“TV Magazine” has just revealed its highly anticipated ranking of the French’s favorite TV personalities. Jean-Luc Reichmann, winner last year, was dethroned by a woman, who occupied first place on the podium. Who is she ?
Jean-Luc Reichmann is no longer the French’s favorite TV personality. The presenter of Twelve Coups de Midi on TF1 has just been dethroned by… Faustine Bollaert! This is the very first time that a woman has reached the top of this ranking produced by TVMagazine. And, the presenter of It starts today arrives very far ahead of her competitors since she is ahead of her colleague Jarry by almost 6 points and Jean-Luc Reichmann, still on the podium, by more than 7 points.
Jarry creates a surprise
Behind them we find Karine Le Marchand (fourth like last year), Nikos Aliagas, Cyril Lignac, Philippe Etchebest, Cyril Féraud and Nagui. All have already been in the top 10 of the ranking. But it is Jarry who creates the surprise. The comedian has in fact just moved into animation by taking control of Everyone wants to take its place on France 2. Four months after its debut, viewers are already under its spell and are loving it.
Faustine Bollaert says she is “proud”
Faustine Bollaert, whose show It starts today a hit every afternoon on France 2, explained his reaction the day TV Magazine told him the happy news. “I was super happy and super proud! I was in an intense period of filming and I wasn’t at home much. I went to pick up my children from school and I told them right away in the car. I couldn’t wait to share this with them…”, she explains. The host already knows how she is going to celebrate this first place this evening. “We said to ourselves, with my husband (editor’s note: the novelist Maxime Chattam), that we would celebrate as a family at the restaurant when the survey came out in TV Mag,” she assured. There is no doubt that a bottle of champagne will be shattered!
