Évelyne Thomas

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Évelyne Thomas (born January 10, 1964) is the hostess of the French talk show C'est mon choix (It's my choice).

In 2003 she was controversially chosen as the new Marianne. The town mayors who elect her went for a populist choice, which was at odds with the views of the Parisian intelligentsia. This was compounded by her stating that, while she was in favour of liberty and fraternity, she opposed equality, which implied making everyone the same (she was confusing the word with "uniformity"). See Liberté, égalité, fraternité.
