When accused of plagiarism by YouTuber CopyComic, Gad Elmaleh took advantage of the bad media buzz to determine who his real friends were.

During and after the controversy, he apparently fell out with a number of people who were not on his side when he needed them most.

“It's really behind me.

And it saved me time on the people I meet ", he explained to the

Parisian

, before specifying:" The cliché: you know where your friends are when you experience something, well it's true.

I also learned to forgive.

Forgive yourself, forgive those who knocked you out.

We all took advantage, me the first, of a news to make a good note.

Afterwards, forgiving does not mean reconciling.

There are friends, directors, comedians, people I no longer see.

And it doesn't matter.

"

No honorable fine

The comedian gives no name, but he never really agreed to make amends in the face of accusations that he stole several jokes or lines from some of his favorite comedians, including Jerry Seinfeld.

In 2019, he even explained to the

Parisian that

he had

no regrets.

“So I took inspiration from them.

OK, agreed.

What to do now

Is there a confessional for comedians?

I would not do it again, but I do not regret it because I have never been in a malicious process, ”he said.

Gad Elmaleh is due to go on tour again from January 13th until April.
