Nagui is an indestructible TV presenter.
His CV says it all: May the best win,
Taratata, Don't forget your toothbrush, Nowhere Else,
Intervilles, Don't forget the lyrics…And the list of animated – or co-hosted – shows is still very long. In 2025, it must once again oversee Intervilles. A very popular entertainment brought up to date which annoys some. As evidenced by this rant from DJ and friend of Thierry Ardisson, Philippe Corti.
Nagui: more than forty years on the air
Nagui began his career as a host on pirate radio stations in 1979. He has a taste for the microphone, fits on
Radio France Côte d'Azur three years later. Between 1987 and 2014, he will chain the waves of
RTL, Europe 2, Europe
1 et France inter. At the same time, the presenter has a huge career at the
television. Between entertainment in songs and game shows.
This is particularly known for cathodic entertainment like the musicals Taratata or Don't forget the lyrics.
He also hosted the TV game Everyone wants to take their place until 2021. Mid-90s, in Don't Forget Your Toothbrush, its gun shaped microphone marks as much as it shocks the audience.
Nagui will once again host Intervilles
The best jams are made in old pots. It's well known. The proof: the rehash of Intervilles.
Or the 2025 vintage of an ultra-popular sports game in the 90s. The tests of strength, the villages of supporters, the cows… A whole decorum which lulled the kids bottle-fed on television at the time. But times have changed.
Intervilles 2025 looks like a twenty-year-old game. Because Nagui will once again present the family show after having already done so in the mid-2000s. However, its presentation is not to everyone's taste. Several mayors have already spoken out against the future broadcast. The reason:
the possible absence of the famous cows in the game.
Philippe Corti lights Nagui on cows
It's not just the elected officials who are shouting.
Philippe CortiDJ, close to Thierry Ardisson, and even actor in the series Mafiamocked Nagui in
Free Midday. He explains that he declined Nagui’s invitation for Intervilles 2025. For the same reasons: “I said no […] Without the cows, it’s no!”
In addition, the blindtest specialist DJ described Nagui as “woke” in the same newspaper. Understand: a progressive and inclusive person, this term often being diverted from its original meaning by the far right.
The rag burns between Corti and Nagui, the latter not having commented on these statements. We already think we're in the Intervilles arena!
