This Thursday, February 16, 2023, Cyril Hanouna was like every day of the week, at the controls of his show “Touche pas à mon poste”. From the start of the show, the host invited his columnists to react to the debate recently revived by the singer Angèle, about female hair.
“If it’s the symbol of the woman who regains power, that’s very good, where is the problem? I find that very good for her, me personally, it’s not my thing” declared Delphine Wespiser , with the approval of Valérie Bénaïm.
Same story for Danielle Moreau who approved the singer’s approach: “I think it’s great, I would have loved there to be Angèle when I was a teenager because it was a tragedy, me I had hair on my legs, I couldn’t remove them and so I kept my navy blue knee-highs on the beach…”.
Cyril Hanouna skids and touches the hair of a spectator
At the end of the debate, Cyril Hanouna who was moving on set, stopped in front of a young man sitting in the audience and then asked him: “Can I touch?”. Without even having received the young man’s response, the host literally grabbed his afro hair and declared: “I love it!”.
Amused, Cyril Hanouna then launched: “I love it, it reminds me of March 8 with Danielle…”. A direct allusion to Danielle Moreau’s pubic hair, often teased that she doesn’t wax because she never has sex. Immediately, the sequence generated many remarks on Twitter:
SO #CyrilHanouna who touches afro hair and compares it to pubic hair… #tpmppic.twitter.com/GgJ6QLFYw4

Can someone explain to @Cyrilhanouna that black people are not fluff and that it’s disrespectful to put your hands in someone’s afro (or other) hair without their consent!! #TPMP#CyrilHanouna
