“All that is not part of me, I am not a boy like that” assures the singer, visibly moved. “Since my message of May 10, I haven’t given you any news because I had to take care of myself and think about what had happened. To understand how I got to this point. And above all, take the right decisions for the future.”

Kendji Girac comes out of silence: “I know all the pain I could have caused you”

“As you know, I almost lost my life, the love of my family, my public, my friends. My daughter almost lost her father. I don’t know what happened,” says the singer. “I want to go back to being the boy I was, that I am deep down.” Kendji Girac wants to “learn from his mistakes”, because “nothing is fixed in life”.

“I want to ask for forgiveness, apologize to those I hurt, to whom I caused pain, I never wanted that. My goal is to make people happy […] God gave me this second chance, it’s not for nothing,” he says.

According to analyses, Kendji Girac was heavily alcoholic, at more than 2.5 g per liter of blood, and had consumed cocaine during an evening and a night of partying, during which he notably went to the casino with friends.

Many brands of support

“All that is behind me,” finally declared the artist, sending his thanks to his family and professional entourage, as well as to his audience. “Thank you for being so kind to me, for not judging me,” he added, assuring that he would do “everything to be up to the task”.

In the comments, many public figures showed their support for the singer. Matt Pokora wrote “Come on my Kendji, we’re waiting for you. Take your time. Love.” Vianney also commented “Miracles bear fruit, so the rest will be wonderful. We know who you are, we love you and we’re waiting for you -
