Anger continues to grow as the Patrick Bruel affair grows bigger every day. On June 10, after 48 hours in police custodythe 67-year-old singer was indicted for rape, attempted rape, sexual assault and sexual harassment and placed under judicial supervision. A legal decision which was welcomed by the alleged victims, while the artist still denies the facts with which he is accused and remains presumed innocent.
Now back home, the interpreter of Break your voice cannot, however, resume its activities, even if nothing legally prohibits it from doing so. But faced with the testimonies and new complaints that are accumulating, it is impossible for him to envisage a return to the stage. Excluded from the next edition of the Enfoirés shows, he had also made the decision to cancel the concerts he was due to give at festivals this summer, as well as his shows in Paris until this fall. He was then going to begin his tour celebrating the 35th anniversary of the release of the album So look.
Demonstrators angry against the continuation of Patrick Bruel’s fall tour
This Tuesday, June 16, Patrick Bruel was to launch his major series of concerts at the Cirque d’Hiver, in Paris, to perform his greatest hits like Place of great men or even J’te l’dis quand même. A show canceled but which nonetheless brought together people in front of the Parisian venue. As reported The Parisian, around fifty demonstrators gathered to celebrate the cancellationsupport the complainants, but above all demand the cancellation of the rest of the tour of Oscar and Léon’s dad. Not all dates have been canceled since the fall tour, which will begin on October 2 at the Coliseum of Chartres, is currently still maintained.
A potential return to the stage which promises to be complicated for Amanda Sthers’ ex. “Il it is will be able to not occur, on it is the will leave not faire, on it is the will let go not. L‘ère of the attackers is over“, assured the daily Youlie Yamamoto, spokesperson for Attac France, which co-organized the manifestation. The Parisian revealed that other gatherings are expected during this toured if the dates were to be maintained.
A career on pause for Patrick Bruel
If Patrick Bruel has moved away from the stage, his career in the media is also at a standstill. While Nagui decided to remove the star’s songs from his show Don’t forget the words, RFM decided to do the same in its playlist. A choice also made by other radio stations. “With the decision of the public prosecutor’s office, Patrick Bruel has definitively moved from an artist whom we receive without worry to the news box. And clearly, we won’t be able to go back. No one can pass Break your voice or So look looks like nothing ! If he ends up being cleared, we will have to review our positions. But in the meantime, it’s over. Our listeners would not forgive us. Just look at the letters we have been receiving for weeks. A third defends it, the rest asks us to delete it everywhere“, had confided a representative of a major national radio station in the columns of Parisianon June 11. The singer now has a very damaged public image.
