His good nature was the delight of TV sets and comedies, Wahid Bouzidi succumbed to the consequences of a stroke this Sunday, August 20. The comedian and actor was 45 years old.
On Wednesday August 16, he suffered a stroke while on vacation in Marrakech, Morocco. He had since been in a coma. The Franco-Algerian comedian and humorist Wahid Bouzidi died on Sunday August 20 following this stroke. He was 45 years old.
A historical figure of the Jamel Comedy Club, Wahid Bouzidi belongs to the first wave of comedians who made themselves known thanks to this stand-up scene launched by Jamel Debbouze, which gave pride of place to diversity. He then tries the adventure of the one-man show and does not take long to attract the attention of television. Endowed with an undeniable sympathy capital, the actor becomes a regular on Arthur’s sets (“Vendredi, tout est permis”) and briefly becomes a columnist for the Téléfoot program.
Among the personalities who paid tribute to him, we naturally find the host Arthur.
In the cinema, he multiplies the supporting roles for Nakache and Tolédano (Tellement Proches), Philippe Lacheau (Nicky Larson and the perfume of Cupid) or even Gabriel Julien-Laferrière (Neuilly his mother, his mother).
