Tony Parler and David Ginola had the merit of making headlines after their appearance on the show “What an era” this Saturday, April 22, 2023. Talking about their respective careers, Léa Salamé wanted to know more about their finances: “Winning so much money, does it freak out?”. What the former NBA basketball champion replied not without humor: “They like this question too much in France”.
“It’s a problem, in France, we don’t say how much we earn! Me, in England, it was displayed. Everyone knew how much people earned”, added David Ginola by denouncing this taboo. A point of view shared by Tony Parker who has long distinguished himself in the United States: “The same. They are proud of the success and they are not afraid to talk about it”. Neither one nor two, Léa Salamé then asked them if the French had a problem with “success or with money”.“Jealousy”replied the tic to tac the two stars.
An analysis that earned them a shower of criticism on social networks. Having heard of the controversy, Cyril Hanouna put this hot topic back on the table on the set of “Touche pas à mon poste” this Monday, April 24, 2023. The opportunity for his columnist Raymond Aabou to empty his bag. As a reminder, in parallel with “TPMP”, the latter continues to be a delivery driver. In the past, despite his modest means, Guillaume Genton’s sidekick has always managed to afford nice cars thanks to his savings.

“But why do you continue to work?”
But since it is known, the principal concerned is sometimes the target of gratuitous attacks: “When I wasn’t doing TV and you couldn’t imagine my salary […] I was told, ‘it’s good you’re a delivery man, you have a nice car. You’re doing well. Now that I’m doing TV: ‘Ah it pays. Hanouna pays off […]. Even at my own job, guys tell me, ‘Why do you keep working? You have plenty of money!’ You don’t know if it’s jealousy or not”.
To defend his point of view, Raymond Aabou then challenged his other colleagues: “Are we all here able to bring our tax slip? And show it to the French? There is no one who will do it […]. It is indeed a taboo and that people are jealous or […] are envious!”. A debate that sparked strong reactions on Twitter!
