DNowadays, the buzz knows no bounds. And it’s not the rappers Kaaris and Jok’Air who will say the opposite. In concert at the Accor Arena for his “Or noir” tour, on March 14 and 15, the former had the spotlight stolen by one of his dancers, Nosiiila, who twerked live with a luminous anal plug in the rear end, causing indignation on social networks (friends of good taste…). A few weeks earlier, the second came out his music video FTB in which a vixen with long blue hair fanning out along the busy rue Montorgueil, in the 2e arrondissement of Paris, using her nudity as clickbait.
