“Well-behaved supporters”, “patriotic players” and “exemplary values”… This is what we can read on the latest front page dedicated to rugby in the weekly Valeurs contemporains. To illustrate the point, a photo of player Antoine Dupont, during the opening match against the All Blacks, and another of Jean Dujardin, in his costume during the opening ceremony: mustache, beret and suspenders. A highlight that the two celebrities did not appreciate, as reported by Le Parisien.
??? Antoine Dupont reposted Jean Dujardin’s story in reaction to the front page of Valeurs Actuelles on “La France rugby” to oppose the political recovery of the world championship and the ideas of the magazine.
While Current Values ??headlined “France rugby”, actor Jean Dujardin reacted on his Instagram account. “France rugby yes, your values ??no. No recovery. THANKS. » he wrote in a “story”. His message of disassociation was then re-shared by the captain of the XV of France, who did not add a word.
Already, in 2022, the rugby player had signed a column during the presidential elections to oppose Marine Le Pen during the second round. For his part, Jean Dujardin had already expressed his astonishment on social networks at the political comments linked to the opening ceremony of the Rugby World Cup, which was devoted to “the French art of living”. .
The actor said he was surprised by “such a flood of political and media comments”. Advocating the second level of the event, he regretted that this ceremony had not been able to “bring us together”.
