Orlando confides. During a recent interview with Jordan De Luxe on his show From Jordanpublished on the website of Tele-leisure, the 86-year-old musician returned to the highlights of his long career. During this interview, the singer Dalida’s brother spoke frankly about the flop of the show L’hôtel du temps, created by Thierry Ardisson. The first issue, which proposed a fictitious conversation with the singer who disappeared thanks to a highly successful technological process, had brought together only 1.4 million viewers. “I gave Thierry free rein and the public was not yet ready for this type of programme. But you will see that the second one will work very well. […] It didn’t have a very strong market share, it performed moderately […], because people were afraid to look, maybe the word death was scary“He explained.
Orlando retraces his experience in Big heads
During this interview, Orlando also flashed back to his time in radio as a columnist for Laurent Ruquier. In 2016 he joined the team of Big heads the time of a single and unique number. “I did not stay at my request”explained, before returning to his experience with Philippe Bouvard, the predecessor of Laurent Ruquier. “Philippe Bouvard had already invited me before. I had done it one day simply and I told him ‘Philippe, it’s not for me’. He understood immediately”, he confided. Out of friendship with Laurent Ruquier, Orlando has finally agreed to return The big heads. “He invited me for three days. He gave me the choice saying: ‘Listen, you don’t have to come every day. You choose the week you want to come. You will do two, three days during the week.’ So I enjoyed it, it must be said that I was a little proud to have been called for the Big Heads“, he continued. Unfortunately, Dalida’s brother realized that this columnist role did not suit him. “As soon as I did the first show, I just didn’t feel comfortable. I said, “No, it’s not for me because you have to have a very broad, very eclectic knowledge of a lot of things, which I haven’t had time to have or it hasn’t bothered me. Maybe not interested.” I felt out of place“, He added. A short and inconclusive experience.
