Then a pair of Adidas-Balenciaga sneakers during the same show on November 9, which will have its little moment. “I’m telling you the truth, they called me, they called me to say ‘Do you want them?’ his wife Cyril Hanouna. […] Then addressing a columnist: Do you know them yourself? You like ? You would have liked ? », he adds in this sequence.
