A war behind the scenes? Maybe. Indeed, between Laurent Delahousse and Thomas Sotto, the atmosphere would not be good in the corridors of France Televisions. In any case, this is what our colleagues from the Parisian during the weekend of March 18 and 19. According to them, the rag is burning between the two journalists. In particular because of the eviction of the presenter from “Telematin” of “8:30 p.m., Sunday” as a joker. An eviction that he would have had a lot of trouble digesting.
In effect, France Televisions has chosen to withdraw the animation from the magazine part of the program of France 2 broadcast on Sunday evenings. A part that he has been hosting for six years. At this announcement, Thomas Sotto would have come out of his hinges as reported by a source close to the Parisian. “Thomas was angry. He had tense exchanges with Laurent by text message. The dialogue is broken between them”, she said. Something to make Cyril Hanouna react.

Between Laurent Delahousse and Thomas Sotto, Cyril Hanouna has decided
This Tuesday, March 21, the host of “TPMP” spoke of these tensions on the set of the daily. “Baba” also took the opportunity to say in which “Team” he places himself. “I am Team Delahousse. All the way!”, he dropped in the preamble before specifying that he did not carry Thomas Sotto in his heart and that he had already spoken about it on set in the past. “Thomas Sotto I already said what I thought of him here. Thomas Sotto is an opportunist. He absolutely wants to bite, bite, bite”he continues before adding: “He wanted, in my opinion, to bite Delahousse because he told him that he was his joker when he was not there and then he wanted to bite a little more. Delahousse will always be Delahousse”.
After once again hammering that he was “Team Delahousse”Cyril Hanouna took the opportunity to reveal that he knew Julia Vignali’s sidekick very well on “Telematin”. “Sotto for once I know him well. He was with me at Europe 1”, he informed. The host also assured that the “rival” of Laurent Delahousse would call his friends and collaborators only “when he needs [vous]”.
