Aya Nakamura at the Olympics: for the sake of Marine Le Pen, Emmanuel Macron wants to “divide” and “humiliate” the French

The attacks on the singer continue. The President of the National Rally (RN) deputies, Marine Le Pen, criticized on Wednesday the possibility of Aya Nakamura speaking at the opening of the Olympic Games. “This is not a beautiful symbol, to be honest, this is an additional provocation on the part of Emmanuel Macron,” the far-right leader said on France Inter. In her opinion, Emmanuel Macron wants to “divide” and “humiliate” the French.

The President must “get up every morning saying Hey, how can I humiliate the French people? “, she says. “I won’t even talk to you about the surroundings… I’ll talk to you about her outfit, about her vulgarity, about the fact that she doesn’t sing in French, she doesn’t sing in any way. stranger or she’s singing I don’t know what,” she continued.

“This is not crossbreeding, this is nonsense,” she criticized, also considering it “shameful” that the most popular French-speaking singer in the world was the target of racist attacks, in particular during the Reconquista rally.

“The image we want to create about our country”

Far from “questioning her nationality,” Marine Le Pen questioned “the image we want to project about our country.” The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, during which, according to press reports, Emmanuel Macron wants her to play Edith Piaf, “should unite, should unite the French,” she added. “It is difficult to unite 100%, but we clearly see that Emmanuel Macron’s desire was to divide once again. This is what he does best,” the three-time unsuccessful presidential candidate added.

A global star after “Djadja” in 2018, the French-Malian singer, 28, was born in Bamako and raised in Aulnay-sous-Bois (Seine-Saint-Denis). Aya Nakamura, who released her fourth album “DNK” last year, is playing in the big leagues. At the end of 2022, she hosted an interactive show in the video game blockbuster “Fortnite,” which loves such collaborations. This type of catwalk is reserved for global megastars such as American rapper Travis Scott or Brazilian soccer star Neymar.
