Gérard Lanvin, an accomplished actor with recognized outspokenness, did not fool his first employer in a ski resort for a long time. On Europe 1, he came back on this lie which turned against him.
To believe that any celebrity who respects himself had to screw up his CV to start his professional life. Small arrangements with reality that can sometimes be expensive. This daring allowed Alessandra Sublet to obtain an internship at MTV in New York, as the bubbly host confided on the set of C to you. “What did I have to lose in the midst of these Americans who taught me so many beautiful things? It worked! The nerve is not just rude”, she said, referring to “lies that don’t hurt others”. Nicolas Canteloup’s sidekick had even gone so far as to manufacture a fake social security card. Gérard Lanvin did not go so far in the disguise of reality. More that big mouth also played with the laws to convince the bosses of a ski resort to hire him, he who had already worked as a fairground or at the Saint-Ouen flea market.
“I made myself the pebble that shouldn’t be”
The only complication in the well-crafted approach of the actor: make your employer believe that he is an experienced skier while he is closer to Jean-Claude Dusse in Les Bronzés than to Jean-Claude Killy. The deception lasted no longer than a small descent. The new ski lift technician had in fact omitted the fact that at the end of the day, it was necessary to regain the valley at the cost of a few sharp turns. “The guys used to pull the buttocks in which I worked, I saw them go like rockets, and I didn’t know how to ski”, contextualized on Europe 1 the one who embarked on the song with the same success as with spatulas at the foot. And to continue his hilarious story: “I thought we were going down with the dumpster. And we had to go down on my own, in a snow plow, and I made myself the rock that shouldn’t be ”. A mishap that led him directly to the emergency room, where he had a plaster cast. Like what it is difficult to fool your employer, even when you are a super good actor.
