War is declared between Guillaume Genton and Nicolas Pernikoff. The two chroniclers of Do not touch My TV have been making headlines for several days since the first decided to make revelations about a large debt concerning the second. On September 22, the Genton group, chaired by Guillaume Genton, announced in a press release, sue Nicolas Pernikoff, CEO of the company The newfor non-payment of several invoicess for over a year and a half. Despite several reminders, Nicolas Pernikoff, who had called on Guillaume Genton for several projects related to advertising, would still have not paid the sum of €165,520.71 owed to Guillaume Genton.
Indeed, if Guillaume Genton is a columnist in Do not touch My TV, he also holds the same position on the radio, signs several documentaries and television reports… and is also the head of a communications agency to name just a few of his hats. For his part, Nicolas Pernikoff is a big name in the world of media since it is to him that we owe the arrival of the show Do not touch My TV on the France 4 channel in 2009.
“This needs to be known!”
Friend with the two columnists, Cyril Hanouna then tried to find out why they decided to settle their scores in a public way. Present on the TPMP set this Wednesday, September 27, 2023, Guillaume Genton then provided several answers. “It’s simple, two years ago Nicolas Pernikoff ordered advertisements from me, for TV, for brands, because he has a communications agency. He ordered advertisements from me for €165,000 and he never paid me! It’s very simple! Obviously I gave him deadlines, there were conciliations. I gave him 1 month, 2 months, 6 months, 1 year. We had taken set up a payment schedule for his debt, he paid once then he stopped paying…” explained the columnist.
“When you get smoked like that, it has to be known!” launched Guillaume Genton before explaining that he decided to make the matter public after seeing Nicolas Pernikoff spend a wonderful vacation in the south of France after having made him new promises of payment: “This summer he’s posting photos of himself fishing for salmon trout in Cap-Ferret, sorry but it’s just a joke. When you’re riddled with debt and you’ve smoked up all of Paris, you don’t post photos vacation!” he protested. Guillaume Genton then explained that he was faced with significant financial concerns which forced him to radically change his lifestyle. “I sold all my boxes, I lived in 350m2, I returned to 30m2, I had problems, partly because of him, it’s a hole of almost €300,000 but I pay all my teams”. For his part, Nicolas Pernikoff denies Guillaume Genton’s accusations which he seems to avoid since he has not appeared on the TPMP set for a long time.
