André Manoukian was not always the sharp sniper he was at the time of The New Star. True seducer, the former columnist of the show I love you etc., broadcast on France 2 until December 2020, charmed his ladies on the set of the program. The guests like the colleagues around him. Among them, the psychologist Caroline Weill. The latter was invited to The luxury moment to answer questions from reporter Jordan de Luxe and she raved about the pianist, “a playboy who ignores himself, a marvel full of charm, humor, tenderness, everything“. This very flattering portrait of André Manoukian hides nothing but a simple friendship. Liane Foly’s ex-companion is very much in love with Stéphanie, whose life he has shared for more than twenty years: “We got to know each other through music. I wrote him an album which, alas, did not work. But, unlike all the other artists for whom I had invested myself, thrilled – and who all dumped me – Stéphanie stayed, while welcoming the singers with whom I was able to work afterwards.“he confessed to the magazine Gala.
The relationship between André Manoukian and Caroline Weill could not be more platonic but full of friendship, as is still the case with the rest of the team of I love you etc. : “I made friends, real friends. […] It was a very great friendship that bound us all. We had a lot of fun, both on and off the air with the debriefs of the show” she revealed to Jordan de Luxe.
Learning that France 2 had decided to put an end to this great television adventure was a shock for Daphné Bürki and her columnists: “We were sad because this show was doing very well so we were happy, we did it with joy. I always said to myself that I was having a wonderful experience, that I was lucky and that one day like all this would stop. But I was sad, I cried“. A return of I love you etc. is it considered by the channel? No, to the chagrin of Caroline Weill: “It would be good because it worked well and people were very interested in love and sex. We realized the impact with the avalanche questions we received“. She can always console herself with the beautiful friendships she has made.
