Amazon gets picked up. The final season of “LOL: Who Laughs Comes Out!” “, broadcast on the Amazon Prime platform, was a hit with an XXL cast. Gad Elmaleh, Jonathan Cohen, Pierre Niney, François Damiens had played the game of trying not to laugh, locked in a room between talented comedians for several hours. What is certain is that next season will not be with Blanche Gardin.
The well-polished comedian responded to the invitation via a smashing Facebook post. “Very dear Mr. Bezos, I regret to have to refuse your invitation to participate in the next season of the game ‘LOL: Who Laughs Comes Out!’ broadcast on your Amazon platform. »
“I’d be embarrassed (not to say downright painful) to be paid $200,000 for a day’s work even if I lose at your game, when the charity of my choice wins, her, 50,000 euros, that is to say 4 times less. It bothers me to receive, for 8 hours of work, this maddening sum from a company which does not pay its taxes in France (…) which uses the labor force of the Uyghur concentration camps”, detonates- she.
The comedian also criticized the American giant’s mode of operation, which “destroys jobs in small businesses and all the social life that goes with it. The jobs it creates by destroying others are backbreaking jobs in dehumanized warehouses, where employees are treated like robots who are wrung out by putting mad pressure on them at infernal cadences and prevented from unionize… All this for what? So we could order cheap diapers from our couch scratching our balls. Yes, it bothers me.”
However, the comedian offers a compromise full of sarcasm to the company owned by Jeff Bezos. “If however, reading me, you fell from the clouds, or space (…) and it makes you want to completely rethink your business, then perhaps you could invite me back later”.
