Jean-Marie Bigard says a little more about his political ambitions. “I know nothing about politics in it. I never wanted to do it. I would be torn apart if I returned to the field. I prefer to shout in the stands, "he said in an interview with Society magazine published on June 11.
"I let the pressure cooker heat over low heat to know how many people would be behind me if it happened, but for the moment it is not up to date," he assured while confirming his desire to "render service to the people".
Called by Macron
The comedian had indicated at the end of May on BFMTV that he could be “interested” in a presidential candidacy of 2022 to “represent the people” outside of political parties. Asked about a possible candidacy, the 66-year-old actor replied: "It could if it could help the people to have a sincere voice that would not belong to any political party. Yes, that could tempt me ”.
The comedian recently supported the list of the showman Marcel Campion in the municipal elections of Paris, which obtained only 0.40% of the votes. He had been talked about by revealing that he had been called by Emmanuel Macron after having challenged him, by video, on the reopening of bars and restaurants.
"By me, in fact, it is addressed to the people"
"As he [the president] has a little trouble speaking directly to the people, he addresses me, and through me in fact he addresses the people," he explained on the news channel, because he knows that the video I made to the president made eight million views. It is enormous. "
"When a guy represents the people, the people a little angry, well we call him," he adds. This is why I feel that the "yellow vests" are asking me (…) They say to themselves "Who will defend us the best?". Very often it is my name that comes up. ”
In 1980, Coluche announced his candidacy for the presidential election the following year. After rising to more than 10% in voting intentions, he had given up a few months before the poll.
