Invited on the set of Jordan De Luxe, Gérard Majax was without filter this Friday, January 20. While the pension reform raises many protests in France, the 79-year-old magician did not fail to also criticize the low pension he received after a lifetime of work dedicated to his art. He said he receives around 1,600 euros per month, an amount that pushes him not to hang up his top hats and his card games since he still practices! Like Firmine Richard, Dave or Stone, many artists have to continue their career beyond the age limit set by the State.
Very famous since the 1970s, the magician was regularly invited to television shows, such as the famous “Club Dorothée” which people in their forties remember so much. Moreover, Emmanuel Macron had not failed last year to quote the name of the magician in one of his answers, putting a spotlight on the career of the latter!
“I didn’t recognize her at all” !
Returning to his years of success, Gérard Majax could not help but talk about his friend Dorothée, with whom he shared pleasant memories. The last time he met her, a few years ago during a concert at the Palais des Congrès, the presenter and singer seemed to him very sad… That evening, she came to him. “She had brown hair and was a little bit fatter, I didn’t recognize her at all”, he admits. “She is unhappy not to do television again! She is unhappy to stay at home, even if she has the means to take pleasure in it, he doesn’t like it at all to no longer be involved in creation because he’s a person who has always liked to create. She’s the one who told me”, added the magician. And to clarify that Dorothée (who will celebrate her 70th birthday on July 14, editor’s note) wanted to diversify and above all get out of her label as a friend of the youngest. Difficult to date to know how the host lives, locked in her bubble, after almost twenty years of a brilliant television career in the service of children’s entertainment…
