Michel Blanc’s partner makes a very specific request
Like Michel Blanc, a cheerful man who made millions and millions of French people laugh. But this time, many of his friends won’t have the heart to laugh. Indeed, the actor’s death was so brutal, that his loved ones are having a hard time getting over it.
Biographer Jean-Pierre Lavoignat, who recently worked with the Splendid gang, returned to his last exchange with the actor: “It’s a double shock, It’s infinitely sad and it’s like losing a friend (…) I’ve been spending my time with them on the phone for three months, really. So it’s very disturbing to think that I spoke to him the day before yesterday and that he was fine. He gave the final validations of the book”he indicated on the set of C à vous.
