On the occasion of the release of his new book “Live and be reborn every day”, Patrick Sébastien skims the television sets. He was notably on Canal + to confide in The question box. And when asked what, in his opinion, were the three commandments of a good host, the former troublemaker of Saturday evenings from France 2 did not go around the bush. “Be yourself“, he hammered, then adding: “All the animators who have succeeded for a long time in the profession, I’m talking about Michel Drucker or Jacques Martin, are caricatures. Somehow I am easy to imitate. It seems to be a defect and somewhere in fact it is a quality.“
After a delicate period on the professional and personal level, Patrick Sébastien is therefore beginning a reconstruction. ” Indeed, I come out of a really very dark period.. I lived through a tsunami: exclusion from TV, mourning for people who were dear to me and then this kidney cancer that I was diagnosed with a few months ago. Without forgetting, of course, my separation with Nana after thirty years of marriage. Even if it’s an amicable separation, it’s never easy. And yet I am still here, more alive than ever! »he explained to our colleagues fromParis here.
Invited on the set of “12 noon shots”, Patrick Sébastien had a particularly moving exchange with Jean-Luc Reichmann. “As soon as there is a drama, a new page opens“, launched the companion of Nathalie Lecoultre. “Ah, we have things in common, you and I“, replied his guest who then added: “I picked up expensive. There was the eviction of television, behind there was a separation and an operated cancer, you see that is very heavy.” “You had your motorcycle accident where you almost died“, he reminded the host of the “12 noon shots” visibly very touched. “I think it’s wonderful indeed, and there are things that shattered me in your book, I tell you frankly.“, then told him Jean-Luc Reichmann before evoking several passages of the book in question.
