In Taratata 100% live This Friday, September 29, Nagui notably received Vanessa Paradis and Étienne Daho, regulars of the show. On set, the 50-year-old singer returned to a bad moment spent with a famous singer during rehearsals for Nagui’s show.
This Friday, September 29, Nagui still received beautiful people in Taratata 100% live. Vanessa Paradis and Étienne Daho were thus present on set. The two regulars of the France 2 musical show presented their song as a duet, Shoot the stars at night. This tribute to icons Ava Gardner and Frank Sinatra is included in the singer’s album.

The singer of Joe the cab notably remembered a very unpleasant experience with an Anglo-Saxon star.

Disconcerted, the singer, then 21 years old, drew the necessary conclusions. “I thought he didn’t want to be there at all and I could understand that too but it was very, very hard.” During the show that followed, Willy DeVille completely changed his attitude, this time looking exaggeratedly at his scene partner, encouraging her, seeking connivance and complicity. But for Vanessa Paradis, it was too late. She didn’t let herself be fooled: “I think that there, it was me who acted a little bit, I didn’t look at him, I was angry“, Lily-Rose Depp’s mother confided to the host of France 2, to the laughter of her friend Étienne Daho. Revenge is a dish best served cold !
