Some fuss behind the scenes. The diffusion of Worshipthe mini-series dedicated to the success of Loft Storyon Prime Video since October 18, has not gone unnoticed. In this program, subscribers to the streaming platform were able to rediscover the scene now famous in the world of the small screen where Loana and Jean-Edouard Lipa are in the swimming pool. The daily life of Alexia Laroche-Joubert, who was the producer in the early 2000s, is also discussed. Jean-Edouard Lipa is one of the former candidates of the show to have watched the series. In videos posted on TikTok, he castigates her and attacks Alexia Laroche-Joubert in particular: “For all loft owners, he is someone execrable, someone who lacks humanism, someone who failed us.” In Facing Hanouna on C8 this Saturday, November 2, Cyril Hanouna defended the host and producer.
Cyril Hanouna annoyed by Jean-Edouard Lipa: “He’s totally wrong.”
“I am going to respond to Jean-Edouard. I have known Alexia Laroche-Joubert very, very well for years, Alexia is my friend, and I saw her character in the series. Please know that Alexia is much more sympathetic and human than the producer in the series”declared the 50-year-old host, alluding to the role of Isabelle de Rochechouart, a character inspired by the ex-producer and played by comedian Anaïde Rozam. To support his reasoning, he said he was surprised that his friend had agreed to be presented in such an uncomplimentary manner in Worship : “I was surprised that Alexia let go of this character that they portrayed, because it’s the complete opposite, it’s a love interest.” “Jean-Edouard is completely wrong about [elle], he concluded. Spitting in the soup bothers me.”
Jean-Edouard Lipa is acerbic towards Alexia Laroche-Joubert: “She had no respect”
This is not the first time that Jean-Edouard Lipa has settled scores with Alexia Laroche-Joubert.

She had no respect for us.” A scathing statement supported by former participant Kenza Braiga.
