Laurent Gerra has always been a comedian with strong ideas. Indeed, he has never had his tongue in his pocket and has always shown a certain skepticism towards new generations. The imitator therefore has for many years caricatured all the time and it doesn't seem to be stopping any time soon. He was thus invited on RTL, and the comedian has lost none of his legendary verve and frankness.
Laurent Gerra, in the space of a few minutes of interview, dressed Aya Nakamura, the Olympics and Paris for the winter. Very critical of of the Olympic Games and especially the opening ceremonythe imitator took out the sulphator. He also gave his feelings about Paris, a city that he hates to the highest degree, but to which he is obliged to come for professional reasons.
Laurent Gerra tackles the Olympic Games ceremony
Currently showing his one-man show, Laurent Gerra sits down at the table. The famous imitator was therefore the guest of We're doing TV again on RTL. Asked about his feelings around the Olympic Games, he did not mince his words. As usual, he indeed showed himself very harsh towards the organizers and the show that was proposed. Always very mocking of new cultures, he openly attacked Aya Nakamura.
“Everything I make fun of in my show was brought together in this ceremony. We had everything. Three hours with people on barges saying hello, with rappers and Aya Nakamura. The thing had to be faded! Everyone was proud to be French and I was laughing until I cried. I said to myself, it's not possible that we give an image like that of France. I want to be progressive, but not with ridiculous things anyway”.
His aversion to Paris
Another subject of aversion for Laurent Gerra is the capital. The imitator who built his career by scouring the Parisian theaters cannot stand life there. He comes there for professional reasons only. The comedian has in fact chosen to live far from the tumult of Paris. He also had little appreciation for the return of residents after an Olympic summer which had seen the streets of Paris deserted.
“The Olympics are over, all the rats have returned… I last two or three days in Paris, I concentrate all my meetings, I no longer have an apartment, I live in the offices, I have a small studio where I am comfortable. I never really liked Paris. Lyon should be the capital! “. Laurent Gerra therefore chose to reside between Lyon and his chalet located in Haute Maurienne.
