His name is associated with
"Koh-Lanta"
and many reality shows.
On March 10, 2017 on TF1, viewers discovered
Dylan Thiry
for the first time , a very confident 22-year-old Luxembourger who came to confront the adventure game dressed in a Gucci shirt and moccasins.
If his adventure in Cambodia had lasted only three days, the time to be eliminated at the first council by teammates exasperated by his behavior, he had succeeded in his bet not to go unnoticed.
A year later, when he was preparing to participate in the "Angels of reality TV", the ALP teams had managed to convince him to return to the adventure game in the all-star edition "Koh- Lanta, the fight of the heroes”.

The following are successive appearances in "The Princes of Love", "The Battle of Couples" or "The Villa of Broken Hearts" where he increases his notoriety, mechanically increases his number of subscribers on his social networks and, like most of his reality TV colleagues, monetizes his audience through product placements.
For six years, Dylan Thiry has been best known for his polemics, his media stunts and his bizarre stories.
From his first television appearance, he invents a life as a real estate agent in his portrait of "Koh-Lanta" without ever having been, he claims to be the face of the Italian brand Gucci and imagines a title of Mister Luxembourg which never existed.
In 2018, he sowed discord within the cast of "Koh-Lanta,
the fight of the heroes” by telling in “Do not touch my post!
“to have received 20,000 euros more than the other candidates.
Target of several complaints for "breach of trust"
Until then, all these fabrications gave rise to a smile, but Dylan Thiry will go further by lending himself to more than dubious product placements.
At the beginning of 2020, before settling in Dubai, he was at the heart of a controversy over the marketing of wireless headphones that hundreds of consumers paid for without ever receiving anything.
The damage is considerable.
A year later, he is suspected of taking part in fraudulent humanitarian missions in Africa.
A few weeks ago, five people, accompanied by the Collectif d'aide aux victims d'influenceurs (AVI), announced that they had filed a complaint against the 28-year-old Luxembourger for "breach of trust".
They accuse him of having embezzled money collected in the form of cyber pots with his humanitarian association.

Faced with each attack, Dylan Thiry always has the answer to everything even if he actually has the answer to nothing.
Skilled in front of the camera and the media, the charismatic influencer uses and abuses these means of communication to try to convince the most gullible.
The latest controversy is his recent trip to Turkey where he says he came to the aid of earthquake victims.
In “Le 19/45” on M6, video extracts show him staging himself in the middle of the rubble during the day and ending up in a luxury hotel in the evening.
In his fight against what he called "influvoleurs", rapper Booba regularly pins Dylan Thiry to highlight his misconduct.
He is particularly delighted with the recent dissolution of the association For our children, which Dylan used to collect donations.
“You have gone too far.
[...] Turkey was your last shot
, he wrote on Twitter.
The adventure stops for you.
Audrey, creator of the Instagram account Your stars in reality, lists all the scams in the world of influence and devoted a long portrait to Dylan, calling him a “big-
hearted usurper”
.
In a new video posted Tuesday on his YouTube account, Dylan Thiry organized a question and answer session in which he orchestrates his own defense.
"I am sincere in everything I do, no one can stop me from helping others,"
he says in conclusion after having, once again, answered everything.
And to nothing.
