In a humorous chronicle on France Inter, Camille Lorente sang a deadly parody involving Jordan Bardella and Marion Maréchal, in a satirical take on French monarchy. Dressed in Louis XIV-era attire, she targeted the Rassemblement National during a show in Rouen, drawing laughs from the audience but backlash on social media.
Camille Lorente's chronicle aired on Zoom Zoom Zen, hosted by Matthieu Noël, was recorded on January 30 in Rouen at the auditorium of the Chapelle Corneille. Dressed in a gown and white wig reminiscent of Louis XIV, the humorist joined the promotion of the musical Le Roi Soleil with guests Kamel Ouali and Emmanuel Moire.
Her segment, themed around French monarchy, opened with tales of kings' tragic fates, such as Louis XV spared by measles or Louis XVI benefiting from his brother's tuberculosis. She mocked natural selection over universal suffrage: « Why bother with universal suffrage when natural selection works just as well. Fuck voting rights, let's bring back the plague! ».
The critique then turned to the Rassemblement National: « Let's throw typhus-infested lice at the RN headquarters and see what's left! », she quipped, eliciting laughs and applause from the audience. To emphasize, she parodied the hit Je fais de toi mon essentiel: « Jordan has a fatal smallpox, it'll kill him in three days. Jordan has a fatal smallpox and Marion Maréchal has the same symptoms. If you want, we'll finish her off ».
Kamel Ouali responded: « I want to stage this show ». Camille Lorente added: « That's a show I want to see. If I can play in it, even better. ».
The bit sparked strong online reactions. One user questioned: « Is it allowed to wish death on Jordan Bardella and Marion Maréchal? ». Another urged the Arcom: « Do you intend to intervene on France Inter for these hateful words? ».
