Host Cyril Hanouna, in 2019. - PIERRE-OLIVIER / C8

We knew it wasn't the crazy love between the two animators. But this weekend, Cyril Hanouna and Arthur copiously insulted each other on social networks. Criticisms on audiences, attacks on the physical…, the two heavyweights of the French audiovisual landscape, followed by millions of Internet users, clashed badly on Twitter.

It was the host of C8 who was the first to draw his attention by criticizing the audiences carried out by his rival's broadcast on TF1. In a tweet posted on Saturday, “Baba” shared an article relaying the “small score” of Friday everything is allowed audience  presented by Arthur this Friday August 14th. “It's fucking hot! It's freaking out for the start of the school year these scores on TF1, ”he wrote in particular.

Hot C Put1! These scores on TF1 are freaking out for the start of the school year! We will work hard with the teams so as not to disappoint you! I know you are demanding more and more and you are right! We will do everything to do our best❤️ https://t.co/YCvypD6eZY

It did not take more to react the host of TF1 who in turn tweeted arguing that these figures, although a little low, were always higher than those of his rival on C8. "1.9 [million] and 22 frda [audience share] are figures that you have never done in your entire career," Arthur wrote in particular.

Even with a PS2 released as a bonus, even on August 14 in a heatwave, 1M9 and 22frda are numbers that you have never done in your entire career. I don't blame you because I know you love me. I kiss you hard and am proud to count you among my biggest fans ❤️ https://t.co/uSKYrFxMtf

"Brother is going to play sports, you're all flabby, it looks like a blank!" "

Visibly annoyed, the presenter of C8 then put on a layer, this time attacking the physique of his colleague, comparing him to a blank… "Go and redo hair implants and go do a little sport to firm everything up. That and we'll talk to each other at the start of the school year ”, he first tweeted, then added“ Brother is going to play sports, you're all flabby, it looks like a blank! Today your day is sport and implants! "

Go go have hair implants again and do a little sport to firm it all up and we'll talk to each other at the start of the school year❤️ https://t.co/5yNUIsLNx8

The exchanges, or rather the invectives, between the two star hosts continued, each message generating numerous comments of support and insults from the followers of each of the presenters.

"What a sad example we have given"

The tension then eased, the two hosts whistling the end of the fight. "Well, I embrace you strong and long live the darka and benevolence", one wrote, the other responding to him "I too love you and come join the darka (...) End of the story".

The host of TF1 returned this Sunday to the tense exchange he had with Cyril Hanouna. “This morning, I responded to yet another provocation on the networks. I should not have. I never answer. Looking back, I find it pathetic (…) What a sad example we gave this morning. I deviated from my motto, ”wrote Arthur in particular on his Instagram account.

Dear all, This morning I responded to yet another provocation on the networks. The famous drop of water ... I shouldn't have. I never answer. Looking back I find this pathetic. At a time when COVID-19 paralyzes the world, where Lebanon is counting its dead, people everywhere are marching in the streets for the right to exist, at a time when our country is going through an unprecedented crisis, j responded to insults addressed to me. It's inappropriate . It doesn't look like me and it's not the image I want to return. Because of my answer I had the right to insults on my physique, my weight, my hair. You know me, I don't care, but I don't forget that children suffer from this form of bullying every day, and for them I am even more sorry. What a sad example we set this morning. I deviated from my motto. Silence is the best of contempt. Have a nice week end . Arthur
