The First Lady of France, Brigitte Macron, sparked controversy after she used an offensive term towards feminist activists during a show.

Brigitte Macron, the First Lady of France, is in the midst of a scandal after using a derogatory term, 'dirty c***s', referring to feminist activists. The incident took place at the Folies Bergère theater in Paris, where Brigitte Macron attended a show by comedian Ary Abittan, who has previously been accused of rape.

In a recorded backstage moment, Brigitte Macron responded to Ary Abittan's concerns about the protests the previous evening, laughing and stating that 'if there are dirty c***s, we will throw them out'. The protests were organized by members of the feminist collective #NousToutes, who interrupted the show, wearing masks and having the word 'rapist' written on them. Brigitte's comments generated swift reactions from activists, including actress Judith Godrèche and MEP Manon Aubry, who criticized the insults directed at women. The leader of the Greens, Marine Tondelier, called the remarks 'seriously offensive', emphasizing that a First Lady should not make such comments.
