A victory for Jean-Marie Bigard. The companion of Lola Marois and columnist of “TPMP” was indeed released this Wednesday, May 10 by the Criminal Court of Draguignan as reported by our colleagues from 20 minutes. The 68-year-old comedian was sued for defamation of his ex-producer Chrystel Camus who claimed 60,000 euros in damages. She attacked him for his remarks made on C8 then on the antenna of South Radio.
In August 2022, the niece of Jean-Claude Camus, the ex-producer of Johnny Hallyday, went to the set of the daily C8 to denounce the behavior of Jean-Marie Bigard. This one was to occur alongside Dieudonné but finally reconsidered his decision after the controversy linked to this story. The 60,000 euros corresponded to the damage that she considers to have suffered as a result of the cancellation of the show.

Chrystel Camus warned Jean-Marie Bigard
“If he doesn’t do this show, at the end of our contract, I should start a procedure”warned Chrystel Camus against Cyril Hanouna before continuing: “For the companies that I represent, it can amount to 10 million minimum.”
A few weeks later, the companion of Lola Marois responded to his ex-producer. “She still arrived at 14 million. So I told her, 14 million, insofar as you’re going to take them in your ass, you’re going to have to roll them well because you’re going to damage your asshole. ball !”he dropped, all in poetry.
Remarks that Jean-Marie Bigard reiterated on the antenna of South Radio on September 23, 2022, also taking the opportunity to qualify Chrystel Camus as“crook” : “She has fun taking shows that she doesn’t produce at all, she sells the tickets and then she keeps the money. That’s what she’s doing with the Monte-Carlo Symphony. “

Cyril Hanouna’s columnist did not stop there and also swung: “She’s not the head of any valid society,” he continued. […] She doesn’t have a proper license, she doesn’t have any company rights to anything!”. This last outing brought Me Drevet out of her hinges. “Today, Chrystel Camus operates through an English company of which she is not the manager. But Jean-Marie Bigard signed the amendments to the contract. Which is valid until proven otherwise. He only broke verbally this contract”then assured the lawyer of the producer.
The lawyer also considered that the repeated remarks of Jean-Marie Bigard would have undermined the honor and consideration of the producer “especially when one evolves in the middle of the show”. “He had degrading words, even if they come from a supposedly salacious character”he also lamented.
