Almost a year ago, Jean-Michel Maire revealed his autobiography entitled Memoirs of a happy loser. In this work, the chronicler of Do not touch My TV looked back on his many experiences as a journalist, but also on some of his dark sides such as his setbacks with drugs and alcohol. “At the time, which I no longer do at all, I was less aware than today of the dangers that we can represent both for ourselves, but also for others. So, it’s true that it was rare for me to be able to say to myself: ‘Don’t take your car, you’re going to a place where you’re definitely going to drink a few glasses of wine… you shouldn’t do that,'” he said on the set of the show At Jordan’slast December.
Jean-Michel Maire, former drug addict
This Wednesday, October 4, Jean-Michel Maire returned to his old habits in the evening during a debate on the Pierre Palmade affair in TPMP. “I never hid it, I came out a lot in my life. I frequented Parisian parties and I did too much on all levels“, he confided, before talking about his former drug addiction. “Where it represents a vicious circle is that when you party at night, narcotics excite you, but it also keeps you from sleeping. So if you stop partying at 5 a.m. and you’ve been doing drugs until 5 a.m., you can’t sleep. The problem is that you work the next day and to be in good shape you take substances again so that it is not seen by those around you professionally.. But if you tap again during the day it makes you want to keep typing so you’re back on drugs all day.“

Jean-Marie Bigard returns to the excesses of Pierre Palmade
“It’s at every Parisian party and those who say they’ve never seen it are hypocrites“, added Jean-Michel Maire, who assumes to be “fell in for a while” and who is pleased to have finally come out of it. Faced with this testimony, Jean-Marie Bigard for his part mentioned the excesses of Pierre Palmade, whom he worked with for a long time. “Pierre’s problem is the stop sign. We told him, we told him again, Muriel Robin and me. They told him: ‘Stop, you’re on the second day, have something, sleep and see if you party again another day’. But it never stopped. I never understood how he could hold up physically. When we met thirty years ago, we said to each other: ‘Pierre Palmade, in two years, he will die’. We really said that to each other.“
