It was a very nice initiative. But it turned into a fiasco because of a video. On December 8, 2021, Marlène Schiappa, at the time Minister Delegate for Citizenship, received Magali Berdah and several reality TV candidates at the Élysée. The goal ? Give keys to these five influencers, from the world of reality TV, so that they can educate their young audience about sexual and gender-based violence. If the idea is good, a video in which the guests sing and dance in front of the minister has sparked controversy.
“What are we laughing at Marlène Schiappa! Do you want cocktails? And well there is none”sang Magali Berdah and the influencers, to the tune of “Happy birthday” by Patrick Sébastien, in the van that took them towards the Élysée… before bursting out laughing together. For her part, Marlène Schiappa appears sometimes serious, sometimes laughing out loud when she discovers the improvised “show”. On the Web, this moment caused a strong reaction. Many Internet users have expressed their exasperation. In particular because of the discrepancy between the seriousness of the subject and the joy displayed in the videos. Neverly, reality TV candidate and influencer present at the evening, wanted to react to the controversy at Sam Zirah.

A year after this story, the young woman gave additional information on the course of the evening. But mostly acknowledged that their behavior was inappropriate. “I was with my car and the girls came on their side with Magali Berdah in a van. And in the van apparently, they had created a song for Marlène Schiappa”remembers the young woman before continuing: “As soon as we got there they said to him directly said ‘yes, we made a song for you’. I don’t know who filmed, I think it was Victoria, and suddenly it was on. of the”.
Subsequently, it would be Magali Berdah who would have challenged the one who will make the front page of Playboy : “Neverly is a dancer, dance”she would have launched before the main interested party runs. “It’s true that it had no reason to be in the sense that we are talking about violence against women […] In fact, we did that just before talking about violence against women. It was really not in the context where we talked about sensitive subjects and suddenly we got up and it shouted, it danced! She defended herself. Despite everything, she understands the reaction of some and the controversy that this sequence may have generated: “Even me when I look now… it’s nonsense. You have to tell the truth”. “We come to talk about sensitive subjects and you see us singing, dancing… It’s nonsense”she admitted filled with regret.
