The latter indicated to AFP on Tuesday that he was “waiting for evidence, in the form of various recordings, which this lawyer announced that he had and must send (to him)”, to decide on the possible opening of a preliminary investigation.
Slimane, 35, is on tour for his “Cupid tour”. In May, he took fourth place in Eurovision with his song “Mon amour”.
Revealed in The Voice on TF1 which he won in 2016, he was at the top, during his duet with the singer Vitaa, in the album sales ranking in France in 2020 with “Versus”.
