On April 20, 2023, Blanche Gardin declared war on Jeff Bezos and Prime Video. Contacted to participate in the next season of LOL: Who laughs comes out!, the 46-year-old comedian took to his social networks to decline the invitation. It is through a long message published on his Facebook account that the companion of Louis CK explained. “I would be embarrassed (not to say that it would really hurt my ass) to be paid 200,000 euros for a day’s work”, she particularly lamented. Words that elicited strong reactions.
Interviewed by Paris Match a few weeks after these controversial statements, a candidate for the show violently attacked the actress. “It’s disgusting !”he assures in the columns of our colleagues. “She passes for a saint and makes us pass for bastards who take the money. Especially since these are not the amounts announced!specifies the one who wished to remain anonymous.
The actor director who would have collaborated with the young woman continues: “It’s a bitch for us. It’s not okay to swing salaries like this. How would she take it if we swayed what she earns on stage? And then it’s not okay to refuse 200,000 euros. There is the one who offers and the one who accepts. We can reproach the first, considering that it is a large sum, but not the second who can consider himself happy with the value given to him”.

For his part, Ahmed Sylla also condemns the words of his colleague. Guest of Cauet on the airwaves of NRJ on April 24, Alban Ivanov’s sidekick believes that his counterpart threw “opprobrium” on his fellows.
He also denies the amounts announced. “I’m quite close to the production, we didn’t offer him that, there was no financial proposal from Amazon! There was all this rumor circulating in Paris, some would have took 300,000, 400,000 euros, that’s not true. The agents talk to each other and it’s not that amount. That’s not the price “.
