New entertainment on M6. Monday, July 25, 2022, the channel offered the game Who can beat us?, presented by Eric Antoine. Philippe Etchebest was notably invited to answer questions and he stood out during the broadcast.
One hundred people were invited into the audience to test their knowledge in six different categories. For each theme, Eric Antoine called on an expert from M6 to tackle them. We thus found Marie Portolano for sport, Philippe Etchebest for cooking, Hélène Ségara for music, Mac Lesggy for science, Cristina Cordula for fashion and the 45-year-old magician for entertainment. The goal of the personalities was to eliminate all their opponents. 300,000 euros were at stake for the best candidate of the public or for a viewer drawn at random if the team of presenters won.
And we can say that Philippe Etchebest was, as usual, fully into the competition. Candidates had to answer the following question:Why doesn’t Ringo Starr play the drums at the beginning of the Beatles song Hey Jude?“. They had a choice between “he was on strike, he was no longer in the Beatles, he was playing the piano, he was taking a pee break“After a short discussion with Eric Antoine and Dominique’s husband, Hélène Ségara validated the second proposal.”I validate ‘he was no longer part of the Beatles’ because the pee break I do not believe in it“, launched the singer.
If he agreed with this choice at the start, the jurorTop Chef objective had a big hesitation just before the answer was given. “Wasn’t he taking a pee break?“, he wondered. And it was indeed the right answer. When he discovered it, Philippe Etchebest – whose look has been talking about lately – got up and got annoyed: “Oh shit I meant to say that. I swear I meant to say it. I said it ! Hey, I was wondering. F**** I meant to say it, f****.“ He also nudged the couch. A video relayed on the M6 account with the caption “Philippe Etchebest goes crazy“.
