On the set of “Don’t touch my post! “, Cyril Hanouna is used to asking sometimes very intimate questions to columnists… The proof, Tuesday March 7, 2023, the flagship host of C8 asked his small band if one of them had already experienced a bad experience with a presenter during his career… And against all expectations, it was Valérie Benaïm, often nicknamed “Miss Bisounours” by her colleagues, who took the floor!
“With Christophe Dechavanne, on the first of the “100 greatest””, dropped the journalist who began her career on the first channel.
And to add: “It’s the first time in my entire career, and it’s been 25 years since I’ve been on TV, that I’ve left a show without greeting my co-host. And yet, at TF1 I was “madam duo”, I did all the duets with almost all the channel’s presenters. And I left slamming the door, it’s the first time I’ve done this, “ she remembered before specifying to Cyril Hanouna that the situation had not taken long to get better thanks to Étienne Mougeotte, the vice-president of the TF1 group and director of the channel from 1987 to 2007.

I complained to the production and I even went to tell him head-on after the end of filming »had entrusted one of the stars of the program to Entertainment TV… Worse still, a source even claimed that the host had “come to blows with the producer, Franck Firmin-Guion”.
