While he is in the middle of the turmoil, Slimane lets out a big truth about Florent Pagny and does not mince his words.
For a while now, Slimane has been going through a very complicated period in his personal and professional life. The singer is in fact the target of accusations of sexual harassment from a technician against him. A new complaint has also been filed for similar facts. This is now the subject of an investigation for
“sexual assault and attempted sexual assault”. A real descent into hell for the artist who, recently, revealed his truths about Florent Pagny… Who has been none other than his mentor for many years.
Slimane cash about Florent Pagny
Recently invited on M Radio, Slimane did not hesitate to confide without any filter when it came to talking about his link with Florent Pagny. Remember that the latter was his former coach in The Voice. And according to his words, Azucena's companion is much more than a mentor in his eyes. He indeed considers him a member of his family. “He’s someone who turned my life upside down, who changed everything”he began by declaring. Pagny, whom he respects and admires, is thus a source of inspiration, especially since he had a considerable impact on his career.
Pagny, more than a mentor for Slimane
Slimane did not stop there. Still on the set of M Radio, the one Vitaa considers a brother made another juicy revelation… Suggesting that fans can hope a possible artistic collaboration with Florent Pagny. “I know he’s there, he knows I’m there. We write to each other, we might even collaborate together in the near future,” he said, bluntly. Although we already know it, Slimane finished, affirming that the interpreter of Knowing how to love is a real source of inspiration for him. “I really take him as an example in this profession, he taught me a lot”he added. A tribute that will certainly delight the person concerned.
“This one has a special taste”
Despite this dark period he is going through, Slimane did not let it taint his very emotional performance at the NRJ Music Awards on November 1. He also won the French-speaking male artist of the year award. A real whirlwind of emotions for the artist who burst into tears during his speech on stage. “I wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart. This one has a special taste. Thank you, thank you, thank you for being there”he confided, his eyes shining. The latter, moved, did not fail to address a few words to his daughter: “Daughter, when you grow up, I really hope you will be proud of your daddy, I love you. Mom and dad, I love you.”
