealth to tell and show in our society so as not to draw poor stories from it..” A clear opinion!
