INTERVIEW

Like a thorn in the side for ten years.

For the second time in a decade, a racist letter posted on Facebook and supposedly written by Michel Sardou resurfaces.

But the singer again claims not to be the author.

"It is not at all my text", he insists at the microphone of Europe 1. 

One complaint in 2015 and 2020 

Shared 15,000 times since October 7, this post was however published in 2010 on a Quebec site, as reported by the AFP verification service.

"Sardou, he is not in the lace. Me, Islam, I do not care the shell. I do not care hadiths, suras and other coranias (...) We do not want their religion, we does not want their values, we do not want their customs, we do not want their vision of the world ", we can read in particular. 

Five years later, the text resurfaces, but Michel Sardou decides to crack down and files a complaint.

"The cyber gendarmerie located the author in Abidjan, so there was little we could do."

The situation then calmed down, until the chopper attack in Paris near the

Charlie Hebdo

And the singer to specify that he has "no account on social networks".
