After the success of the third season of the comedy show, “LOL: who laughs, comes out!
“, developed by Amazon Prime Video, a new edition seems to be emerging.
Since then, the predictions are going well to know the future faces of season 4. But one thing is certain, the actress Blanche Gardin will not be part of it.
She explains, at length, the reasons for her choice and expresses her dissatisfaction (see her anger) on her Facebook account.
“I am sorry to have to refuse your invitation to participate in the next season of the game “LOL: Who laughs comes out! broadcast on your Amazon platform. I understood that it was only a single day of shooting, only here, that day, I have a dentist. And, as the third richest person in the world, you know, it takes good, long teeth to succeed in this world.

for season 4
She continues her speech by attacking the platform, the television program (and the former participants in passing) on the remuneration granted.
"It also happens that I would be embarrassed to the bones (not to say that it would really hurt my ass) to be paid 200,000 euros for a day's work even if I lose at your game, when the charity of my choice would win 50,000 euros, that is to say 4 times less, and again, only if I win.
"I caress the slightly crazy dream"
After addressing the subject of earnings, she attacks the very values of the parent company, Amazon, led by the American billionaire.
“
Yes, it bothers me to receive, for 8 hours of work, this maddening sum from a company which does not pay its taxes in France and even benefits from 1 billion euros in tax credits while 'it makes 50 billion euros in turnover,'
begins Blanche Gardin before continuing to list the black spots of the American giant.
There passes the 55.8 million tons of greenhouse gases emitted per year, the workforce of the Uyghur concentration camps, the destruction of jobs in petty trade and all the social life that goes with it.

"All this for what ? So we could order cheap diapers from our couch scratching our balls. Yes, it bothers me."
The actress and director takes the opportunity to bounce back on the future of cinema.
“As an actress and author of films, I cherish the slightly crazy dream that my future projects could be released in a cinema.
I am well aware that the level of cognitive dissonance is very high these days, but you will agree that to advertise your platform (since that is what it is I believe) would be to shoot me a bullet in the foot.
I don't want that in ten years no one will go to the cinema and that we'll all be watching series on the sofa
The comedian ends his acid monologue by addressing Jeff Bezos directly:
"If, however, reading me, you fell from the clouds, or from space (I don't know your schedule these days) by discovering things that you weren't aware of and that pain you, and it makes you want to completely rethink your business, so maybe you could invite me back later.
And that I could accept.
Lol."
His message seems to resonate with his subscribers.
Just three hours after posting her post, she garnered nearly 50,000 likes and 18,000 shares.
