Ceremony of the Flames, known as "of francophone popular cultures", has been much talked about since its first edition Thursday. The arrival of Jack Lang, the former Minister of Culture, provoked strong reactions on Twitter, with sulphurous tweets against him by the hundreds.
The rapper Zola has also been talked about. In a story published on his Snapchat account, the artist films the backstage of the ceremony, then zooms in on his cup. There is a liquid that strongly resembles "lean", a drug produced with codeine-based cough syrup and an antihistamine.
