According to information from “Le Parisien”, Slimane will not be present at the Enfoirés next week for rehearsals and recordings. The troupe, made up of nearly 300 artists, will be on stage from January 14 to 20 at the Sud de France Arena, near Montpellier.

Le Le Parisien put forward two versions. One official:
Slimane will not be present because he will be on an international tour and therefore cannot perform all of the Enfoirés shows (including the first ones, which serve as rehearsals and are not filmed for the show on TF1), as he is keen to do.
The other unofficial one
Unofficially, the Restos du cœur have excluded him this year so as not to make waves, in a show where the artists multiply the collegial songs, but also to avoid finding themselves in the same complicated logistical situation as a year ago, where one of the two complainants was part of the technical team and obviously did not want to meet him backstage.
However, the world tour of Slimane will only start on January 23 at Berlin, three days after the end of the concerts of Bastard. Recall that it is Slimane who had signed the anthem of the Bastard “Now” in 2021 and that he had become an essential artist of the institution.
