Episode topic: Malik Bentalha discusses style and aging, childhood food memories, weight gain/loss, depression and burnout, and how he manages health, diet, and skincare—plus a humorous “talc” anecdote about pores/skin.
Malik Bentalha (French comedian/actor; known for humor and for openly discussing mental health; describes a past period of depression/burnout and later weight loss through sport and diet). Nora Mzaoui (host of “En Apparence”; interviews Malik and prompts topics like fashion, mental health, and skincare).
Depression can occur without an obvious reason; humor helps make mental health talk approachable. Weight changes are tied to isolation and comfort eating; sport works step-by-step and results motivate. Health access is unequal (“medicine at two speeds”). Skincare is minimal—mainly creams to “soften pores.”
France 98 nostalgia; “Smacks” cereal vs other brands; intermittent fasting-like routine; starting sport after reaching ~120 kg; Prozac use; “talc” as a “doudou” ritual.

1:28Hello, it's Nora Mzaoui and you're listening to in appearance. Thank you again for everything. The invitation that I receive today, I must say, I don't know personally, even if we talked about 25 minutes before we recorded this podcast, so I'm going to know it. But what I'm most struck by him is his gentleness and his politeness when we're approaching different projects. I love his sincerity, his way of talking joyously about mental health, of weight, of gravity, with legality, as for better to save him. I'm very happy to receive Malik Bentala. Salut Malik. Salut Nora, merci pour cette belle intro.
1:58Mais je t 'en prie avec grand plaisir. Malik, tu sais que c 'est donc un podcast qui s 'appelle En Apparence. Les gens nous regardent, mais parfois ils nous écoutent. D 'ailleurs, on m 'a beaucoup dit, ce serait bien que tu décrives ce que tu vois et tout. Tu es extrêmement stylé. Alors, j 'ai hésité, je suis venue, je ne savais pas quel Malik allait venir. Je suis en Alain Delon. Est-ce que je fais le petit bobo parisien ? Je viens un petit peu en fursac, sans chaussettes, avec des petites mocasses. Tu fais ça ? Je ne peux pas croire. Si ? Tu fais mocassin sans chaussettes ? I was going to Italy at the time and I was really in a nightmare.
2:30The first time in my life I was going to be at Positano and I was going to be dressed in my head. I was in Armani. But you're great. I'm adapting to the place where I go. And then I was thinking, you're a contract, you're a stylé. Because I think you're a me of a contract, you're a stylé. You're adorable. I think you're a contract, you're a stylé. Moi, I'm sure. When I look at the quotidien, I find you a contract, you're a stylé. It's true. It's not bad as a compliment, non? I think it's cool. It's a drôle, a contract, you're a stylé. It's a drôle, évidemment. Franchement, it's not to you. Evidemment, on a oublié cette partie-là.
2:56La fille ne veut être que flattée sur son physique. Elle a fait mauvais podcast. Je n 'aurais pas imaginé que tu avais des mocas. Mais tu les mets encore, les mocas sans chaussettes ? Ça fait mal. Je ne sais pas comment les gens font pour mettre des mocas. Mettre des compites derrière, non ? Oui, mais même devant la largeur. Mon pied n 'est pas habitué aux mocas. Et je me dis qu 'il va falloir que je m 'habille en adéquation avec mon âge à un moment. Attends, tu as quel âge ? Je viens d 'avoir 37. OK. C 'est vrai que c 'est un âge bâtard. comment on s 'habille à 37 ans. Oui, tu approches les 40, mais moi, j 'ai toujours voulu, quand j 'avais 20, je regardais les mecs de 37, 38 et les mecs qui s 'habillaient en casquette, jogging et tout, je les trouvais stylés.
3:34Je me disais, putain, c 'est cool, ils ne font pas leur âge. Et je pense qu 'il y a une bascule qui s 'opère à 40, pas loin des 50, c 'est -à-dire 45, 46. Là, il faut commencer à raisonner un peu en... Je trouve que ça dépend parce que si tu es encore à 45, 46, sweatshirt, casquette, truc, tant que tu ne collectionnes pas toys and you don't go out in skate. Yeah, yeah, it's so. It's not that you're not caught in the ring of Carrefour to read the manga. It's right. Yeah, of course. But after, in fact, everything is possible without the people who read the manga. It depends. In fact, it's funny.
4:04It's all right with a subject which is maybe the subject of our life. To be able to be aligned with your own. I was going to say the manga. No. But if you want to read the manga, read the manga, on s 'en fout. In fact, it's to do what we want to do. You want to put a mask, a jogging. What you want. Yeah, I try to get out of the regard of the others. and I arrive sometimes. Sometimes it comes to the top, but I arrive at the more and more. There's something interesting, you talked about 45, 46, and the age that we have, the clothes that we wear. And I was like, with my own, we have always the impression that we're doing much more young than the other parents.
4:34It's the age, I think it's the generation, you're the same generation that I think. I'm 42. Yes, we are club Dorothée. Yes. Yes, generation club. I think, everyone will say that to their own generation, but I think we're the best. The millennials. Why? because we had known the world before internet and we had known the world with internet and we were not going to pass neither by the one nor by the other we were at that between the two we had to have been we had to be ennui at the house when our parents said to go home go to lock, go to sleep, don't let go we were all together we were all together we were all together to do a cabana and now today the young generation it's what I wanted to say today the parents are going to for they get out and they take the stuff out they let the audio they let the cables they let the screens exactly so we we are at that between the two the world with internet, the world without internet.
5:19Alors que the generation before us is a little over the net. And the generation after us has not known the world without internet. You're nostalgic a little bit, of the avant internet? In fact, I know something, it's a very weird thing. When I tell people, I don't want to be replonged in the photos of souvenirs. Ah oui, moi aussi. Ah, but I'm not a good one. It's a good one for the day. I don't want to see my parents young. I try to be able to to be able to see the image they are at the instant T. because I didn't want to compare and say they were good, they didn't have a problem in health, they were top I want to say they are top now and they make the image they are now but it's rather a joyous I prefer it that people who are so nostalgic who are watching it I think it's cool you look at the photos, the souvenirs I have a lot of pain but also I think because I'm more happy now and also I think I don't always like the person that I was and I don't know And in fact, the thing that I really like, is the relationship with the time.
6:19I had a problem with the internet. I think it was really... It was a very beautiful thing before the internet. Yeah, of course. But there are so many anecdotes. Call me on my fix. And then, the parents who décrochent. Or, at the time, you had, to have, at my point, the millennium. The millennium. Or, at 20 hours, you could call on illimitée. It was with SFF. I remember... In all case, it's marrant that you talk about that. I had even forgotten the forfaits. I remember the forfaits. I remember the forfaits. Because I was in forfaits. Or forfait, I don't know how many. Your parents were going to get on it.
6:47Yeah, of course. But in fact, there was a forfait, I think it was a partir of 20 hours. You could call on illimitée. So, we all waited 20 hours for a coup of fil. In fact, everything was a sense. It's-is that everything you did, you deserved it. For going to see a friend, it was going to take your BMX and go to the house. Maybe he wasn't there. And so, when you saw it, you were happy. There, you wanted to command a thing. All right, Uber Eats. All right, all right. All right, all right. All right, all right. All right, all right. All right, all right. It's not for a long time. But it's true. In addition, I think it's a lot of time.
7:17Because, typically, you talk about Uber Eats. You want to command a thing, you command. Well, I want to command a thing. I open 17 onglets. I look at all the critics Google. You finish by taking the same pizza. What's that I want? Is it Italian? Pareil for the films. The pages... Ah, yeah. Pareil. The interfaces on Netflix. How many times do you search? You search. And then, you're there. It's too late for a film. I'm going to scroll. Yeah, I'm going to scroll. Ah là là ! Et quand tu étais cet ado chez toi, sans portable encore, ou alors avec ton forfait millenium, je ne sais plus comment l 'appeler, tu étais quel genre d 'ado ?
7:53Tu étais habillé comment ? Tu as avec quel style ? Écoute, moi j 'étais un ado plutôt stylé, en surpoids. Donc je m 'habillais chez les adultes, je m 'en rappelle, ça m 'avait marqué. Attends, mais j 'adore ! Donc stylé en surpoids. Ouais, stylé en surpoids. Je compensais le surpoids par le style. and I liked to have a last pair of Nike the last shirt on Lacoste where I was going to be able to get my little clothes I grew up with these brands Bullrotweer, Diacollection, Comete Comete, I remember it was all these brands these brands, these rappers, these 2000 Celicephile, NTM you had all these brands so I was dressed like this and of course, I was amoured to foot I'm from the generation France 98.
8:43So we, the Brésiliens, we were at the mode. We had in the same time Zidane with France, the France football team. We had a 2-3 Soleil. You were on the Champs-Elysées in 98? No, I was from a small town in Avignon. So I was in the south. And of course, I was all over there. I remember I had to ask my mother to kick off. I was going to kick off with her. It was incredible. Everyone was in fête this evening. And as I told you, there was France 98, 1, 2, 3, the sun, the arrival of Jamel Debouze. And then there was the 11th September. Oh yeah, you were direct. I was like, I have a big smile. But because we have this period 97, 18, 19, 2000.
9:24D 'insouciance. D 'insouciance. Where the Maghrebins, you know, you had songs, Rebeu, in the soirées, and then Zizou, and then this tragedy comes to Ben Laden where everyone starts to look at bizarrely and yet we are not at the United States and yet we are not at the United States so it's true that there was a real an avant-après where everyone started to look at in Chiang Faience during 2001 you were still in Avignon I was still still to me but I think if I talk to my parents I think they have felt a difference and the things have changed but yes, I was a girl style and I started to discover the van.
10:05By the habits, by the sap and by the van, I arrived at the table and at the table and at the table. Oh yeah, popular, popular. But it's funny because when you say, in surprise, it's because when you revois the photos, you know it, because you were aware of it at the time, because you told us. A mix of all that, but I would say because because even for my health, I had a meeting at the time. You know, we had a meeting with the doctor, and there was always the doctor who said, attention, there were some curves, I remember, there were graphics, there it was where you should be. and the point is just there.
10:32So it doesn't have to eat three assiettes of pate bolo before going to sleep. And so, we have grown in a culture where I think that in the tien too, it's the same thing. Before we quit a tata, a mamie, we would have to fill the food of food. I had also a toxic mère who told me to not grossize, so you know, it changes a little the donne. But in all cases, my grandmother gave me tablets of Galak. What was that? It was good, Galak. It was good, the chocolate. I was a big fan of the cereal, the Smacks of Kellogg's. The Smacks? I'm sorry for this, but I say that I have the pee pee who smells the Smacks.
11:16But I do it all the time. I have the pee pee who smells the Smacks all the time. And it's weird, it's because with the Smacks, I don't have the impression that when I'm going to go to Frosty's, it doesn't feel the pee pee pee. So yeah, I'm sure. But there was a team Chocapic, Chocopops, but I was team Smacks. My class was Smacks, Frosties, Miel Pops. I think I'm a bit more pointu. I had my cousin who lived to the United States, so I discovered the Lucky Charms. Ah, the Lucky Charms. When it was in France, it was very safe. Fruit Loops. Fruit Loops aussi. There were some other ones who were like...
11:50There was a chocolate in there, but I don't know which one was. I don't remember. plus. En tout cas, je rêvais d 'aimer les Vitabix parce que je trouvais que le côté un peu escalope pané... Oui, c 'est vrai que sur la pochette, on ne savait pas si c 'était du salé ou du sucré. Tu voyais des giga trucs. Et quand tu le goûtes, tu ne sais pas non plus. Je n 'ai jamais goûté. J 'aimerais bien goûter un jour. C 'est un mystère de mon enfance. Je me dis, c 'est quoi cette boîte ? Elle ne m 'intrigue pas. Elle ne m 'attire pas plutôt. Mais du coup, tu étais dans des trucs assez... Tu n 'es pas du tout un gars chamonis ou figolus.
12:17J 'ai l 'impression que tu as des goûts plutôt chocolatés. Well, I'm not very... It's funny, the toasts prefered of my father, I've talked about it again a week, it's the chamonix. Ah, the chamonix, the toasts to the orange, the little aluminum. I was going to buy it, I was going to buy it at the house, I was going to buy two or three packages. And that's the taste of my dad. I was more... Well, you know, I had really taste of the taste of the bourrin. Genre, the granola, the pépitos. I love a lot of all the fresh. Okay. The barquettes? I like the little little little with their little little fruit the fresh I like it the material is interesting the material is interesting and I like it I like it in rond also otherwise after I could tomber the pain au lait yeah I saw an interview of you where you are you are trying to class the Kinder yeah I was scandalized why I did not I did not I did not I did not I did not I did not I did not Kinder Bueno Country and in 3 I was going to I did not I did not I did not Well, I like the bar.
13:23The kinder of base. The originals. I like that one. In addition, I think that the whole thing is a little bit. I love it. I'm going to give you a nuance. If you do this in a bowl and you put the kinder in the middle, I don't know. But now, I can't do it anymore. Why? I have a lot of vent, I'm going to eat. It's a nightmare. But really, it's a nightmare. Sérieux? I can't do it anymore. I can't do it anymore. I can't do it anymore. achten can already I'm going to have a bit of apny seemed very lazy it's true that I also talk about when I get myself 100 minutes it's supposed to eaturt you canp cri guess
14:18No. You don't find the kind of meat of the cake? Figure-toi that I didn't like it at all. They brought a variant recently. Noix de coco. You're a good? I bought it at my office. He prefers the original. I don't like the original. I like the coco. I'm a tentative. But it's a moment, what you tell me, it reminds me of a terrible moment of a terrible time. I'm a man that I don't know. to be in the middle. So I defoncent a bunch of kinds of kinds of kinds. But I'm not the type of guy who will take a 1-1 and will say all the next week. I'll take 5 kilos per week. I was going to tell you that for a reason précise.
14:59You said that you eat everything. Because this podcast is going to go in all the senses. So Malik, you know it. I didn't say it. But it's very thin. Yeah, I'm cool. I'm fine. I'm in the norm. You're very mince. I'm at 72-73 kilos. I'm not a big. I'm a 92. You're a pes person? With me, I'm a man. I'm a pes person. I'm a pes person. But for those who want to lose weight, it's terrible. Don't you pay me. Wait, don't you. I'm not a pes person. No. With the stuff that gives you all the mass. The mass, the stuff. Why do you say that people who want to lose weight, it's not that they're going to lose weight?
15:41Because I think that peser, it includes a lot of things. Everyone gives you their technique. The morning, after I'm going to go to the toilet. And then, sometimes you'll do a little sport. You'll think you'll lose weight, but you'll lose weight. So you'll say, it's sure I've lost 2-3 kilos. You're the same weight. But in fact, your body is changing. Because you're perhaps the same weight, but you're not more traced. We're on a little bit in shape. I love it. But I've stopped to be weighed. I thought I'd do it to myself. Even in jeans. I'm looking at jeans. If the button is closed, if the button is closed, it's enough.
16:13It's not easy. Because after it's a bit of a bit. And when I'm a bit of a bit, I've made a effort and I've never got a bit of a bit, I'm going to go to the fridge and I'm going to go to the fridge. Yeah. I'm going to go to the fridge. You have a little trouble in the comportment. Yeah. Totally. I'm very sucre, I'm more sucre than the salad. So it doesn't help. And I'm very sore. I'm going to get a little bit of a nourishment. It's very bad, I'm going to get a little bit of a nourishment. I'm going to get a little bit of a 15-16 hours. But you're doing the intermittent. It's natural. I'm going to do the intermittent, in knowing that the intermittent is still charged.
16:43It's to say that the evening, I don't know how much I'm going to watch. I don't know how to watch a film, a series, a match of foot without anything. But like, I'm going to watch a cake. I can go in bonbons, I can go in pizza, I can go in snacks. I adore the bonbons. Oh, the bonbons. It's the cinema, I'm going to watch. But I can't eat it. Yeah, it's a good time. I'm going to eat 30, in plus. I'm going to eat a packet. Is it which one you prefer? I like the little kids who pick... Bleu ciel and rose. Bleu ciel and rose, number 2. Number one, the language bicolores. Ah, the language. Genre orange violet ou orange vert.
17:14Pas mal, pas mal. You know what I'm doing here? I love it because here I'm talking about a group of guys. Malheureusement, they're not going to tell their names. It's a group of guys around the table who have a conversation with a culinaire. And they talk about it as if it was a question of view or of mort. And here they had a debate. They said, we need to rehabilitate the Flunch. The people don't go to the Flunch. J 'étais tellement d 'accord avec cette... Cette... Cette réhabilitation. Totalement, parce que je trouve que... Mais ça existe encore le Punch. Ça existe encore. Moi, c 'était mes plus beaux moments.
17:43Mes parents allaient chez Auchan faire les courses et à la fin, à la fin des courses, on allait chez Flunch. Je crois que je ne suis jamais allée chez Flunch. Mais parce que je pense que Flunch, il n 'y en a pas à... C 'est Paris. Oui, non. Non mais c 'est pas... Moi, j 'ai grandi à Paris. Ah, il n 'y en avait pas trop à Paris. Je ne suis pas sûre qu 'il y avait trop de Flunch. Je crois que c 'est banlieue, parisienne. and I'm from province, so it was very province and Paris, I know there are still there Wait, let's go on the mode, you're quite quite in mode, rien that you've made a parody Jacquemus, it's that you already knew Jacquemus I totally I found a sensibility mode, but it's due to a lot of things, to say that today, the mode goes to the urbain, it's a word that I don't but to the rap, to the hip-hop it's what they want, and I who am I am of rap and of this culture there, for sure, it's liable to the mode today.
18:30So it's by the way of rap that I'm arrived at the mode. And it's true that in general, yes, I'm going to watch the tenues, the défilés. You go to the défilé a little bit? I've had the chance to go to see a tour of a friend of not long time who's called Ami. Just like Alexandre, I love what he does. I'm so open, not snob. It's what I'm going to do, it's the people snob. From the moment where they invite me, I'm saying they're nice. They're really nice. Exactly. And you're like that. You're like Alexandre. I'm going to see Dior. It was crazy. But it's still a new level. It's not a snob. They're not a snob.
19:07They're very nice. They're very nice. Very nice. Copernic. Very nice. Copernic. I was going to Disney. I was going to see the show. They were also on the show. They're always on the show. They're always on the show. It's a drôle de monsieur. It's a little more accessible and very quality. There are some brands like that. I'm going to tell you, after the moment... Ah, drôle de monsieur. The brand. Okay, I was waiting for you to cite someone. Drôle de monsieur in the mode. I know this brand drôle de monsieur, which is extraordinary. It's them who make notes from Paris, madame. In all of a sudden, they are great.
19:44But you're at a time when you arrive in a tour? Because I was two or three times, I was very close. Not that much. For example, you're going to say Dior. I'm not very happy. But after, it depends on the exchange we have before the show. It's-is that if you pass by 1 000 intermediaries, you feel that it's something quite huge. You say, oh, it's complicated. But it's true that it's not my universe. I'm not very happy. When I was little, I had only a chance to be able to work. I was dreaming of being a farmer, a farmer, a librarian. I imagined a woman independent, having my own shop and being the patron of my little commerce.
20:16This feeling of independence, I finally gained it on stage, thanks to my spectacles. But if I could make this other dream of child, I don't know what I would sell, maybe my skincare skincare or makeup, but I would use Shopify, which sponsorizes this episode.

21:32non c 'est vrai que moi à partir du moment on me donne de la considération et du respect comme ce que tu viens de dire sur les tenues et qu 'on m 'invite gentiment j 'y vais ouais c 'est cool c 'est agréable ça flatte toujours un peu ouais ça flatte un peu l 'ego même si on n 'en est plus là mais non mais je crois I think we're not there in the fact of having proof of our own job. But I think, for example, there are so many things that are on the side of the humor. I feel like it's more cool for you. I remember when I started playing in a movie, I was going to be dressed in a humorous movie. I had a thing like that.
22:05What's that? I have a feeling like Patrick Sébastien. It's horrible. Even the humorist, we're the one who's the king. I don't say it in a way. péjorative. Maintenant, c 'est vrai que sans faire ce sampiternel comparatif aux Etats-Unis, il y a un espèce de truc où tu peux passer plus facilement d 'un univers à un autre. Quand tu prends Jonah Hill qui passe de Superbad au Lou de Wall Street, ou quand tu prends une Charlize Theron qui va faire des films super sérieux, puis des comédies avec Seth Roden, ils ont cette capacité à se lalomer, qu 'on a un peu moins, ça arrive, ça arrive doucement mais sûrement, avec toi, à ton niveau, tu vois When I see you pass from one woman to a film of a very chic, very stylized, it's cool.
22:50It's cool. I'm saying it's possible, it exists. And it's a reference for us. So yes, it happens. It's a progress. But we're not yet angry. We're not yet angry. It's not tomorrow, the veille, which LVMH, I think, will contact us. But we're going to stay together. And it's the most important. Who knows, maybe one day. No, no. And then, it's a game. Toi, you're a good. D 'ailleurs, it's a good game. You're a good game. You're a good game to look at photos. Because when you go to these things, there's a photo call. I imagine. I have a lot of trouble. And then, I don't know why I have a community. It's very influenceable to say that.
23:20But I have a public who is very banner. And so, it was horrible. Because when I have the malheur to get a little bit of a bit of a show, I put the comments behind. It's hilarious, but it's me. I can't even go on it because it's hilarious. What's he doing, he's doing this? You're serious with your vest? You choose all alone or you have a stylist? I choose. I have a lot to delegate a stylist. You have confidence in your goal. Yeah, yeah. I prefer to choose and add a intermediate. In the middle of that, it's already a good idea. But I like it. It's a thing that I love to do. But yes, I'm not very happy when I go.
23:55Yeah, yeah, for sure. Are people who commenters in your community, your perte of weight? I don't know how it's spectacular or not. I know that you're mince, but I don't remember you. Listen, I haven't seen a lot of photos of me in surpoids. But, beyond the weight, it was really a period of dark. Yeah, a bit dark of my life where you leave it and you're not good. And in fact, yes, after you put words on it, depression, burnout. Toi, on a what, like depression? Yeah, depression. I just took my Prozac, so there's no problem in talking. Forced, so we do a lot of jobs and we come from a milieu. And we have all our bagages, our nevroses.
24:36We come from a different place. And in addition to that, the job that we do, it's a paradoxical. It's a job where we seem to be happy, but we can, in a clack of the docks, be able to fall into a sort of saddening, very bizarre, because we play in a 4.000, 3.000, 2.000. And then there is a very brutal solitude. So it's why I like to exchange with other humorists, because we understand. And at the same time, I don't want to complain, because I grew up with parents who have made a difficult job. And today, the three-quarters of the French do difficult jobs, and they don't get to play the same. so that would be a bad thing to do our part.
25:11Yes, that is a great job. The job that we love. The job that we love, to say that it's hard, it's not obvious. But it's also important for us to sensibilise some problems who are not, who are not feeling, who are not more vicious, and who enter in you, and you don't realize that you're in a great depression, a great tristice. And that's happened. Yes, I think it's also important to remember that sometimes you don't always have an element, because for very long time, the depression, the psys, all that was a bit like a bourgeois it's a problem, and in fact, you know we have a beautiful life, we do a job that we love every time we say it's courageous, I say it's more courageous when I was doing a job that I didn't I was going to go every morning, there it's cool but in fact, you don't have a reason visible, you have also something chemically you can just be bad, and that I think that concerns a lot of people you tell, and in fact, it creates a lot of people who say, no, but I don't have a reason to go there, but sometimes you have a bad -être you have a reason more profound And it's very just what you say, because I think that I'm a social milieu who is a social a little mi-class moyenne, mi-class défavorisée, so rather classe galère.
26:18Yeah. Rather, step by step, with my job, I've been able to be a transfusion of classes. But we are in an emergency. In all cases, I saw my family being in an emergency economic which didn't allow us to take a look at the medical and psychical diseases. And there was a lot of blood pressure. 1 plus 1 equals 2. Is it your arm's chest? You have blood pressure? No? It's fine. So it's this urgency of working, you need to fill the fridge, you need to go out. And sometimes in this urgency, you don't take a look at it. You don't have a point of support, a point of comparison. If I had a TV a artist, a humorist or someone that I admire who had sensibility more young on the mental health, maybe I would have understood some things more early.
27:07So it's why today I do it, it's important for me to talk about it. Because maybe tomorrow, there are people more young who will see me in interviews and who will say, OK. But I think it's important to talk about it like you. And I'm going to put it in the same panier because I'm talking about it in my show. I think it's good to talk about it in the joy. Yes, exactly. You see, in fact, we've seen plenty, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, you see, I'm sure that the people tell me what it is. But it's cool to tell you how you're going to get out, how you find out.
27:36I think it's really very... It's true, you're right. You're right, you're right. You're right, you're right. You're right, you're right. You're right with humor. And we're really the best placed, maybe, today to talk about this subject. Top 3 of the best humorist who speak. No, but you're right. It's important. So, yes, I've had a loss of weight. I'm pretty vertigineuse with a lot of sports, a lot of pastèques and melons. It was my two My two allies I was born of fruit But do you think That your loss of weight Was also related to depression Or was it related to When you wanted to go To do a change When I wanted to go When I don't go well It's when I take the weight It's to say That I'm alone And I'm isolated And I'm compensated With With a good food That's what I'm Reconforting Exactly And then Coquillettes Evidemment Coquillettes avec un peu de gruyère Coquillettes avec un peu de gruyère Pizza, kebab Loklak Ah, Loklak, tout ça réconfortant ?
28:38Oui, j 'aime bien J 'ai plutôt l 'impression d 'être saine quand je me fais un Loklak Oui, c 'est les faux plats sains C 'est -à-dire que même les sushis, apparemment, c 'est très calorique Tu as décidé d 'aller mieux après ta dépression ? Oui, c 'est ça, me reprendre en main, faire du sport Alors c 'est un chemin long Parce que je suis monté à... Je faisais 120 kilos and in fact when you start the sport it's that the advice that if people want to lose weight when you start the sport and you go on a race and you try to regulate the speed and you realize that at 4 ,5 you want to die, you want to die, you want to die you want to die, you want to die, you want to die it's long it's a good thing to say, because this morning I told you earlier, I told you to when he arrived, I told you I was at the sport, I don't know why I told you that in plus I didn't ask you, it was just for the place It was very cute.
29:27You were very proud. I was at the sport this morning. And so, my friend Monia Chokri, who was very much, told me that she would do 5-12-30. You know what? What's the 5-12-30? It's 5 km heure, pente de 12%, 30 minutes. It's costaud, the pente. Well, when I was. And so, today, she told me that it doesn't matter to you. So, today, I made 4 km heure. And the pente? 10%. And it's exciting? 20 minutes. Very good. But it doesn't work, it doesn't work Well, why not? It's a lot, it's a lot In fact, you have always the impression In your beginning, when you reprends the sport, that it doesn't work Because it's not a gouttour I'm sorry when she says that But even me, the only time I was going to get It's when I wanted to start too hard And in fact, you start step by step And all doucement, and then 5, 6, 7, you're going to do the thing 8, but it's long It's a rigor It's not easy But you're a good thing?
30:22I like it when I see results. Yes, I like it. It's a drug. I don't like the first week because it's violent. Because you have a problem. You're fatigued. But after you know, when you start to see the first results, when your menton arrives at touch your genou, you say, hey, there's no more little bit of a bubble. I can't do it. I'm doing a little exo like that all alone. I'm saying, but it's in the way it works. There's a little thing that's out of the way. There's a little bit of a bottle. So you see these little victories. these little victories step by step. It's important. With a coach, you do?
30:55No. I've had a coach, but I've had a level of foot and I was doing karate at the time. So you're sportive, you're a sport. Yeah, at the base, I'm a sport. So I know, I know the exercises, the best exercises to do. But yes, even the jobs that we make, I don't know. I've had a problem with my image. When I'm in the surpoids and not really well in my face, I've had a problem at the end. to go to the screen and watch it, I'm saying that it's not possible. And now? And now it's a little better. I've always had trouble. It's rare to find a comedian or a comedian who has to look at it. It's very rare.
31:32I don't know if you're going to know. I don't know if I want to know people who love to watch it. It's funny because I've passed it not very long, the first time in my life, I've passed a test in English. I've passed the first time in my life a tape in English. and in fact, you're a type of film, you're at home, someone gives you a reply. And I was persuaded when I was in English, I had repeated my English. I was really doing things like, I'm not sure. Maybe yesterday, maybe tomorrow, who knows. And I was thinking, it's fine. And I said, you want to see me again before my voyage? I said, no, no, I was really fine.
32:08And I was rematting. It was a explosion. I was on the floor. I was on the floor. I had a kick. I don't know. And in fact, it's funny because I was looking at what you said. I was looking at Christian Bale. I was looking at the English language who I was on the floor. And I was looking at the eyes of the eyes. I was looking at the eyes of the eyes. There was a lot of expressions. I was looking at what is that? I was looking at the stress. But I was surprised that it was my English language. I was thinking, yeah, it's going to pass. But wait, it's tapes, and we're in agreement, I've done it in English too recently.
32:43Yeah, it's true. It's the one where you film you, or by someone, but in your room. It's kind of hyper hard because you don't have an indication. Yeah, it's hard. You don't have an indication and you don't have to send it to one version. It's-is that you can't tell them that it's more joyous, that it's more dark. On voit the one that you think is the best. So you send it to TikTok, and yeah, it's hard. I think that the charm of our job is to be aligned with what we think to have done and what we do really. And when you arrive at this level... But the scene, it's a bit this truth, I think. I'm sure.
33:18I'm sure. And it's weird, this scene where we're much more libre and much more at ease. Even with our image. I don't know, I'm going to see it on screen. I'm going to see it on screen. Ah, no. No, no, no. It's weird. Yeah, yeah. But because I'm like, I'm going to tell you, on screen, I know, I'm going to tell you. there are so many kinds of autodérision that I say that it's a place where I don't want to be desired exactly you're a man of time, a man of space a man of decisions there's a thing of seduction horrible but wait, you're going to have a project of series that you're going to realize so you're going to have to look at, to look at, to look at exactly, I'm going to have to look at it's true that I'm in a deep vein we talked about all the time Or Micro, it's a series I'm very inspired by a series called The Studio I've also liked Platan 10 % Curb, Enthousiasme à mort, Larry David and all at a point and it's true that I'm quite happy that a platform like Disney accept this kind of format which is not current in France malgré all we've had Platan but it's almost a a dozen years so yeah I'm very happy very happy on tourne this year.
34:34It's amazing. It's a bit of a diet. So you make a little bit of a diet. Yeah. I'm going to put... During the Ramadan, I've always tend to, as I eat the night, I'm going to take a few kilos. So in the period post-Ramadan, I'm going to get a little bit to diet and to sport. So I'm going to be in the rock. It's true. I'm going to be in the rock. I'm going to be in the rock. And even beyond that, it's a way of feeling well. Even in the heart, beyond the body, even the fact to have this rigueur to say every morning to wake up at 7am or 6am I'm going to do 45 minutes of sport I don't know it's crazy but it's a cliche to say that but you feel good but you feel good every day I try even if it's a little I try to not stay inactive even if it's a little it's a little bit a little bit a little bit a little bit a little bit a little bit something and then we're so sorry I'm sorry I'm going to replomber the podcast but we're so entourated by the disease today you're right all the time what we eat what we eat I don't think that people can mourir of the day at the time.
35:36At the time, there were very classes. Good night. I'm talking about my sweet text. Those who are in the dormant. It's great. I said that it's my ultimate anguish. You wouldn't want to mourir in the dormant? For me, it's the worst thing. You can't even go home. You're saying good night. You're never coming. I think it's really... But you know, it's almost a dream. I love it. I love that it's 99 years. And if we're persuaded, because people say she's mortified without suffering in her sleep, we don't know what's wrong. I don't know the three seconds before they were passed. All the solitude. Horrible.
36:06I'm sure. But today, I think it's interesting to talk about the death. I'm hyper angry about that. And you see, we're trying to fight. Malgré tout, today, we're trying to fight. And it's what you're trying to do to your son. What we eat. What we're trying to do. After having done 17 classes. You're trying to do it. But it's hard. It's a subject that I'm touching particularly. because if you're going to take one week and then you're going to be repris. After you're going to be taken by the daily, by the work, by the work. It's hard to take it. It would be hard to live in the seven. After, you know, I don't have a discipline on the sport and all, but I have a discipline on the food.
36:43And I can say, I think it's also a thing to get used to it. Because of all, at the end of a moment, your body will not tolerate the thing. Yeah, totally. So if you're going to be like me, you'll never be able to tolerate the thing. And it's unjust because it's unjust that it's almost reserved to an elite. when I see the price of the bio, when I see the price of the price, it's not normal. I see it in this moment, the medicine at two vitesses exists totally. The food at two vitesses exists totally. And it's hard, it's difficult because you tell me, thanks to my job today, I have the chance to benefit from some medicine, from a doctor or a professor.
37:18And many people in France don't benefit from the same medicine. And it's an infinite tristesse. infinity. C 'est pour ça que si, à ma petite échelle, je peux aider avec des... Faire des spectacles. Il y a souvent des médecins qui me demandent pour la recherche, de venir faire des spectacles ou des dîners, de charité, de gala. Je trouve que vraiment, aujourd 'hui, la médecine, c 'est tellement... Tu as été amené à être dans des hôpitaux pour tes proches. Tu te dis, mais les conditions des hôpitaux, parfois, et on est chanceux, ce n 'est pas les pires. Oui, oui. Et les conditions des médecins et des infirmières et des trucs, si seulement on pouvait faire en sorte...
37:51C 'est le plus important. We are all talking about one-man, of a spectacle, of a cinema, of showbiz, of a thing. But once the disease you touch... I think that... But anyway, it doesn't happen often in your life, where you say, you take the head for a mini thing that you obsess, and you say, but in fact, it's what? It's what I'm doing? It's grave, because I'm not aware of that. Exactly, that it's nothing. I haven't been taken for this film, I haven't been, or on a refused. But putain, but... But in fact, the life is beautiful, everything goes well. I swear, when you enter in an hospital, the odor, not even the odor.
38:20and then everyone becomes a croyant you go to a hospital, my God, if you please if you please, make sure that the news is good make it better, make it better, make it better and it's always important to have in a corner of his head, in any case, I think the health, yeah, and when people say the health it's even like, it's even like, it's a thing that I think very often, and at every time particularly when I have anointing débile you know, professional, or someone who has a bad voice, you know and I'm saying in fact, it's a good start and it's why I help the doctors, help the doctors, help the doctors, the professors, the chirurgians, to make sure they work in conditions decent.
38:55And that's unfortunately not always the case. Like the profs, like the service public. On is well aware. You do attention to the future, you take care of your... You take care of your diet? Yeah, I'm a diet royal. It's true? Yeah, I'm a diet royal. It's my father who is at the top there. He said propolis. Propolis aussi. Vitamine C. I'm at the top. Vitamine D aussi. vitamin D, vitamin C. It's -à-dire que the morning, when I wake up, there's a whole thing. Ah, yeah, it's cool. There's also the 40 gellules, 40 trucs. Shlack, shlack, shlack. After I can start the day, I can start the day. When I travel, I don't know if I can do it.
39:32I don't know if I can do it. I have to buy a pillier. A pillier, yeah, yeah, yeah. Of course. And sometimes, you arrive, the valise, because the valise is torn, the thing, I have the gellules, the gelée royal, which is wet, which is reversed. But yeah, it's there, now, I have a pillier. And is it, in tournée, tu manges avant ou après toi ? Alors c 'est une très bonne question, jamais avant. Non moi non plus. Je l 'ai fait une fois. Et t 'as pété sur scène ? En vrai j 'ai déjà pété une fois sur scène. Et je me suis dit c 'est fou, c 'est que je suis pas du tout dedans. Non ils ont pas entendu. Mais je me disais c 'est un niveau de détente qui est pas possible.
40:02Moi je suis en roue libre. Tu manges après donc on est d 'accord. T 'emmènes quoi dans ta trousse de toilette en tournée ou chez toi ? T 'as une petite skin routine ou pas ? Très bonne question. Alors j 'ai une crème, une seule crème. Elle est... Attends c 'est quoi cette marque ? C 'est la meilleure marque de crème. It's a little bit... It's a little anti-rides? Yeah, you know, a cream for the face, a little bit... It purifies... I'm very nul there. I love it. It's not Aven. It's possible that Aven? Aven, it's black, the packaging? The packaging, the cream is black. It's black? No, the packaging is black.
40:38And when you get it, the tube is black. I don't know. It's for a little bit. I don't know. I have a lot of words. It's really the guy who's doing his skincare. For adoucir les pores. It's for adoucir les pores. No, I'm not very skincare. No, I'm not. In general, you wash the face with water, you brush the teeth, you go to bed. Yeah, I'm going to bed. I have a cream before you sleep. Yeah, it's the one. I have two. I have one before you sleep. One the morning. Different? Yeah, different. I have two. But I have a morning and evening. So I have, obviously, a cream before you sleep. Question very indiscreet.
41:15You crème the body? I'm not going to cry. I'm not going to cry. I'm not going to cry. I'm not going to cry. You're going to cry. To talk to you? I'm not going to cry. I saw something a day in a store. They were very chic. I wanted to talk. At least being a fess. I think that's what I talk. I'm not going to talk. I was talking to Louis XIV. Ah ouais, c 'est fou de faire ça C 'est chanmé de me talquer Après t 'as porté un shirt blanc, tu l 'as ruiné J 'ai bien eu du talc partout, par terre, chez moi C 'est fou de faire ça J 'étais talqué, j 'étais heureux, j 'étais bien T 'es la première personne qui se talc C 'est ma Madeleine de Proust, je me suis talqué, ambiancée Tu l 'as refait après ?
42:00Non, je l 'ai fait qu 'une fois Je l 'ai fait qu 'une fois et j 'étais heureux Après c 'est une organisation Sans trop savoir pourquoi tu l 'as fait en plus Dans cette boîte que j 'avais acheté, il y avait un espèce de pommeau très doux and you threw this kind of pomeu moelleux in the talk. But it looked like a little bit coquin, no? No, no, no. It was a little bit like a poudre. Exactly. It was totally that. I was a little bit talker. I was fine. I was fine. I think Malik, I thank you very much. It's, I think, the first time I receive a guest who's talking. And N 'hésitez pas à laisser vos commentaires Si vous aussi vous êtes talkés Et si Vous savez pourquoi on le fait Parce que là visiblement c 'est un petit moment doudou C 'est un moment doudou et d 'ailleurs j 'organise tous les soirs Enfin en tout cas une fois par semaine des dix minutes Soirée talk Pour se talker, on se talk les uns les autres Oh là là, ça doit être délicieux comme soirée J 'ai hâte de venir, merci Malé Merci Nora, c 'était super, merci à vous
