Revealed by La France a un incredible talent, the indescribable creator of La Cheu-Cheu and the Chenille School Academy is Éric Antoine’s playing partner in Le Juste Prix, Monday to Friday at 5:25 p.m. on M6.
When were you offered to join the adventure of Right price ?
Vincent Piguet: I got along very well with the Fremantle team on France has an unbelievable talent. They liked my energy on stage and off, and saw that I had skills in terms of animation. It was a month and a half after the show. At the time, I was in the middle of a media storm with The Cheu-Cheu.(Laughs.) Thanks to this sudden notoriety, I had a lot of requests. I had to structure myself and it was great to have this other offer!
How would you define your role in the game?
I am a little Gérard Vivès ofEric Antoine, without the pectorals. Even if they won’t take long to arrive, given our work rates! The problem is that the canteen is very good… But my charm lies in my mustache, my headband and my glasses. (Laughs.) More seriously, I’m the one who introduces the candidates and the objects, and Eric’s sniper co-host.
Is it difficult to find your bearings with the troublemaker? Eric Antoine?
No, it’s ultra-easy because it has the elegance to leave me space. Everything happens with benevolence and kindness. He’s a real pro, I learn a lot by watching him. In addition, the set is super beautiful, the craze for The right price hasn’t changed and I feel good about what I’m doing.
Your Cheu-Cheu will it experience variations?
I just did a slightly different remix for the clubs and I’m thinking about other ideas for a future album. You could also find me at some big sporting and cultural events this summer… And I would like that The Cheu-Cheu become a series or a film.
How does your family view your journey and your artistic craziness?
I have three older sisters. I was their little darling and they have known for a long time that I have this ability to bring people together. For them, it’s obvious. And I, at 50, consider that I am finally aligned with who I am. As for my three children, they are also quite proud. My daughter, who left for Australia before everything broke out around The Cheu-Cheu,is a bit on the butt!
