Philippe Katerine wants to remain very discreet. The Dordogne is perhaps the ideal department to recharge one’s batteries in the middle of the “media whirlwind”. Since his performance at the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games, the almost naked body painted in bluein the middle of a Drag Queen banquet, the artist is in high demand, he no longer wants to give interviews and moves in “incognito” mode.
But at the beginning of the week, Philippe Katerine came to Dordogne. He accompanied his wife, the actress Julie Depardieu who came to give a concert-reading at the Château de Campagne on Tuesday July 6. The whole family came to Dordogne : their two sons Billy and Alfred and even the dog Zouzou.
Cap and sunglasses at Lascaux
The family slept at the famous Glycines hotel-restaurant in Les Eyzies. They were due to leave on Thursday morning but had to cut their stay short. They left on Wednesday after an unmissable visit: the Lascaux caves. Philippe Katerine arrived at the site in Montignac with a cap and sunglasses. But he didn’t have a private visit, he went through the front door and mingled with the other tourists.
Since the opening ceremony, Philippe Katerine has been one of the most searched artists on the Internet. In China, we call him “the smurf”The Chinese have even created a dessert in his image.
