Michèle Laroque has strong sympathy among the general public. Whether for his shows with
Pierre Palmade or his popular cinema comedies. Blonde, smiling, cheerful… A good friend, that is. We could notably see it in You shouldn't!with Gérard Jugnot, The Closetwith Daniel Auteuilor even
The House of Happinesswith Dany Boon. However, Michèle Laroque, despite all her positive energy, hides a dark side made up of addiction. In Thierry Ardisson, she evokes adultery as a reason for happiness…
Michèle Laroque: good friend of French cinema
Michèle Laroque debuts in The Classentertainment show on France 3, where she notably meets
Jean-Marie Bigard et Pierre Palmade. The year is 1988. No pun intended, she's in school. And, ten years later, she found Palmade on the stage. They play a fictional couple in the theater under the tutelage of Muriel Robin.
In the cinema, she specializes in popular comedies where she generally plays nice – or even stupid – bourgeois people. She embodies the model of the perfect wife, a trophy of the flesh and also an object of fantasies. In 2014, she dared, something rare enough to be underlined, to pour into the
drama with the TV movie A son which earned him an interpretation prize.
The actress' addictions to this powerful drug
But, behind the laughter, Michèle Laroque hides a dark side of herself. In 2019, in the show Une Ambition Intimate, on M6, she spoke frankly about her addiction to opium. A
infernal spiral in which the actress fell because of bad company. A dark period that still haunts her today…
She also fought, at a young age, against an addiction to alcohol. She says: “I was in stupid gangs, parties with violent guys […] I had a difficult adolescence.” Today, Michèle Laroque seems to regret this difficult period during which she clashed greatly with her parents.
Michèle Laroque, in favor of her husband's adultery
In 2001, on the set of Everyone is talking about itpresented by Thierry ArdissonMichèle Laroque plays the game of the concept interview. Here she must respond to everything she might do out of love for her man: surgerychange of religionaccept theadultery
of his beloved…
Because she recognizes that she would be ready to accept her husband's adultery for his (him) well-being.
“So he would have any shortcomings with me?” asks the actress. “It's true that I want him to be happy. But I don't really need to know that…”, affirms Michèle Laroque frankly to Thierry Ardisson. She's definitely a good friend!
