Among the measures announced yesterday by Prime Minister Jean Castex, the ban on concerts revolts artists, especially since political meetings are not restricted.

Julien Doré, Hoshi or even Jarry therefore reacted ... by announcing their candidacy for the presidential election. 

The artists laugh yellow.

Monday evening, Jean Castex announced the ban on standing concerts from January 3 and for at least three weeks.

A rule that affects the tours of many artists, even though it does not apply to political meetings.

On social networks, Julien Doré, Jarry, Hoshi, or even Eddy de Pretto reacted by announcing their candidacy for the presidential election ...

"In meeting"

Singers and comedians therefore prefer to laugh about it than to cry.

They get into politics to get on stage.

Julien Doré thus shared a photo of the dates of his tour with the mention "in concert" replaced by "in meeting".

The singer had already tweeted Monday evening: "The measures announced do not apply for political meetings".

The humorist Jarry meanwhile tweeted "From now on, my show becomes a political rally! No gauge, Jarry president". 

Here I declare myself!

Singer Hoshi posted a photomontage of her face on the official portrait of Emmanuel Macron.

Some artists also invite the spectators to come with a folding chair in the pit of the rooms.

More seriously, behind the joke, our artists express their fed up and their incomprehension, their weariness too.
