With Anne Hidalgo at Paris town hall, but also on Skyrock, Rachida Dati is still the queen of the punchline. This March 31, 2024, while the Minister of Culture was the guest of Planète Rap, she sent a well-felt attack to Gérard Larcher about the Aya Nakamura affair.
“Doggy style isn’t what it is…”
Remember, on March 14, 2024, on the set of Telematin on France 2, the President of the Senate declared about “Djadja“, the hit of the singer of Malian origin, that he was a “ode to doggy style”. He then estimated: “It would not have been my choice, I tell you straight away, even to sing Édith Piaf. It is a somewhat disruptive choice by the President of the Republic. When I look at the text of his songs, I find that “We are quite far from the representation of our country. It is the choice of the President of the Republic…”.
To respond to this criticism, Rachida Dati took out the sulphate and with the temperament we know, she blurted out: “Doggy style isn’t what it is…”quipped Rachida Dati before continuing: “I respect him, he is president of the Senate. It is a great institution, the second person in the State… But we must not lower ourselves to that!”. And to denounce “pure racism” against Aya Nakamura by deploring: “We may not like music, but taking the opening of the Olympic Games as a pretext to attack it on its person or what it is, it is unacceptable! We are no longer in a power of appreciation, we are in the crime…”.
“We have to tell these people that they have to get used to it!”
Furthermore, Rachida Dati put herself in the loop, by extending the Aya Nakamura affair to “people with an immigrant background”. The magistrate observed: when they “access high responsibilities, that never works. I was Minister of Justice (she was Minister of Justice under the presidency of Nicolas Sarkozy, editor’s note), that doesn’t work. I am Minister of Culture, that doesn’t work. It’s not going well. I’m a candidate for mayor of Paris, when we talked about it, it wasn’t going well either… It’s never going to work out, so at some point.” And to conclude: “We have to tell these people that they have to get used to it!” Aya Nakamura couldn’t have said it better!
