At the controls of Touche not at my post Friday April 14, 2023 on C8, Benjamin Castaldi returned to the recent interview with Marine le Pen by Apolline de Malherbe. The opportunity for some columnists to tackle the RMC and BFMTV journalist.
Exceptionally, it’s not Cyril Hanouna who was in charge of Do not touch My TV Friday April 14, 2023 on C8. Absent that day, he was replaced by his regular joker, Benjamin Castaldi, who presented a new unreleased number from the show, recorded earlier the same day. For the occasion, the former host of Loft Story was surrounded by several columnists on set, including: Jean-Pascal Lacoste, Béatrice Rosen, Sophie Coste, Jordan de Luxe, Gilles Verdez, but also Jean-Michel Maire. During the program, Benjamin Castaldi and his team returned to the recent interview of Marine Le Pen by Apolline de Malherbe on RMC and BFMTV.
During this interview, the presenter of the morning of RMC made the buzz by comparing the member of the National Assembly to the comedian Paul Mirabel, recently noticed for his great passivity in the show LOL, who laughs comes out! on Amazon Prime. “LOL, this series is a hit on Amazon. The principle is roughly a loft. And the rule is: if we laugh, we go out. And (in this program, editor’s note), you remind me of Paul Mirabel. Paul Mirabel is this comedian who does nothing! Throughout the series, he is master key, he occasionally flicks a little to bring down the opponent. But otherwise, he takes no risks and it works because he reaches the final. Is this your strategy? It’s not very glorious!“, she had declared.
Jean-Pascal Lacoste on Apolline de Malherbe: “For me, she’s not a good journalist”
On set, several TPMP columnists did not hesitate to openly criticize the BFMTV journalist. “I find the cultural reference of a rather low level for a political journalist who is, I find, quite haughty in the way she interviews people. I find it quite aggressive“, launched Amélie Bitoun. “I can’t see her. I do not like him. She doesn’t listen to people talk. She always cuts off. For me, she is not a good journalist. I don’t like to listen to it“, outbid Jean-Pascal Lacoste. For his part, Benjamin Castaldi made a point of specifying thatApolline de Malherbe is a friend of Cyril Hanouna.
