Vitaaone of the essential figures of French Music, recently gave a boost to his career. With Slimanethey formed an explosive duo, swinging a joint album before going on tour. Together, they created sparks and set the stage on fire. But after several years of stringing together successes, the two artists, who seemed inseparable, decided to take different paths. Everyone now has their own projects, leaving behind a beautiful musical bond.
Vitaa stung to the quick
Slimane, until now a popular figure on the music scene, is going through troubled waters. In fact, some time ago, two former technicians from his last tour filed a complaint against him for harassment and sexual assault. One would have claimed that
the interpreter of “My love“ allegedly pinned him against a wall before throwing him, “Say, you're good“. And here things take an even more embarrassing turn: the prosecution suggests that the artist would have placed his erect penis between his buttocks. Fortunately, Slimane's brother reportedly intervened to stop this situation, stopping the incident before it got worse. This affair shook his public image, and of course attracted media attention.
During his appearance in C à vous on November 20, 2024, Vitaa did not escape questions about this controversy. “It's funny, all my life, I was made a bit of a spokesperson for all my artist friends. At the time, every time I came on set, there was a question for Diam's even though that wasn't the subject. Today, it’s Slimane. At one point it was Stromae […] I say it with a smile but it’s true that I often get asked the question“, she shared, stung.
Vitaa sets the record straight
Vitaa clearly expressed her feelings: “And to be very honest, I absolutely did not come to talk about this for him.“There is no question of her getting involved in Slimane's affairs, especially when it comes to such delicate issues. But the one who started singing at 11 years old did not hesitate to share another aspect of her relationship with the French-speaking male artist at the NRJ Music Awards 2024 after their tour “Versus“.
“We both had a kind of withdrawal after the Versus tour. I took a break, he did another album.” And when Slimane started his promo, he was quick to call the interpreter of “To Flower of you“
to tell him: “It feels weird to be all alone on set.“A duo that had found its balance, and the lack is felt when the two are no longer together on stage.
“It’s not excluded that we go back on stage together”
Vitaa did not hide the little shock she felt after their professional separation. “I started again a year later and it felt so weird. At first, I was even looking for him on stage.“A real lack, like a half that finds itself all alone. But she quickly noticed to what extent their collaboration had marked people.”When he's not there, I ask people to replace him and I realize how the album has entered people's hearts, because they sing all the classics from this album.“
Despite the tensions surrounding Slimane, Vitaa remains open to the idea of working with him again. She even mentioned the possibility of returning to the stage together. “But when we find ourselves on stage, it's magical and
it's not excluded that we go back on stage together.“A real alchemy which, visibly, has not disappeared.
