The truth has finally come out. Long angry with Johnny Hallyday, Jean-Claude Camus decided to speak. Indeed, in the columns of your Closer magazine to be found on newsstands from Friday December 16, 2022, the show producer confided in the real reason for their estrangement. While rumors said he had been fired by Laeticia Hallyday, Jean-Claude Camus has restored the truth. “The “divorce” was painful … (with Adeline Blondieau, editor’s note) It was said that it was Laeticia who fired me. It’s not true! Johnny needed money, cash. asked for a 12 million advance which I couldn’t give him. My ex-partner and ex-brother-in-law jumped at the chance to become his producer. He paid him… End of the story.” confided Jean-Claude Camus.
Johnny and Jean-Claude Camus angry: who reconciled them?
As a reminder, the two men were angry from 2010 to 2015 before reconciling. But it was not the late rocker who took the first step. “He was far too proud to take a step, and I would never have dared” told Jean-Claude Camus. But then, how did they find each other? Well it was Laeticia Hallyday who played the matchmaker. “It’s Laeticia qhe, in two steps, reconciled us.” he explained.
The first time, she took a step towards him when Adeline Blondieau accused Johnny Hallyday of raping her twice and he came to her defense. “I received twenty-four hours after a text message from Laeticia: “My coco, what generosity, thank you. We need to see each other again.” told Jean-Claude Camus. The second time, Laeticia made them meet at a concert in Brussels. “Johnny was singing in Brussels, where I was too. Laeticia calls me: “Don’t leave, I’ll pass you Johnny…” He invited me to come and see him sing. After the show, he evacuated his lodge. Even Laeticia came out, leaving us both. An incredible moment, in each other’s arms. Johnny said to me: “So happy to see you, so happy…”” he then said.
Jean-Claude Camus: “I knew that I would not see him again”
Three days before the death of Johnny Hallyday, Jean-Claude Camus was in Marne-La-Couette. After a dinner with Laeticia, the girls Jade and Joy and Mamie Rock, he went to see the rocker on the recommendation of Laeticia. “”But he’s so tired” I replied. I entered the room with a lump in my throat but I had to pretend that everything was fine. “You should perk up, haven’t you lost a bit of weight? You still have vocals to do on your next album… “I knew I wouldn’t see him again. In the garden, I burst into tears”” concluded Jean-Claude Camus.
