For him, Sandrine Rousseau is not the woman of the 80s who was both sensual and modest, a bit of a banker, a bit Messalina, and mistress of the system he once dreamed of.
And worse than that, in her eyes, she is guilty of a terrible thing, she has "
deconstructed
" her husband.
In an interview with Alain Marschall and Olivier Truchot of BFMTV, Michel Sardou, the cantor of the
Bals Populaires
, called for a march to save the companion of the feminist leader of the Greens who, if we are to believe his words, must suffer hell at home.
Since announcing his big comeback on stage in the fall of 2023, the son of Fernand and Jackie Sardou has rediscovered the sharp verve that once earned him his fame, but also the reprimands of the left who did not like his banter more populist than popular in his eyes.
Knowing this, the two BFMTV journalists immediately directed their questions to neo-feminist movements and its most vehement hobbyhorse, #MeToo, illustrating their comments with portraits of Sandrine Rousseau and Anne Hidalgo.
Far from directly opposing this new women's fight, Michel Sardou defended the idea that with his song
Being a Woman,
he had behaved in a certain way like a pioneer: “
What I say in the song happened!
I don't know if the salaries are all equal, but I think it must have worked out... They are in politics and lead demonstrations.
They are there, they are alive!
".

On the other hand, the “
deconstruction
” advocated by Sandrine Rousseau does not seem to amuse her at all.
The concept even seems at odds with its values.
The virility of yesteryear, too abrupt, even reactionary in the eyes of the passionaria suits him perfectly.
At home, ancillary services and other household chores do not bother him at all.
He claims it: “
Oh no!
I don't vacuum, I don't do anything.... I cook, only special dishes for holidays.
I am not deconstructed at all and I do not want to be deconstructed
”.

Times having therefore changed, the one who defended Le France yesterday found another cause: he wants to save the husband of Sandrine Rousseau.
In a very controversial scansion, the singer appealed to the French: “
The poor, frankly.
Shouldn't we take a walk to help this poor guy?
My poor boy what did you stumble upon!
It's hell
”.
Moving forward, moving forward... as always for Sardou!
