  • France Télévisions denied claims that it spent between €1.2 million and €1.4 million to broadcast Lena Situations’ show on France 2.
  • The figures came from Raymond Aabou, a commentator on Cyril Hanouna’s programme, and were immediately questioned by other commentators.
  • The programme, “Celui où ils disent au revoir,” is scheduled to air on France 2 on September 12 at 11:25 p.m.

France Télévisions has rejected claims that it paid between €1.2 million and €1.4 million for the rights to rebroadcast Lena Situations’ show on France 2.

The allegation came from Raymond Aabou, whose real name is Cyril Aabou, a commentator on Cyril Hanouna’s programme “Tout beau, tout n9uf.” During the September 1 broadcast, he said the public broadcaster had paid what he described as an enormous sum for the show, “Celui où ils disent au revoir.”

Other commentators on the programme immediately questioned the figures. The dispute concerns the rebroadcast scheduled for September 12 at 11:25 p.m., shortly after the 28-year-old YouTuber celebrated the end of her August vlogs in front of 20,000 people at Bercy.

This concert, hold on tight, was bought for 1.2 or even 1.4 million by France Télévisions.
