If you don't know its name yet, it shouldn't last... At only 28 years old, Amine Radi, with his sunny smile, infectious laugh and round face, is establishing himself as the rising comedian. With two million followers on Instagram and 800 million views on the Internet, he first enjoyed himself on the networks. For the past four years, he has been filling bigger and bigger venues: after a visit to the Paris Paradis du Parisien Festival, a Casino de Paris in December, sold out three months before, he continues on a tour, both French — he will be this Sunday in Montpellier (Hérault) — and international, before returning to Paris on April 16 and 17, at La Cigale, with his show "L'Expert humoriste", directly inspired by his life.
