Completely false accusations. On May 18, 2017, on his show "TPMP – Radio Baba", Cyril Hanouna, as part of a telephone hoax, was posing for Jean-José, a 26-year-old bibadual young man who posted an ad on a bibadual dating site. Cyril Hanouna had then taken an effeminate voice to pose as the young man of the ad, adopting a mannered attitude. The hoax, considered homophobic, had at the time created a huge outcry, causing tens of thousands of reports to the CSA.
