After Julien Doré, "We took advantage of it...": why Virginie Efira and Niels Schneider are at odds with their neighbors and even President Emmanuel Macron, "Les Rencontres du Papotin" adds an additional name to the list of its guests this Saturday, April 22.
The actress Josiane Balasko came to answer questions from atypical journalists.
“I am 72 years old, I could be the mother and maybe even the grandmother of some of you.
It's the first time that I'm going to respond to so many journalists at the same time”
declares the actress when she introduces herself at the start of the show.

The principle of the “Rencontres du Papotin” is now known to viewers.
Questions abound, no subject is taboo and you can go from a career memory to a question about private life without transition, but always with honesty.
And it is the family of Josiane Balasko who is of particular interest to the journalists of Papotin.
Two children, Marilou and Rudy
Josiane Balako has two children.
Marilou Berry, born in 1983 and who also became an actress as well as a son Rudy.
Born in 1988, it was at the age of three that he was adopted by Josiane Balasko and the sculptor Philippe Berry.
“It's different in the sense that the child, he's all done.
It's already done, we have more to do”
begins to explain the actress.
"I already had a daughter, I wanted to have another child, but I couldn't have children so we went to the DDASS to apply for adoption"
then tells Josiane Balasko to the assembly.
She details:
“It takes a year, there is a long file because you don't adopt a child like you adopt a dog, it's more complicated.
And then, one day I was given Rudy's photo and I fell in love with Rudy
.
Before arriving at his home, Rudy was in foster care
“when he was one year old, two years old, until we adopted him.
She wasn't like a mom, but she was a wonderful person
.
Today, his son Rudy
"he's a big one"
lovingly comments Josiane Balasko.
