For several months, Slimane has been in turmoil. Indeed, the singer is accused of sexual harassment and assault on the part of several of his technicians. The 35-year-old artist is said to have attacked one of them on the night of December 17 to 18, 2023 after a concert in St-Etienne. In the complaint filed, the complainant indicates that he was dancing when Slimane approached him.
Slimane, accused of sexual assault and harassment
And according to him, Vitaa's best friend had these words: “Say, you’re good.” To which the technician would have replied: “I’m good, but only on Sunday.” But the artist then replied: “I don’t care, it’s Saturday night”. Following this exchange, Slimane would have
“then placed his erect penis between his buttocks and prepared to put his hand on the technician’s penis”reveal our colleagues from
Parisian.
While witnesses filmed the scene, the singer's brother ordered them to “delete all videos of what happened”. Another of the singer's technicians filed a complaint for harassment: “Slimane explains to him that he wants to have sex with him. His interlocutor replies that he is not interested, that he is heterosexual and married, but the singer insists and takes him to his dressing room”, wrote our colleagues from
Parisian.
Slimane removed from The Voice Kids
The latter's lawyer then clarified: “My client is very uncomfortable, he repeats that he is not interested, the artist insists and asks him if other members of the team would be interested. My client leaves the lodge in a hurry and joins the tour bus”. His client then allegedly received numerous messages of a sexual nature. Since then, Slimane has remained silent.
While The Voice will soon return to TF1 with this year, with Florent Pagny, Vianney, Patricia Kaas and even Zaz who will sit on the red armchairs, the first channel has made a radical decision regarding The
Voice Kids. This December 30, media journalist Clément Garin made revelations on his X account, formerly Twitter, and announced upcoming changes for the show dedicated to children.
The singer replaced by Julien Doré in The Voice Kids?
Indeed, the filming of this new season of The Voice
Kids is scheduled for spring 2025 for broadcast scheduled for next September. Patrick Fiori and Lara Fabian should come back, Claudio Capéo and Slimane will not be present for this new season. Information which would undermine the career of the singer who had participated in
The Voice and who became known thanks to the program.
If for the moment we do not know the names of the replacements, the names of certain personalities are already making noise:
Jenifer, Kendji Girac, Louis Bertignac or even Garou and Julien Doré. This is a good
bad news for Slimane who thus sees his legal problems tainting his career and his television projects. For the moment, the singer has not reacted to this information.
