Jamel Debbouze has been making his audience laugh for several years, he still bears the scars of his childhood which was not always rosy. Besides, the one who found his country of origin with emotion kept what he calls “the impostor syndrome”.
“It’s because we didn’t have the means and we were afraid. At one point, the bailiff came to my house every day. I thought it was my uncle, me (…) I’ll have it all my life. I’m always afraid that someone will knock on my door and say: ‘Sorry, we made a mistake (…) and yeah mate, you’re out of here! ‘. All my life I will be afraid that there will be a guy in a suit who arrives with two bodyguards or two policemen and who says to me: ‘We have to give everything back here’. I had that often!” he confided to LCP last January.
On the occasion of his new concept of interviews, Thierry Ardisson was invited by GQ. On this occasion, the companion of Audrey Crespo-Mara was able to watch old cult sequences of his interviews.
From the start, Thierry Ardisson and Jamel Debbouze quickly got hooked. Besides, the man in black quickly unsealed the talent of Mélissa Theuriau’s husband. So inevitably, he could only think well of him… or almost. Although their first interview came during a bit of a sticky time globally speaking, there’s one small gripe he couldn’t help but point out about the humorist who would be involved in the Eric Abidal and Kheira Hamraoui affair.
“I found him in much more dramatic circumstances. He was a guest on my show, two or three days after 9/11. He arrived and he had an extraordinary speech on not making amalgams between Muslims and Islamists. It was good!” confessed Thierry Ardisson. Before adding: “I only regret one thing, that is that he did not continue in this direction. Today, he hides a little”. For the moment, the main target has not reacted to all this.
