Invited on the Télématin set this Saturday, March 11, Gérard Klein provoked many reactions on social networks. The reason ? The 80-year-old actor has changed a lot physically over the course of his career.
It had been a while since Gérard Klein had been on television. Invited on the set of Télématin (France 2) this Saturday, March 11, the actor took the opportunity to promote his latest book, Gerard is still dreaming. But not only: the presenter of the show, Damien Thévenot, wanted to retrace the career of the actor on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the famous series L’instit. For the occasion, the latter released a photo of Gérard Klein from that time, to show that he had hardly aged.
Now 80 years old, Gérard Klein then returned to these nine seasons spent in the shoes of the teacher Victor Novak, which became cult for a whole generation. But before being a hit in the France Television series, Gérard Klein was a host on France Inter when he was 22 years old. “I like this job, because it makes me laugh. So as I like to laugh, I quite like it. But I would like, and this is my problem, to try to communicate my desire to laugh to those who are on the other side of the microphone”, he explained at the time.
Gérard Klein had a very controversial look during his singing career
Taking advantage of this moment immersed in the past of Gérard Klein, Damien Thévenot also wanted to broadcast images of his guest at the very beginning of his career as a singer. A period completely forgotten by the general public, where the latter had absolutely no look left in the collective imagination. Long hair, imposing beard and colorful outfits were then the daily life of this handyman. A nice moment of television that fans of the octogenarian have not failed to comment on on social networks.
