Since she put on the slippers of Yves Calvi at the head of “C à vous” on France 5, Caroline Roux has never stopped climbing the ladder. The journalist has notably been entrusted with an exceptional program entitled “The Event” and in which she receives a leading political figure in a face-to-face against a black backdrop. And for her big premiere, this high-pitched blonde received neither more nor less than the President of the Republic in person. A pretty timorous success unfortunately for her with the relative failure of the last issue where Caroline Roux received Jean-Luc Mélenchon. That evening, the journalist and the former presidential candidate gathered only one million viewers on average (5.3% of PDA) according to Médiamétrie.
But this week, it is she who makes the front page of Télé Loisirs which also devotes a large interview to her. The opportunity for the journalist to look back on her development, particularly in terms of exchanges with the politicians she receives. “When I started in the political interview, I thought that, to be heard and credible, you had to raise your voice, be pugnacious and cut the floor. Moreover, as a woman, I thought that it was necessary to gain stripes of authority. There was a way of overplaying a form of aggression that didn’t look like me“, she explained.
Before adding:With age, we end up finding ourselves. Today, I’m in a style that totally resembles me. I am no longer afraid of being judged. I assume what I am, and that really corresponds to what I do in C in the air.” “It’s in my character. I don’t like conflict, I like to go smoothly. In C dans l’air, we can disagree, but without the need for excess.”, concluded the one who celebrated her 50th birthday last year.
