Slimane is in turmoil. The singer is today the target of two complaints filed by two of his technicians.
The first accuses him of sexual harassment while the second denounces acts of sexual assault. The 35-year-old artist allegedly attacked the latter on the night of December 17 to 18, 2023. In the complaint filed, the complainant indicates that he was dancing when Slimane approached him.
Slimane, targeted by two complaints
The singer then allegedly told him: “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”. He would then “then placed his erect penis between his buttocks and prepared to put his hand on the technician’s penis”write our colleagues from Le Parisien.
The artist's brother then intervened to stop him. If witnesses would have recorded the scene, the singer's brother would have ordered them to “delete all videos of what happened”. Very serious facts which echo those recounted in the first complaint. Indeed, the singer is the subject of accusations of sexual harassment.
Very serious accusations against the singer
Still according to our colleagues from Le Parisien, “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”,
they wrote. The plaintiff'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 several messages of a sexual nature.
Accusations which undermine his relationship with certain personalities. The first to be questioned on this subject was Vitaa, Slimane's best friend. “It’s funny, all my life I’ve been made the spokesperson for all my artist friends. At the time, every time I went on set, there was a question for Diams, even though that wasn't the subject. At one point it was Stromae“, she said.
The heavy decision taken by Lara Fabian to avoid addressing this subject
And Vitaa is not the only singer to have been questioned about this affair. Indeed, according to our colleagues at Publicthe singer Lara Fabian, who collaborated with Slimane for his new album, would have made a big decision. The objective is above all not to have to answer questions concerning the legal cases in which Slimane is entangled.
She does not wishno longer give interviews to the written press and concentrate on promotion on television and radio TV/Radio where instructions were given not to discuss the matter”, they write. Thus, Lara Fabian does not want to address this controversial affair. It thus provides for a “return to press interviews in January if the blow has settled”it is specified. Thus, the singer wishes to avoid this thorny subject at all costs.
