During a concert on Thursday July 6, the singer Izïa launched into a violent diatribe against the President of the Republic Emmanuel Macron, triggering the opening of an investigation for “public provocation to commit a crime or an offense. “

Izïa blacklisted? The singer, who performed on Thursday July 6 at the opening of the Nuits Guitare festival in Beaulieu-sur-Mer, launched into a violent outing on Emmanuel Macron, describing a scenario in which she imagined the Head of State as Giant piñata, the crowd would be equipped with “huge bats with nails at the end like in Clockwork Orange (Mechanical Orange Editor’s note).” An investigation for “public provocation to commit a crime or misdemeanor” was opened against Izïa Higeli, the Nice prosecutor’s office said on Saturday, an investigation which does not follow up on a complaint, the prosecution said.

Inevitably, this sequence sparked a lively controversy around the daughter of Jacques Higelin. Even worth the cancellation of his next concert, this Thursday, July 13 in Marcq-en-Baroeul, on the occasion of the National Day, announces RMC. According to a press release from the mayor of the city, Bernard Gérard, reported by France 3 Hauts-de-France, “the artist’s arrival, for a public, free and family concert would be in contradiction with the values ??of gathering which prevail during our National Day.”

For her release, Izïa Higelin is taking a big risk. Public provocation to commit a felony or misdemeanor is punishable by five years in prison and a fine of 45,000 euros.
