Two more elements in the gang… At the start of the week, Cyril Hanouna presented his latest recruit in “Touche pas à mon poste”, the famous announcer Danielle Gilbert. And this Friday, September 27, the troublemaker closed his burst of broadcasts as he had started by introducing a newcomer, well known to TF1 viewers. Dominique Lagrou-Sempère made his debut on the C8 talk show under the laudatory words of its now leader. “I would like us to welcome and applaud very loudly someone who is joining us today. She is a great journalist, former reporter for the 1 p.m. news, she was with Jean-Pierre Pernaut, someone who we love so much and who we miss dearly”portrayed Cyril Hanouna, impressed by the pedigree of his new columnist.
“Happier” on TF1, she left the channel in 2021
The protégé of the late 1 p.m. star, once tipped to take over from him, had already visited the set of “TPMP” on June 26, but only as a guest. She notably mentioned her surprise departure from the front page, she who was one of its historic figures. “It’s been 20 years of my life…“, she had first underlined before confiding that she had been disappointed to see Marie-Sophie Lacarrau take back the position she coveted. “I can no longer do what challenges me and I like challenges. And Presenting was what I wanted, and it didn’t happen. So what was I supposed to do?“, explained the one who received a more than adequate salary.
She thanked Cyril Hanouna for his warm welcome
Well received by her comrades, Dominique Lagrou-Sempère seemed delighted with her return to the small screen. “I am very happy. I discovered the public who made me love (with hands, editor’s note). It’s nice”, she rejoiced live, before thanking Cyril Hanouna on social networks for his request.
