He is on tour throughout France for his one-man show.Stand alone“. And Philippe Lellouche was the guest of RTL, this November 25, 2024. Received by Amandine Bégot and Thomas Sotto, he explained why he is campaigning for the return of slow music, in his show.
On the air, Gilles Lellouche's brother admitted: “I'm talking about the disappearance of slow songs which saddens me. It's a real fightno but really. There are some, it's ecology, you see, feminism… For me, it's slow songs”.
Why is slow music feminist?
And add the reason for this commitment: “At the time, the girl had three opportunities to say no to us”. Because Amandine Bégot saw in this sketch a “reflection on consentPhilippe Lellouche confirmed: “This is exactly what I'm saying: If I were a feminist, I would make slow dancing compulsory.”
A position that is completely relevant today, due to the wave of Me Too trials in progress. And Philippe Lellouche denounces in fact: “But no, but because today, there are guys, we can see it clearly, who don't I don't understand what that means, no, it's dramatic.”.
It thus ensures: “A guy who has experienced slow music, he knows what it means, no. You see, so there is a political act“. And to add, very seriously: “but I think so.”
Thomas Sotto and Philippe Lellouche, same fight!
In detail, the 58-year-old Franco-Israeli actor specifies what these three key moments are. He recounts in order: “When you invite her to dance”, this is the first moment when a man can experience a refusal.
Then he continues: “afterwards when she dances, you ask her to tighten you up, she can push you away, like I don’t want to, it’s just the dancing that interests me, it was weird by the way”. Finally, he finishes: “And third thing, when it was time to kiss her, she could say no to you.”.
He finally concluded: “There were three possibilities of no, with one and the same girl”. And Thomas Sotto jokes in turnabout this time that he also knew: “It’s true that they told me no three times each time.”
