The Citéstars association celebrated its 24th anniversary on October 16, 2022. This small party was organized during the gala dinner of the 3rd gold stars ceremony, in the lounges of the Intercontinental hotel in Paris. The organization was created at the time by personalities from the sports and artistic worlds to help all underprivileged and abused children in Ile-de-France. This explains why an impressive crowd gathered in his honor in this luxurious reception venue.
The list of guests, drawn up by David Donadei, the President of Citéstars, was long that evening. Were present: Chantal Richard, better known under the pseudonym of Sloane, but also Richard Sanderson, Yves Lecoq, Daniel Lauclair, Roselyne Bachelot, Larbi “Bibi” Naceri Philippe Candeloro, Pascal Légitimus, Richard Dewitte, Plastic Bertrand, Katia Tchenko, Pierre- Jean Chalençon, Danièle Gilbert, Alain Turban, Pascal Soetens, Gérald Dahan and his wife Claire, Fabienne Thibeault, Christine Kelly, Albert Kassabi alias Bebert des Forbans, with his wife Astrid, David Donadei, Tex, Charlélie Couture with his brother Tom Novembre, Cartouche, but also Passe-Partout – André Bouchet – accompanied by his charming wife Patricia.
Passe-Partout and Patricia, behind the scenes of their unlikely meeting
Between these two, it’s a rolling business. André Bouchet met his wife Patricia in 2004, very far from the walls of Fort Boyard. The 50-year-old, who has also worked at the RATP since 1997, had met his smoldering gaze as he went to his friend Anthony Laborde’s apartment, that is to say Passe-Muraille. But by what miracle? Patricia is quite simply… the mother of the latter’s wife. “I drive by and I see a pretty blonde on the balcony, I call her and I say: ‘Who is this pretty blonde?’he said in the show At Jordan’s. He replies: ‘She’s my wife’s mother’ and he asks me if I want to go upstairs for a drink. I went up and it happened like that. He goes out with the girl. And I’m with the girl’s mom. It’s family!” Fate, no doubt. These two have loved each other for more than 12 years now…
