This Wednesday, November 20, 2024, Vitaa was invited to the set of C to you to promote his unreleased documentary
Vitaa, my name is Charlottebroadcast Friday November 22 on TMC. If the objective was to talk about his career, a question from Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine about Slimane suddenly changed the atmosphere. At the same time, the 41-year-old artist recently opened up about her obsession with her image on television, which she herself describes as “psychopathic”. A look back at two facets of a fascinating personality.
Vitaa uncomfortable with a question about Slimane
During his appearance on the show C to youVitaa thought she would talk about her journey and her upcoming documentary. But host Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine addressed a delicate subject: the accusations of harassment and sexual assault made against Slimane, a close friend of Vitaa. “We must obviously respect the presumption of innocence, but is it difficult to pretend to be okay when everything is going wrong?“she said, plunging the singer into embarrassment.
Visibly annoyed, Vitaa responded with a certain coldness:
“It's funny, all my life, I've been made a bit of a spokesperson for all my artist friends… Today, it's Slimane. At one point, it was Stromae.” Attempting to close the subject, the latter stated: “I absolutely did not come to talk about this for him.“
A clear and firm intervention from Slimane's friend, which left the host without a response.
Between tensions and revelations
Despite the tensions that arose on the set of C to youVitaa did not let herself be discouraged. Far from being content with a succinct defense, the singer invited Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine and viewers to discover her documentary to find out more about her relationship with Slimane.
“If you are wondering about my relationship with Slimane,
I invite you to watch the documentary… everything is said“she insisted.
Broadcast this Friday on TMC, this documentary promises an exclusive immersion in Vitaa's life and career. Between his relationship with Slimane, his family life and his professional career, the artist, who recently opened up about his weight, opens up as he rarely does.
Vitaa: a perfectionist to the point of obsession
In October 2023, Vitaa spoke on RTL in
We're doing TV againrevealing another aspect of his personality: his obsession with controlling his image. “When we see ourselves painting in shows all day… it’s super hard”she confided in particular. Particularly attentive to the light and her positioning in front of the cameras, the singer recognizes: “I am a psychopath. Before coming on a show, I almost always watch how it's filmed. If I see that it’s my bad profile, it’s a scandal.”she said.
This perfectionism, although effective, sometimes led to disagreements with film crews. “I once had a disagreement with a team because they didn't want to make changes.. So the whole show, I'm frustrated. I know I won't like it”admitted the mother of three children. A requirement which reflects his constant concern to control his public image. Despite the controversies and its own demands, Vitaa continues to fascinate. Whether she defends herself when faced with delicate questions or reveals her almost extreme perfectionism, she remains an essential figure on the French music scene.
