Biography

[edit]

After studying journalism, Philippe Lellouche joined the radio station France Inter where he presented a comedy show. He then became a reporter and worked for the French TV channel TF1 for a short period before joining the team of Envoyé spécial on France 2, where he was spotted by Marion Sarraut who offered him a role in the television series Une femme d'honneur. He followed this up with various roles, most notably in the films Michel Vaillant, produced by Luc Besson and Narco, co-directed by his brother Gilles Lellouche.

Encouraged by those close to him to go on the stage, Lellouche wrote his first one man show but it was with Le Jeu de la vérité, which he wrote and performed with his future wife, Vanessa Demouy, and the actors David Brécourt and Christian Vadim, that he achieved success. The show was well-received and led to a sequel,  Le Jeu de la vérité 2. These two shows have been performed several hundred times as well as being recorded and regularly transmitted on television.[verification needed] Since 2009, his third show, featuring the same cast, has played to full houses throughout France and was broadcast live on the television channel France 4 on 14 October 2011.

In February 2010, Lellouche appeared on Paris Première's Cactus talk show alongside Christine Boutin and Robert Ménard, discussing the showing of the short film Le Baiser de la Lune in primary schools. He declared himself sceptical about this anti-homophobia initiative, judging that the clip would rather make watchers “sensitive to homosexuality” (sensibilisation à l'homosexualité); and that it shouldn't be shown to primary school students.[1]

In July 2011, Lellouche directed the film Nos plus belles vacances in Brittany, working with his three usual collaborators as well a cast featuring other friends like Gérard Darmon et Julie Gayet. He was invited by the guitarist Jean-Félix Lalanne to sing Quand j'étais chanteur on his album Une voix, une guitare. Since March 2015, he has co-presented the French version of Top Gear on RMC Découverte with the former Le Mans racing driver Bruce Jouanny and Yann Larret-Menezo, also known as "Le Tone", former editor-in-chief of the magazine Intersection.
