2024 - Shocking sequence at Télématin: the disturbing sketch of Alexandra Pizzagali cut live, she gives her version

The humorist Alexandra Pizzagali, reacted to the controversy which followed his column devoted to the Nice attack on Télématin, this Monday. The new recruit from France 2 denied any “censorship” of the channel.

For his first column in Telematin, Alexandra Pizzagali hit hard. The comedian spoke about the Nice attack for his column entitled The white card. This Monday, the trial of the Nice attack, July 14, 2016, opens at the Special Assize Court of Paris. She had thus evoked the author of the facts, Mohamed Lahouaiej-Bouhlel, “Lover of salsa and bodybuilding – forgive me but that sounds pretty much like my ideal man”. Adding: “Extremely violent husband… Maybe she was looking for him? By missing a cooking or by giving his opinion. Sexually obsessed, each his hobbies.” Something to make the canvas react.

His column had suddenly been cut, France 2 sending an advertising page. What happened ? Alexandra Pizzagali wanted to clarify the situation. “Okay, we had a good laugh but everything is fine. First live, teleprompter problem, caught off guard, prostration, which caused the delay. And the commercials being scheduled to the minute, they were sent before I I was able to finish my column. So I did it right after.”
