In a vitriolic text shared on her Facebook account, Blanche Gardin attacks the streaming giant Amazon Prime Video, which contacted her to participate in its hit series "LOL: Who laughs, comes out!". With her sense of formula, the comedian explains that she would be "embarrassed" to touch 200,000 euros for eight hours of shooting. She then denounces the practices of Jeff Bezos' company.

Blanche Gardin steps up to the plate... In a text shared on Facebook Thursday, April 20, 2023, the comedian, known for his outspokenness, targeted the streaming giant Amazon Prime Video. The star did not appreciate at all being approached by the platform to participate in the next season of the hit series LOL: Who laughs, comes out! And she made it known in a very cash way!

Blanche Gardin embarrassed to receive 200,000 euros for eight hours of filming

In her message, Blanche Gardin speaks directly to the boss of Amazon, Jeff Bezos. "I understood that it was only one day of shooting, only now, that day, I have a dentist. And, as the world's third-richest, you know, it takes good long teeth to succeed in this world," she begins with her sense of humor as biting as ever.

The comedian goes on to explain that she would be very "embarrassed to be paid 200,000 euros for a day's work, when the charity of her choice would earn, it, 50,000 euros, that is to say 4 times less (and only if she wins)".

A company that "doesn't pay its taxes in France"

Blanche Gardin then denounces Amazon's practices. "Yes, it bothers me to receive, for eight hours of work, this staggering sum from a company that: does not pay its taxes in France, [...] who uses labor from Uyghur concentration camps," the comedian said.

She ends her text with vitriol by assuring that if Jeff Bezos reads it and discovers "things he was not aware of [...] and that it makes him want to completely rethink his business, so maybe he can invite it back later." And that she will agree to participate in LOL.
