The son of Valerie Donzelli and Jeremy Elkaim has been performing as a single in Paris since March 7. To promote it, he posted a humorous video on YouTube with Virginie Efira.
Gabriel Donzelli, son of Valerie Donzelli and Jeremy Elkaim, plays a single on stage at La Scala in Paris from March 7 to June 15. It’s almost done. To promote his show, he called out Virginie Ephyra in a sketch broadcast on Instagram and YouTube, where we see him trying to “fit in,” absolutely wanting to share the stage with her.
Alone or accompanied
Gabriel Donzeli was the basis of the film directed by his mother. War has been declared, released in 2011. Diagnosed with cancer at the age of one, he battled the disease for years until he fully recovered as a teenager. It is this “extraordinary” journey, says the La Scala website, that he recounts in his show, not without laughing at it, with disarming naturalness. While he began performing at the Petit Palais des Glaces last October to rave reviews, the 21-year-old is now set to play a bigger venue. In advance, he asked Virginia Efira to appear at the professional meeting held between them. Feeling abandoned over coffee, the actress explains that she is trying to freshen up again with much more “modern” references. “I need the Internet, youth. […]. What I want now are Lena situations. It’s Twitch,” he explains to a surprised Gabriel Donzelli.
A few moments later, he seriously remembers that he received a “Cesar and an Oscar” after filming with the biggest stars. Faced with the incomprehension of her interlocutor (Virginia Efira has never won an Oscar), she reveals that she is actually… a famous Australian actress. “I’m also Margot Robbie in all her movies,” she explains, before slipping into a cryptic tone. “I cannot say more. I rely on your discretion.”
Giraffe and Martin Scorsese
Only after this outburst of absurd humor does he remove the veil of the real reason for this meeting. . To better convince Gabrielle Donzelli, who received a César in the category of best actress in 2023. See Paris again tries his best and reads him one of the sketches he wrote titled The sneezing giraffe “You will have to imitate the animal. It’s a giraffe with a cold, except the snakes don’t know it, so it slithers out from underneath. It twists, you see,” she explains, happily tangling her brushes. Alas. The 21-year-old reminds him that he does not want to do a duet, the one who built his performance on harmony. But according to the insistence of the woman who starred in her mother’s last film. Love and forests , he finally relented after the actress told him that a certain Martin Scorsese would be going to see the two of them play. A touch of quirky humor that needs to be savored before seeing the show. With or without a giraffe.
