After Abittan said he was afraid, the French first lady responded: “if there are stupid bitches, we’ll toss them out.”
Abittan’s return was protested by the feminist group Nous Toutes, whose members disrupted the show to denounce what they called a “communication campaign aimed at portraying him as a traumatized person while humiliating and belittling the victim.”
In a statement to French newswire AFP published Monday, Macron’s office said the remark should be understood as “criticism of the radical methods used by those who disrupted and obstructed Ary Abittan’s show.”
Condemnation came from political figures across party lines, as well as activists and film industry professionals.
Marine Tondelier, head of the French Greens, called the remark “extremely grave” and conservative Senator Agnès Evren described it as “very sexist.”
Prisca Thévenot, a lawmaker from the president’s party and former government spokesperson, deemed the comment “inelegant.”
