Comedian Laurent Baffie expressed deep remorse for certain questions he posed to Audrey Crespo-Mara during an interview for his YouTube show *Coloscopie*, which aired on July 14, 2026, marking the first anniversary of the death of her husband, Thierry Ardisson. During the interview, Baffie asked Crespo-Mara difficult 'Would you rather' questions, such as whether she would prefer to forget Ardisson's face or his voice, or if she would sell their family home or not be buried with him. Crespo-Mara, visibly upset, responded with insults like 'you're annoying' and 'you're perverted'. Appearing on *C à Vous* on November 12, 2026, to promote his book *Le Dictionnaire de Laurent Baffie, la totale*, Baffie confessed to host Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine that he was disgusted by his own behavior. He stated, 'I detest myself. The 'Would you rather' game is plague or cholera. It's ignoble by definition, and I fit that description; I have this bad nature.' However, he emphasized his deep affection for Crespo-Mara, adding, 'When I saw the interview again, I hated myself.' The relationship between Baffie and Crespo-Mara is rooted in their close friendship with the late Thierry Ardisson. They previously met in a restaurant where Baffie made a joke about knowing Ardisson and his daughter, prompting Crespo-Mara to slap him before greeting him. Despite this rough start, they forged a strong bond, and later in October 2026, Crespo-Mara hosted Baffie on her podcast *Aura*, where they recalled their initial meeting. [1]
