An emblematic figure of the French comedy scene for several decades, Jamel Debbouze has captivated audiences through his stage performances, his television series and his films. The comedian also mentored a new generation of comedians within the Jamel Comedy Club. He is preparing to go on tour to the Zénith de France with various actors from his troupe. As part of the promotion of this highly anticipated tour, Jamel Debbouze was the guest of the show 8:30 p.m. Sundayhosted by Laurent Delahousse, on Sunday November 24, 2024, on France 2. True to form, the actor entertained viewers by improvising a few live segments. At the start of the interview, the weekend news anchor revisited the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
As a reminder, this event was officially launched with the broadcast of a video where Jamel Debbouze held the Olympic flame at the Stade de France. He then handed the torch to the living legend of French football, Zinédine Zidane. It was an emotional moment for the comedian, who is a big fan of the former Real Madrid player and manager. “It was an extraordinary moment. Even I was surprised. And to have the chance to stand in front of ‘Zizou Christ'”, declared Jamel Debbouze remembering this moment, which he had to keep secret from those close to him before it is broadcast on July 26, 2024. “I agree, he is a living god,” added Laurent Delahousse in reference to Zinédine Zidane. Later, Jamel Debbouze revealed his desire to give his daughter Lila a name inspired by the former footballer.
