“Good for his face”

During an interview given to M6 this Friday, December 13, Michel Sardou once again demonstrated his frankness. The singer did not hesitate to give his opinion on the political situation, always with his punchy lines.

He doesn't speak wooden language. At the age of 77, Michel Sardou is not afraid to say what he thinks in front of the M6 ​​cameras. During an interview broadcast this Friday, December 13 in the show 12.45the singer based in the South did not hesitate to frankly give his opinion on the current political situation. He confides to Nathalie Renoux: “France today… I preferred mine!”. Greatly nostalgic, the artist and grandfather of six children, declares: “As always, we always prefer our youth.“Philosopher, he adds:”When we say 'it was better before', that's bullshit. Because in fact, it was our youth that was better before.“

And yet, it's not just a matter of melancholy. “There, I'm a little lost”, continues Michel Sardou, visibly taken aback by the political news. Teasingly, he mentions a “messy side“, in which he finds a certain charm. Dissolution? “Finally, it's good for his face“, says the singer, who does not seem entirely seduced by the management of the country by President Emmanuel Macron. And his anger does not date from yesterday. In June, already, after the dissolution of the National Assembly, he called on political figures to “stop pissing off the French!” Nostalgic, but not too much, Michel Sardou seems far from the time when he shared his vacations with Brigitte Macron.
