Refreshing pops and Têtes à Claques.tv

I GOT MY SIX PACK MADE OF GLASS!

Monique, Raoul and the Captain of DC-132 are very excited to have their face put on soda pop bottles!

Fresh and Fun!

Couche-Tard, one of Canada's largest convenient store chains, Lassonde Inc, packagers of Oasis, Rougement and Everfresh, and Têtes à Claques partnered up for the production of Fruite-Bulles, fruit-flavoured drinks. The drinks are sold as of today in Couche-Tard corner stores and come in three flavours: orange, cream soda, and grape. It is the second business agreement with the company Lassonde from Québec (the 1st was a Fruité juice placed in one of the Tetesaclaques clips). The sequence of events was only logical to have the flight captain on the grape bottle since the popular clip included an incident with a grape juice from Lassonde. "There is no atomic bomb in the canisse".

Limited stock and edition:
Only available during the Summer 2007 - Total production of 600 000 bottles!





Business is booming indeed!

Kellogg has seen an increase in the sell of Pop-Tarts with the Halloween clip and will have a contest in June on the Tetesaclaques.tv web site. The winner will receive a one-year supply.

How about T-SHIRTS? Zellers will have them in July!

Been there, done that, got the T-shirt!

WOO! Very exciting news indeed!

This Year's Olivier Winner is not Michel Beaudet

This is what I had planned to post.

CONGRATULATIONS! MICHEL BEAUDET IS THE WINNER !!! L'OLIVIER DE L'ANNÉE 2007.

Perhaps next year since the award was presented to les Grandes gueules. They were particularly distinguished with the official Olivier.
Mario Tessier and Gaudet obtained the Olivier of the year for their exceptional contribution to the Québécois humour. They also gained an award for this year's humour album of the year. They recently put an end to their 15 year daily radio show.

Also view his interview.

What a sport, Michel Beaudet presented an award with the help of Uncle Tom's Doodely Polisher. A feather duster to polish the statuette. Once scrubed, the Olivier award transforms into an Oscar! Wow! Amazing! Does it work in reverse also?


You may view Michel's interview (in French) right here.

Once again congratulations for being nominated. Better luck next year!

Click Master? Interview with Reader's Digest

Thanks to Webmomma for the great snap

I was very excited when I noticed the back cover of the Sélection du Reader's Digest yesterday at Loblaws...

Interview with Têtes à Claques!

Michel Beaudet with the recognisable fake, grotesque teeth, which he puts in while his face is being filmed. So many offers "even dentists have proposed dentures for my clay characters".

''Everyone knew that Internet would eventually surpass television, however, that was only an hypothesis; there was no precedent. Today, it is proven; Têtes à claques has the largest audience ratings in French in Canada.

"We have over 3,000,000 unic visitors per month, which means 3 million people visit the site at least once a month. It is more than any tv show''.

The above picture first published on this blog!

Têtesàclaques vs Quebec Pluriel

Francophone press is now reporting that Quebec Pluriel will bring the matter to Human Rights Commission since Salambo refused to remove the cannibal clip from the web site and apologize.

Têtes à claques' intention is clearly visible on their web site:
"To all our Fans:
Rest assure. We have no intention in removing the "cannibale" clip. Thank you for the thousands e-mails of support and words of encouragement. Prosperous life to all who love to laugh!"

Michel Beaudet in a boiling pot?

Here is Michel Beaudet's reaction to the demand letter* received on April 18, 2007, from Quebec Pluriel demanding to pull the short animated clip "cannibal" off the web.

Michel Beaudet, responded yesterday over the controversy that the clip “is insulting, degrading and inadmissible” during an interview with Le Journal de Montreal. “It is ridiculous and sad”.

For Quebec Pluriel, the insult comes from the association between the "cannibal" in the name of Kunta Kinté.

"Ridiculous"
Reached yesterday, he defended there was no intention to cause harm to anyone. “It is absurd!”. He confirmes receiving the demand letter from Quebec Pluriel on April 18, but quickly admits to have put it aside.

"Paranoiac Vision"
“It is a paranoid vision of a small group of people which does not represent the majority”, Michel Beaudet adds, who acknowledges to have used the name Kunta Kinté without putting any thought in it. “Kunta Kinté, was the hero of Roots, a series which I listened to when I was seven or eight years old”.

The people in charge of the movement, which counts only 30 members, discuss the possibility of addressing the matter to the courts to claim moral and punitive damage.

*A demand letter is a formal notice demanding that the addressee perform a legal obligation, such as rectifying a problem, paying a sum of money or honouring a contractual commitment, on specific terms and within a specified time. The letter gives the recipient a chance to perform the obligation without being taken to court.
