Amel Bent Totally Unrecognizable She Turns Into A Man

It is a sequence that will remain engraved in the annals of television! Amel Bent made an unexpected and exceptional appearance in “Clique Dimanche”. The singer has metamorphosed, made up as a man. Boyish hairstyle topped with a cap, long hair stuck together imperceptibly to form a beard trimmed like a necklace… Note the virtuosity of the make-up artists who created a dinghy of special effects so real that they erased the singer’s natural features. The coach of “The Voice Kids” dares to divert her image to give birth to her masculine counterpart thanks to makeup. The ideal man she had in mind? “I became Jamel (Debbouze, editor’s note): I wear a jumpsuit that crushes the chest so that you don’t guess anything,” she quipped to Télé 7 Jours last October. And to add: “Children, in our suburbs, we dreamed of knowing what the boys were saying to each other, without us being able to participate in their conversations. There, we did it. »

A girl with guts! She thus amazed the spectators, her fans but also Mouloud Achour the presenter of “Clique Dimanche”: “Amel if you look at us: I really love you, it’s incredible”.

A new kind of series

If Amel Bent dressed up as a bearded man, it was for the needs of the “Kings” series, an original creation broadcast from November 29, 2018 on Canal + Décalé. It brings together a group of women actresses, comedians or singers who put themselves in the shoes of men for a day. This daring series plays on genres to break down prejudices. Ludivine Sagnier and Cécile de France also lent themselves to the game. The channel indicated its intentions: “To understand the problem of the construction of gender, while denouncing the long road that remains to be traveled by men to free themselves from the injunctions that the weight of centuries has placed on their shoulders”.

Amel Bent recounts the experience through the first excerpts broadcast on November 18 in “Clique Dimanche”: “Psychologically speaking, it’s something to live, it’s quite special. From the moment I was given this beard and set foot in the street, I quickly realized that there were huge differences, if only in the eyes of others (…) I got a lot of middle fingers, a lot of contempt from the female sex. It was really super hard, because I really got into the game. After this experience, when a man approached me, I was much cooler. I put on filters because frankly, it’s not easy to be a guy.
