Nicolas Lacroix in Too Nice
To bookDescription
Nicolas Lacroix is too kind and he readily admits it. He also loves making people happy and making them laugh; it's always been that way. Ever since primary school, where he used to reenact sketches he'd seen on TV, he's dreamed of the stage.<br> He's going to make it through social media. Encouraged by his family and friends, he posts his first video on TikTok, which is an immediate success. A year and a half later, more than 1.5 million people follow him daily.<br> Because he believes more in hard work than in talent, he takes his time and it is ultimately GuiHome who will take him on stage by producing his first show.<br><br> It's about an overly nice guy who can't say no but thinks plenty. He observes the world, talks about what he knows, makes light of his coming out, worries about the future of language when Wejdene replaces Baudelaire, and imagines a virtual assistant acting as his therapist. He always arrives at the same conclusion, the one that's been around since the dawn of time: things were better before. Nicolas embraces his slightly old-fashioned side, that of a nostalgic young man caught up in a world that's moving too fast. Seemingly without effort, he reveals a lot about the anxieties of his generation.<br><br> Today, even though social media plays a significant role, he knows that an artist isn't built in a day, and he fears a crash and burn. Resting on his laurels, especially virtual ones, is out of the question. So, he keeps working tirelessly to earn every laugh and every round of applause, and he loves it.
