"On the poster, you are in a bathing suit, cockades on your breast, tiara on your head. And thanks to this show, you will dine with Valérie Giscard d'Estaing", Lisa-Marie Marques launches to Camille Chamoux.

"Exactly", answers the actress and humorist.

"He showed up. His secretary called a week earlier, we had organ failure!"

"When the show came out, he was a rock star"

“Valéry Giscard d'Estaing came with his daughter and he reacted really well,” says Camille Chamoux. "He didn't laugh loudly, but he smiled the whole show. And after that he offered to go to dinner. But first, he took some selfies at the exit of the show. C he was a rock star, he was so happy! There were all the girls of my generation, and he played the selfie game in a very funny way. "

The actress and the former President of the Republic will then have dinner. "I was very curious," recalls Camille Chamoux. "I had a lot, a lot of things to ask him, I wanted him to tell me about Simone Veil, Françoise Giroud, how he integrated women into his government… He had this image of a patriarch, but ultimately, He's made huge strides in. He has that kind of old-fashioned image, when really he's a guy who has changed society quite profoundly.
