That’s it, it’s over… Laurent Delahousse officially announces this Sunday July 30, 2023 in his 1 p.m. news from France 2 his departure… on vacation. “You have an appointment tonight with Julien Benedetto”, announces the journalist to his viewers, leaving the reins to his joker whom he knights at the same time by putting a photo of the latter on his Twitter. And yes, this joker role seems to suit Julien Benetto well… for the moment, and the latter does not fail to thank his eldest with a response to his tweet: “Thank you for this delicate attention”. But the 42-year-old journalist has many other ambitions, as he confided in Télé-Loisirs, this Friday, July 28, 2023. Especially since the man also replaces Julian Bugier during the week at the presentation of daily information , from July 31 until August 18. An office on a public service that he knows well… and with which he maintains excellent relations. From there to give him desires… “I have the ambition to go higher. The goal is to one day be at the head of a great JT as a holder”, did he he indeed announced to our colleagues. But, for the time being, Julien Benedetto still has a “double hat”: that of hosting a “slice on Franceinfo and (his) role as joker of the major editions” on France 2. A professional experience that allows him to claim a certain notoriety. Even if the man also wishes, in parallel, to devote himself to the writing of a “documentary on the history of (his) two Italian grandfathers”. The latter having “left their country in ruins after the Second World War to come and work in the coal mines of northern France”, confided the journalist to our colleagues.

Competitor at heart
And when the stakes are not created in the alcoves of France Télévisions, Julien Benedetto notably releases the media pressure by playing tennis. He could even have considered a professional career in this environment! During his adolescence, he rubbed shoulders with big names in the ATP rankings: “Until I was 15, I studied sport with Nicolas Mahut or my almost namesake Julien Benneteau. I shared my room with Pierre-Henri Mathieu. I had the chance to participate in very prestigious competitions, such as Les Petits As de Tarbes. I was also in the same table as Roger Federer, and I had passed one lap more than him”, he had already revealed in the columns of Télé-Magazine. From now on, while waiting to realize his dream of becoming the holder of his own news, and perhaps to outdo Alice Taglioni’s companion, the journalist devotes himself to his passion, that of returning the ball!
