New elements in the Slimane affair. On October 29, Le Parisien revealed that the singer Slimane was the target of a complaint, from a former technician on his tour, for sexual harassment. The events allegedly took place in December 2023 after a concert in Saint-Etienne.

Five days after his presence at the NRJ Awards where Slimane won the trophy for French-speaking male artist of the yearthe chronicler of Don't touch my postGilles Verdez has made new revelations.

Slimane: those around him speak out

This Wednesday, November 6, Cyril Hanouna's comrade returned to the affair. Until now, we knew nothing about the technician and what became of him after leaving the Cupidon Tour. “We can reveal that he is a sound engineer and he didn't stop working at all. He continues to work (…) there is no longer any contact of any form whatsoever between Slimane and this technician” initially revealed Gilles Verdez.

Before continuing: “What we can also say is that the complaint for sexual harassment targets text messages, 30 or 40, videos and I was told about a photo that Slimane allegedly sent to the technician while he was on the bus.” Gilles Verdez continued by talking about the evening. “We have confirmation and everyone recognizes it, including those around Slimane, that the evening was extremely drunk. There is a total loss of control on the part of all the protagonists” he said.

“The best therapy”

According to Cyril Hanouna's columnist, who tried to contact the plaintiff's lawyer who did not respond to requests, spoke with Slimane's entourage who affirms that it is impossible that Slimane took the technician to his dressing room. “I am assured that it is impossible that Slimane forcibly took the technician to his dressing roomhe is incapable of doing that. They also say that he is less physically strong than the technician.”

On the judicial level, the Saint-Etienne prosecutor is still waiting for information from the complainant. Yesterday, they still had nothing. Subsequently, Gilles Verdez also gave news of the winner of The Voice indicating that on a personal level: “He is not doing well at all, he is obviously very affected” reveals the columnist.

On a professional level, Slimane is maintaining the three concerts taking place this weekend, notably in and Orléans. “For him, forging the bond with his audience, it is the best therapy” concluded Gilles Verdez.
