A few days after Blanche Gardin’s development, comedian and actor Fabrice Éboué also announced that he had refused to participate in the show “LOL: who laughs, comes out!”, on Amazon Prime Video.
Comedian Fabrice Éboué explained the reasons for his refusal to participate in the program “LOL: who laughs, comes out!”, Presented by Philippe Lacheau, on Amazon Prime Video in an interview with Latest News from Alsace (DNA).
A little over a week after Blanche Gardin’s scathing statement, notably accusing the broadcaster of “not paying his taxes in France” and denouncing huge fees, Fabrice Éboué explained that he was not “running after money “. “I was offered to participate in LOL, I said: never in life. I wouldn’t have felt comfortable on that show. It’s not my type of humor and I don’t run after money, I make a very good living, “launched the director and actor of Case Départ, released in 2011.
“I consider myself an artist. There are people who are into entertainment, it’s a choice, and there are those who represent the one man show as an artistic entity. I believe that my job as an artist is to put on the best show possible, that’s what I want to deliver to people,” said Fabrice Éboué.
The native of Maisons-Alfort (Val-de-Marne), however, refrained from criticizing the American platform. “I am very good friends with Blanche but I have some discrepancies with what she said. My show is on Amazon Prime Video, but whether you’re on this broadcaster or another, it’s the same, believes Fabrice Éboué. You can choose to be absolute anti-system by doing without broadcasting platforms and there okay, but that’s not my case. We all need a broadcaster, it’s give and take, conceded the 45-year-old artist.
