Anny Duperey does not go there with dead hands. Once again, she gets loose on Jean-Paul Belmondo.
Even if the years go by, bitterness is still present between Anny Duperey and Jean-Paul Belmondo. A few weeks ago, the actress had not been kind to her counterpart. Indeed, she explained that she had had to “to scare”. “I think I was the type of woman who should have scared him,” she explains in an interview with Jordan De Luxe for his show At Jordan’s. And his statements quickly escalated: “He liked bitches, it must be said”, says Anny Duperey.
She returned to the tensions with Jean-Paul Belmondo : “So actually, at the end of the film [elle a joué avec Belmondo dans Stavisky, ndlr.]there were some small tensions, it was really not pleasant (…) one day he came to the theater, I held out my hand to him, I said to him ‘I almost wrote to you’ and then he came to see all my pieces, and we had lunch together, she reveals before continuing: He said to me ‘yes, what do you want, the disease made me nice’, it’s extraordinary.” A confidence that echoes the strokes of the deceased actor.
Anny Duperey: “He still had a somewhat misogynistic relationship with women”
For Anny Duperey, Jean-Paul Belmondo’s problem was only that he was “not mean”: “he was raw, macho.” Later, the two actors became friends: “He still had a somewhat misogynistic relationship with women”, she told Tele-Star. Despite everything, the death of the actor deeply saddened her : “A great friendship was born between us, which was never denied until his death. We had finally passed the age of seduction and childishness!”. We can say that for many years, Anny Duperey had some grudges: “I must admit that the current did not pass between us. This despite what his friend, the make-up artist Charly Koubesserian, had suggested to me, whom I knew well, and who was devastated by the climate between us! Jean-Paul was in his ‘puffball’ era”.
Shocking statements
The relationship with women John Paul Belmondo was not normal for the actress : “He still had a somewhat misogynistic relationship with women, which was not my cup of tea. He was then living with a luscious Italian woman who put her breasts squarely on the table (Laura Antonelli). In short, let’s say that he liked ‘cushion’ women, to put it mildly. However, I was a very free girl, not at all a ‘submissive doll’. To be honest, I had to be the type of woman who made him fear.”
“Every morning, for two months, I went to Yves Saint Laurent”
She still has fond memories of Stravinsky : “My first strong memory of this film is well before shooting, when the costumes were made. Every morning, for two months, I went to Yves Saint Laurent and he himself designed all the clothes on me. The tete-a-tete with this genius was a waking dream for the granddaughter of a seamstress that I was. And who, moreover, often created her film costumes herself.”
