Everyone has Pop-tarts, one has the Body Toner Special Edition, one will have the Willy Waller, and one will have the LCD shovel, but who will have this year's Olivier?

Michel Beaudet, creator of Tetesaclaques.tv is nominated for The Olivier of the Year!
The 9th edition of the Olivier Gala will be presented Sunday May 27, 2007. The evening will be animated by Martin Petit. The statuettes with the effigy of large comic Olivier Guimond will come to crown the efforts made by 15 humorists or group of humorists that made us laugh from January 1st to December 31, 2006. The award ceremony, viewed last year by millions, will be televised directly from Radio-Canada, studio 42, on Sunday, May 27, 7:30 p.m. Many Quebec artists are nominated in various categories such as best comic, best show, best writing and directing, etc. However, Michel Beaudet is competing with 9 other artists for the big title; the crème de la crème of up-and-coming French Canadian talent for most promising creative, clever, and very funny artist.
The Olivier is granted by the "Association des professionnels de l'industrie de l'humour (APIH), which translates to Association of Humor Professionals, a professional honorary organization, which recognizes excellence in many aspects of Quebec's humor industry. Finalists for the Olivier of the Year are chosen by a jury but it is the public that will determine the winner by voting during the gala either by phone or by Internet: http://www.radio-canada.ca/special/olivier/vote/.

Created 9 months ago with 3 million unique visitors a month, Têtes à claques.tv is the most popular French Internet site visited in Canada. It is the 1st web site that has ever been nominated. Humor is now everywhere, TV, Radio, Theater, Internet sites!

"I have created a monster that has become bigger than me", said Michel Beaudet to the Journal de Montréal.
