I kissed two out of three.
Marie-Chantal Perron was the most recent guest of the popular Well-Done segment on the show Jeannot’s Beautiful Sunday, hosted by none other than Jean-Sébastien Girard, who always knows how to spotlight his guests… while not sparing them a little heat, of course.
Get your scoop
Have you seen anything? Discretion guaranteed.
Because honestly, what’s a well-done moment without a few extra degrees?
Aside from Marie-Chantal’s appearance, not in the kitchen but behind the mic with the host, he revealed that she had a very specific nickname: Minou. He even said he had recently learned this little name at a meeting, where everyone was calling her that… without him initially knowing who they were talking about.
Why… Minou?
«Hey, it’s been a while! It’s my friend, Roy…», she says, before being promptly interrupted by Jean-Sébastien, who had the same reaction as many people when they hear that name.
«Roy Dupuis», he exclaims.
«Oui, well, there’s only one… Roy, I don’t know, he must have thought I looked like a little street-cat or something. So for years he’s been calling me Minou. One time he told me: I’m calling you Minou not because you resemble a cat, but because you land on your feet, all the time», she explains, under the host’s attentive listening, who can’t help but note how nice a reason that is.
«Sure enough, when Roy gives you a nickname, you run with it. If he called me a trash can, I’d be like: Yes, Mr. Roy (…)», says Michelle Desrochers, the guest host for this roast.
At that moment, Girard pointed out that their friendship is remarkable, since Marie-Chantal and Roy are nonetheless “slightly different.”
A Relationship That Has Endured Over Time, Both Unique and Very Strong
«Yeah… yeah, that’s true», admits the guest.
«You could get on each other’s nerves for various reasons, the two of you», adds the host.
«Yeah, but we’ve been friends for more than 30 years, and maybe we poke at each other sometimes, but he’s my brother and I’m his little sister, and that’s just how it is (…)», she testifies, clearly very attached to this beloved actor who holds a special place in her heart.
A testament that the finest friendships, and the strongest bonds, sometimes form between people who don’t look alike at all, but who understand each other like no one else.
And as the famous saying goes: «Qui se ressemble s’assemble… et les opposés s’attirent.» A line that fits their relationship perfectly.
A French Kiss with Roy Dupuis?
Toward the end of this intimate moment with Marie-Chantal, the host pulled out his favorite game, “Marry, French-kiss, Kill”, asking her to rank three longtime close friends: Claude Legault, Roy Dupuis and David La Haye, into categories.
«Oh, boy! Well, I didn’t french-kiss all three. I french-kissed two of the three», she confirms.
«Which one didn’t you french-kiss», asks the host, very intrigued.
«I didn’t french-kiss Roy», she asserts.
«I’ve never touched Roy Dupuis’s lips», adds Marie-Chantal.
«Ah! I don’t want to kill Roy. I can’t kill Roy. I’d marry Roy, but my God (…) we’d end up killing each other, for example (…) I’d frencher Ti-Claude then… Ah, I don’t want to kill Dave, but he’s distracted, he’s going to get punched (…)», she selects, provoking laughter.
She then confirmed she had dated Claude Legault for a period of time.
«We dated, Claude and I, at a certain time (…) it’s been a while, we were young, we were babies», confirms the actress, subtly implying they shared moments even more intimate than a simple kiss.
Did you know there had already been a romance between these two actors?
Roy’s Revelations About the Past
Let’s recall that forty years after Arlette Cousture’s novel was published and thirty-five years after the airing of the series The Daughters of Caleb, we have a documentary animated by Marina Orsini, The Daughters of Caleb: The Story of a Passion.
In this TV project, we get to see Marina and Roy Dupuis talk about that era when they were true stars. Remember that Roy has been fairly private when it comes to public appearances, as well as interviews.
It was, therefore, a precious moment: to see him open up with vulnerability, not only about his memories, but also about the repercussions that role had on him.
Notably regarding his relationship with alcohol, at a time when he felt constantly watched and scrutinized.
