Celebrities continue to reveal themselves on the set of Chez Jordan, broadcast on C8. With a host always ready to ask the most personal questions to draw out the smallest secrets of his guests – and especially the darkest – each &show gives rise to revelations of all kinds. On January 14, this concerned the actress Anémone, a legendary figure in French cinema who died on April 30, 2019.

Nicolas Vitiello, who became known in Popstars and thanks to the group Whatfor, was indeed Jordan's guest. Having already played alongside Anemone, he was able to express himself on the actress and talk, among other things, about her mental health. “It was the dream of my life to play with her” begins by saying the singer and actor. “I had this incredible luck…” he continues, before emphasizing that in his opinion, Anémone was “not from this planet“. Later in the interview, he then talks about a conversation he had with the actress's son.

Anémone's son thinks his mother was maybe autistic

“I talked about it a little with his son Jacob – who is a sweet boy – after he passed away. And I don't know much about it yet, but I think Anemone was autistic asperger. She ticks a lot of boxes, she had social difficulties… And also restricted interests, a passion for certain subjects for several weeks…” describes the singer.

So many factors that, apparently, made Anemone's son say that she could be on the spectrum of autism. Always looking for gossip, Jordan also asked Nicolas Vitiello if Anemone was “a pain in the neck”. The latter answered in the negative before launching into an anecdote that took place while he was on tour with the actress and screenwriter. He explains that while they were rehearsing together, he learned that she lived quite close to his house. So he offered her to pick her up by car so they could go to rehearsals together.

Anemone wanted to “test” Nicolas Vitiello

Only one day, Anemone seemed to have “wanted to test him”. Nicolas Vitiello explains: “She bumped into me, she told me that I was picking her up too early and that it was unbearable. So I pulled over to the side, and I told her that she could get off and take the RER. And after that day, we became best friends!” he concludes with a laugh. Moments that he will not soon forget and that he cherishes even more since Anemone's death.
