There were two things I used to do to seduce girls: jokes and music. Since I'm not a great pianist, jokes were my thing.

My dream is not Hollywood, but to perform my act in English to 30 people in a Soho comedy club, to show New Yorkers what they look like from the French point of view.

I go to New York to see live shows, not movies.

Actually, I don't like dogs. I'm from Morocco, and people there don't like animals.

I don't feel any need to play the role of the clown. In my private life I take a break from humor.

My name, my origins, my background and my experiences are what leveraged my success. The angle of the immigrant, through which I examined the reality in France, distinguished me.
