She didn't expect it. This Saturday, November 23, Léa Salamé was at the head of the show What eralike every week. For this special evening, politics was in the spotlight. In fact, it was two former residents of Matignon who were present on the set. First of all there was Dominique de Villepin, the former Prime Minister of Jacques Chirac. Concerning the second person, it is Elisabeth Borne, former Prime Minister of Emmanuel Macron, the current president. At her side, the host was able to count on the presence of Philippe Caverivière who fully intended to have fun.
Philippe Caverivière spoke about the government in complete transparency, giving a very straightforward opinion on their way of working. For him, Michel Barnier is one of the political figures who are totally lost in their daily lives. Léa Salamé then launched the subject on Marine Le Pen and her possible conviction, recalling that she could therefore not run in the presidential elections of 2027. The song
The penitentiary, by Johnny Hallyday, began to be heard, provoking laughter from the audience.
Philippe Caverivière: he sends a lost ball to Laeticia Hallyday
But why did Philippe Caverivière choose to broadcast this song during his column? “We criticized Johnny a lot,” he began before adding: “But he was a finer analyst of political life than we thought.” The chronicler continues his explanation by stating: “Johnny who, also like Marine, had people in his entourage who were poorly paid to do not much.” Philippe Caverivière did not stop there and concluded: “But he didn’t call them his parliamentary assistants, he called her his wife.” A lost ball for Laeticia Hallyday.
This joke from Philippe Caverivière greatly amused the people present on the set, starting with Léa Salamé. The host did not openly react but, as soon as Johnny Hallyday's song was heard, she had a big smile on her lips. If she wanted to hide behind her hands, Léa Salamé's amusement was very visible. However, she is not the only one to have been amused by this lost bullet.
Elisabeth Borne was also seen with a little smile on her lips.
Philippe Caverivière: a columnist who dares everything
A few weeks ago, it was Léa Salamé who paid the price for Philippe Caverivière.
The columnist always has a sense of humor that dares to go beyond all limits and he greatly enjoys it. “I stayed attentive to the news and I did well because there was a major political event which was reported in an investigative newspaper, Gala I believe,” he said a few weeks ago. He then specifies that he discovered crucial information by reading the articles before speaking directly to Léa Salamé.
“ Your roommate, your roommate++, Raphaël Glucksmann, injured his back while moving his library. We didn’t come far from a very rotten death,” he said. Enough to amuse the main person concerned.
