The young actress Marie Cornillon defended the abolition of bullfighting, in front of the statue of Nimeño, in the square of the bullrings this Wednesday at noon.
Nude in flesh-colored panties, but dressed by the work of a makeup artist specializing in bodypainting, actress Marie Cornillon brandished her little tricolor panel for the abolition of bullfighting. A pair of horns – black (sic) – and a red veil on her head, red smoke bombs and here is the young woman in the position of Liberty leading the people, while an activist of the American association Peta refines all the details on the performance.. .
“The Peta association contacted me and I immediately agreed to put my notoriety at the service of this abolition cause. My body is a tool at the service of my work, to embody characters, I say yes to this bodypainting action against bullfighting”, explained the young 24-year-old actress, very popular on social media (and seen in Lost Illusions or The Good Wife). It is the Montpellier artist Soukeyna Lecoustre (Sknart of her artist name) who painted the body of the young woman. A rather bucolic work: “I wanted to show that we had wonderful things ahead of us and that we didn’t have to kill them” says the make-up artist, also requested by Peta and who does not equate bullfighting and the tradition of the Camargue.
For Guy, a septuagenarian from Saint-Hippolyte-du-Fort, passing through the square of the arenas at the time of the show “In Nîmes, as in Arles or Béziers, or even as in Spain, bullfights are a tradition, we can’t ban everything! That would be a real shame”.
