This is a first in TPMP that all the media were closely scrutinizing. This Thursday, September 14 on C8the former 2007 presidential candidate Ségolène Royal took his first steps with Cyril Hanouna, for a column lasting more than a quarter of an hour called Ségolène explains. For this first, the politician proposed a platform dedicated to the painful subject of sexual and/or incestuous violence committed against children. For more than sixteen minutes, the mother supported her point in front of nine silent and quiet columnists.
A first that divided the Web. If our colleagues from Parisian showed themselves to be positive by pointing out a first chronicle ”powerful and striking”others were much more doubtful: ”What a shame Ségolène Royal is to end her professional career as a Hanouna columnist. What a shame for her who calls herself left-wing to take money from Bolloré and the far right!” condemned one of them. One thing is sure, Ségolène Royal caused a lot of buzz for its premiere, and was one of the most commented on topics on Twitter France, but what did the audiences say?

Audience failure and a bending curve
Unfortunately for Cyril Hanouna, the Ségolène Royal effect proved non-existent. For its premiere, the former minister of Emmanuel Macron, François Hollande and Jacques Chirac only convinced 762,000 viewers between 7:42 p.m. and 8:04 p.m. Above all, as Benoît Daragon, journalist at Parisianin a tweet that he has since deleted, the chronicle of Ségolène Royal see the curve of TPMP crumble: ‘‘This is the only moment of Cyril Hanouna’s show where the audience curve weakens”.
A bitter observation for Cyril Hanounawho will have to find a solution so that the next column of Ségolène Royal does not scare away its loyal audience. It must be said that this Thursday, September 14, the politician was faced with the Blues’ second match in the Rugby World Cup. A fierce competition, which has also forced Cyril Hanounawhich achieved one of its worst historical scores with only 897,000 viewers (4%) for the last part, which exceptionally ended ten minutes earlier than usual.
