It was a moment that marked him deeply and that he has never forgotten. Before filling theaters and making his fans die of laughter, Fary started out on the show hosted by Laurent Ruquier on France 2 : “We only ask to laugh about it”. A show that brought him a lot but also hurt him. Especially during his sketch on Sexion d’Assault that Jean Benguigui, “juror” of the program broadcast from 2010 to 2014, did not appreciate at all.
“In fact, I’m doing a sketch on Sexion d’Assault. It works more or less, but you feel that there’s a group behind me that’s pretty good. And I don’t know, Jean Benguigui, he’s annoyed because ‘there are four young black men who laugh a little more than the others’remembered Fary during his visit to the Léna Situations podcast “Six Seater Sofa” this Tuesday, June 13. The 31-year-old comedian continues: “so him, because he sees black people laughing, he says to himself: ‘Well, these are his friends’. Which is already crazy”.

Fary, disappointed not to have been supported by Laurent Ruquier?
Laurent Ruquier then intervenes without really taking sides: “He says: ‘It’s true that the last time there were your friends, they applauded you because they were your friends’. friends because there are four niggers in the audience!” It was crazy. Suddenly, I was the culprit who pretended that it was not my friends when clearly it was a discriminatory amalgam “. “The more I think about it as I get older, the more I think it’s crazy what they did”concluded Fary.
This Friday, June 16, Laurent Ruquier was invited to react to these statements in the Figaro Buzz TV. “That too is not new, it’s always old stories that come out”he tried to qualify against Damien Canivez and Sarah Lecoeuvre before recalling: “Do you realize, that was 12 years ago!”
The companion of Hugo Manos finds this situation “sad for him (Fary: editor’s note)” because he feels like “the show really brought Fary out”. “Finally, accusing me of being racist is like accusing him of being anti-Semitic because he attacked Jean Benguigui, you know what I mean”continued the host of “Big heads”.
Laurent Ruquier defends his show which is far from being “racist”
To defend himself, the latter recalled that comedians such as Wally Dia and Ahmed Sylla emerged thanks to the program of France 2. In fact, he finds “surprising” being called a racist: “I have the impression that on the contrary the show has shown a whole new generation from all walks of life”.
“Anyway I don’t see Jews, blacks, whites, or others, I don’t look at the color of people. For me, a comedian is funny or not. I don’t look at the color of people, it’s madness”he concluded, not annoyed.
