Notoriety can sometimes last for days. And it is probably not Nagui
who will say the opposite. Indeed, Mélanie Page’s companion made a funny confession this Tuesday, February 13, 2024 on the set of Do not forget the lyrics
. Facing Jean-Charles, a professional police officer and candidate who came to try his luck on the show France 2
, the presenter made some confidences related to the job of the evening candidate. And in particular the time when he received a fine from the police, simply for the fact that he was known.
“It costs me after bad buzz on the internet, but I always tell the truth. I have often obviously been arrested by the police. You can imagine, at my old age, there are plenty of reasons to have done stupid things … Stupid things where… we did something stupid, we stop, you recognize, yes there is the fine and we don’t talk about it anymore”he initially declared before recognizing that being famous allowed him to get out of bad situations: “From time to time, I admit, there are people who say: ‘Oh, it’s the guy from the TV!’ And then, very kindly, they say: ‘Come on, it’s good for this time. Be careful, it doesn’t matter. Go move along!’
Nagui sanctioned by the police because of a selfie
Despite everything, notoriety does not prevent him from being sanctioned all the time. And Nagui gave an example to prove his point. “I was on a motorbike, the south, very hot, no helmet, it’s not good”he admitted before continuing: “I get stopped by the police who tell me: ‘You don’t have a helmet. Show me the papers’. The guy lectures me and says: ‘You know, you have to be careful…’. If the host thought he had gotten out of the bad situation, five young people came and destroyed his previous efforts.
‘They come and say: could we take a selfie?’ I was still stationary, I say, ‘Yeah, okay fine.’ So I take off the headset and do the selfie.”, he said. After the “photo session”, Nagui put his helmet back on but the policeman came back to see him: “‘Why are you taking selfies?!’ I say: ‘Well because the young people asked me’. He asks me: ‘Who are you?!’ I say: ‘Well, I work on TV…’.
A sentence that cost him dearly. In fact, the agent finally asked the presenter for the papers, returned to his motorcycle and gave a ticket to Mélanie Page’s companion. “He comes back with a ticket and he tells me: ‘Since you are known, you must set an example!’he said.
