At 36, Baptiste Lecaplain is a fulfilled man: he multiplies the shows and the roles while enjoying his family life, he who is the father of two children. He also mentioned this balance to Yann Barthès in Day-to-day December 16.
Guest of the TMC show, the discreet 36-year-old comedian – who had been targeted by accusations of relatives of Gad Elmaleh in the case around CopyComic – therefore spoke of his new show, his success on stage and how his job leaves her two daughters indifferent! Rare secrets for the one who is the father of Thelma (born in 2013) and of a second little girl with a first name kept secret (born in 2018). “It was my daughter who inspired me See people. When I went to a show, I didn’t want to tell my daughter that I was going to work because it is a real pleasure for me to play. And, at the same time, I didn’t want to tell her that I was going to play a show because she was going to put me with the donkey Trotro something like that! So I said to him: ‘I’m going to see the people’. And one day she told me with her cute little voice, I thought it was a beautiful title so I kept it“, he first confided.
And Baptiste Lecaplain, who remains secret about the love affair he lives with the mother of his children – he admitted, however, that, on the heart side, he had a late sexuality – then spoke a little longer about his role of father. “It distressed me a lot of things on the stage. We take a step back. That’s why when I say a joke doesn’t work, I worry less now. My daughters, that I had a standing ovation at the Olympia or what, they don’t care, the next morning they want to go see the ducks or play in the park. So in real life, I’m first and foremost a dad now before being a comedian or an artist so the rest is a bonus. The most important thing is to be a good dad for my daughters“, he explained.
The comedian’s new show will therefore evoke this fatherhood but also the fact of aging and unexpected things like … sodomy. “That’s why I’m against sodomy because if I had done just that, little girls wouldn’t have it!“, joked Baptiste Lecaplain, who promises that the subject discussed on stage is”neither cracra nor gritty“but that he has”a real theory on it“!
