For three weeks, singer Slimane has been in turmoil. The winner of The Voice in 2016 is targeted by two complaints for sexual assault and sexual harassment by two technicians working on his Cupid Tour.
His very close friend, the singer Vitaa, with whom he collaborated between 2019 and 2021 on the VersuS project, was the guest of C to you this Wednesday, November 20 to discuss the release of his documentary Friday on TMC. Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine obviously questioned her about this affair…
Vitaa “did not come to speak” in place of Slimane
Vitaa speaks for the first time but does not wish to say much more. “Un other artist inseparable from your journey, it's Slimane” then launches the presenter of the France 5 talk show. She evokes the singer's performance on Mon Amour at the NMAs and his emotion “without making the slightest comment on these affairs in progress. (…) Is it difficult to pretend to be fine when everything is going wrong?”
The singer, who wishes to step back and write for others, must certainly have expected the subject to be broachedthen replied: “It’s funny, all my life I have been put in the role of spokesperson for all my artist friends. At the time, every time I came on set, there was a question about Diam's even though that wasn't the subject. Today, it's Slimane.” she began.
Before making it clear that she had nothing to say about it. “To be very, very honest, I absolutely did not come to talk about this for him.. On the other hand, if you wonder about my relationship with Slimane, I really invite you to watch the documentary. He’s really very present and I talk about that in depth. So everything is said.” concluded Vitaa, who does not let go. A few days after the revelations of the affair, she was by his side at the NRJ Music Awards in Cannes.
