The situation could have degenerated. Fortunately, security was able to intervene in time and avoid a possible tragedy. This Tuesday, January 21, 2025, around 8 p.m., Cyril Hanouna and his columnists had a huge scare when an individual present in the public appeared on the set of TPMP.
“Cyril I love you”he said before members of security intervened and avoided a confrontation with the presenter, determined to fight it out in the event that he had to defend himself with his fists.
The explanations of the man who burst onto the set of “TPMP”
Mute until now, the man who burst onto the set of TPMP finally spoke via his Instagram account. Benjamin Gaucher, who presents himself under the pseudonym benjitigeroffwanted to explain his actions and apologize.
“There was too much crowd in front of me so I had to jump. I realize that by jumping, I scared everyone and that wasn't my goal.“first announced the young man who describes himself as “a public figure, producer and presenter”.
As noted by our colleagues from TV Maghe has already made a public appearance before interrupting TPMP. He actually made an appearance on Skyrock in 2022 to give advice on sports betting.
Following his intervention, the “attacker” wanted to correct certain information circulating about him. In particular on his possible wish to attack Cyril Hanouna. “I read that I threw myself at Cyril”he initially lamented before specifying: “I wasn't close to Cyril. Cyril was a little far away and I waited for him to move. I wouldn't have hurt anyone”.
-He did not want to “do any harm” to Cyril Hanouna
While some believe that this sequence would have been orchestrated by the presenter of TPMPBenjamin Gaucher assures the opposite. “Everything was real. There was no staging. Cyril Hanouna didn't orchestrate this. He didn't ask me to do this. It shouldn't have happened like that, basically”he assured.
In reality, Cyril Hanouna's “attacker” wanted to express his admiration for the host. But also promote a fight with an influencer. “I also wanted to talk about the fight with Mounir Moons because I had to give a date. It was important to me to talk about it on your show because I know that you are a person who gives freedom of expression and lets people talk”he confided.
In conclusion, the young man promises never having considered “to do harm” to the facilitator, “nor to Kelly Vedovelli for that matter”.
