In 2021, while part of the team of
Vianney
during the tenth edition of The Voice
, the artist The Vivi was the target of the exhumation of old tweets in which he had made comments sexist, racist and homophobic. Dismissed by the production, the singer experienced a real descent into hell. A difficult moment on which he recently agreed to return on the set of Sam Zirah.
“What stands out from these tweets from 2017, there’s one that says: ‘People, if there are 50 RTs in this tweet, I’ll give you my girl’s at. Okay, she’s 11, I ‘I’m 17, but it’s not that serious'”, underlined the host. A laughable publication for its guest who believes that it was a simple “joke”. “The guy says: ‘Guys I’m a ped*phile’, but a real ped*phile wouldn’t say it.” Unfortunately, the candidate went even further in his remarks.
“For people who don’t know, it’s logical. That’s why I accepted the fact of being excluded. There are plenty of people who told me: ‘Will file a complaint against TF1‘. I said no. I understand people who don’t have the context. It’s logical that they might think that about me, but the problem is that you listen behind what the person has to say to you.” he confided.

“After The Voice, I drank like a mentally ill person”
During this interview, The Vivi also spoke of the dark period which followed her exclusion. “After The Voice, I drank like a mental patient“, he admitted before addressing the serious consequences of his alcoholism. “(I drank) a five liter Martini almost every night […] The first three months after The Voice, it was really catastrophic.”
The young man thus revealed that he considered alcoholism as a “loophole” following the controversies which had overwhelmed him, an aspect which he had not anticipated when he was a candidate. “You’re here, you’re so good, I was making excuses to have parties…”

And to conclude by returning to his ex-girlfriend who sued him for accusations of domestic violence. “I don’t even know what the issue was about anymore. I was just worshipful, drunk with phew. She wanted me to leave, then she wanted me to stay and I pushed her…”, he indicated. At the time, the young woman called the police who then placed her companion in police custody. A very dark affair…
