After years of absence from the air despite a few vain comeback attempts, Christophe Dechavanne made a resounding comeback this fall by becoming Léa Salamé’s teammate in “Quelle époque!”, the new second-evening show from France 2. Asked about this unexpected return to the fore, the former host of “Coucou c’est nous” confided bluntly in an interview with Télé Star: “I have never been jaded about anything. I’m like a horny little guy who is given the opportunity to do things he loves but in a different way. Being on the air is a pleasure and it’s my job”he enthused.
But if he is more than ever delighted to exercise his profession of passion, Christophe Dechavanne must also deal with some criticisms that are not always easy to take. Yesterday, Saturday October 29, he shared the message of a hater following comments made last week when François Hollande was invited to the show. The 64-year-old host was rather complimentary with regard to the results of the five-year term of the former president. “I tell a President of the Republic roughly three, four factual things that were successful: lower unemployment, marriage for all, lower public spending”first recontextualized Christophe Dechavanne.
Obviously, these few compliments were not to the taste of an Internet user who was quick to tackle the host cheerfully on social networks. “He becomes senile the minion”shared Christophe Dechavanne who was surprised: “So people talk about me like that!“. Disgusted to be the subject of such virulent criticism and insults, Christophe Dechavanne then shared his state of mind: “What is going on in the head of a guy who may be nice in life, and who writes to me: ‘Here, you have a drop of Big Holland left on the corner of your lips? ?… We’ve reached a degree of vulgarity! What goes through the mind of someone who takes a bit of his time trying not to make spelling mistakes to write violent filth in the thought, basically! I don’t care about terms, it slips on my back like a duck in the rain, but I find that it’s extremely violent in the process. So to those who write to me: continue if that you pleasure, but frankly…”, he reacted. The message got through.
