Tensions were at the rendezvous on the set of “Touche pas à mon poste”, this Thursday, May 12. While the subject was centered on the insults profaned against the memory of Emiliano Sala, Gilles Verdez embarked on a war against Gilles Favard… Internet users were scandalized by this settling of accounts and the remarks considered “grossophobic” by the columnist of “TPMP”.
This Thursday, May 12, a new issue of “Do not touch My TV” was presented live by Cyril Hanouna. Like every day of the week, he was accompanied by a handful columnists in order to return to hot news of the last hours. In the program ? The love life of Danielle Moreau, the Hollywood diet prized by all the stars, the controversy surrounding Fabrice Di Vizio, but also the insulting songs of certain OGC Nice supporters against the late player, Emiliano Sala. This terrible controversy was born this Wednesday, May 11, during the victory of OGC Nice against AS Saint-Etienne in Ligue 1. About forty Gym supporters sang a song to make fun of the death of the former Nantes native Emiliano Sala. The lyrics of this song, which hampered the memory of the missing young player, outraged the French, but also the Nice club.

To discuss this particularly delicate and scandalous subject, the star presenter of C8 called on Gilles Favard, a former consultant for the Team, now “retired”, as he notified. As soon as he entered the set of “Do not touch My TV”, tensions were felt, some columnists not appreciating his presence… And while he expressed his anger against the supporters and their abject songs, as well as the leaders of the Nice club, Gilles Verdez cut off the floor. Outraged by the guest’s comments, he began to defend these supporters. In a few seconds, the subject deviated and turned into a debate between the two “Gilles”. They ended up yelling at each other, and settling their accounts live on old subjects.
“How disrespectful”
For Internet users, this scene was just “incredible” as it was so violent. But what outraged them the most was the “disrespect” of Gilles Verdez, as they shared on Twitter. For them, the main subject, which was the degradation of the memory of Emiliano Sala, was completely forgotten and put aside. Faced with this “absurd” and “disrespectful” sequence, Twittos expressed their indignation.
“Grossophobic” remarks
The war between Gilles Verdez and Gilles Favard had nothing to do with the initial subject and went very far. Moreover, the two men insulted each other and the columnist of Cyril Hanouna attacked the physicality of the guest. “Your big nose,” he began, and continued. “And you with your big belly”, he also swung. Comments deemed “grossophobic” and “inadmissible” which scandalized Internet users.
Finally, after the ad, Cyril Hanouna briefly returned to the subject, but the tone once again rose between the two men.
