Brigitte Bardot's New Book Slams Saint-Tropez's Wealthy Takeover
Brigitte Bardot, the iconic French actress and long-time resident of Saint-Tropez, has spoken out against the changes in her adopted home. In her new book 'Mon BBcedaire', she laments the loss of the resort's charm and criticizes it for becoming a playground for the wealthy. The book also contains her personal verdicts on leading French men of her generation and reflects her controversial views on LGBTQ+ issues.
Bardot, who rarely speaks to the media, has published a book of handwritten notes, starting with the letter A and ending with Z. In it, she expresses her dismay at the transformation of Saint-Tropez, stating 'nothing remains of what made it charming'. She criticizes the Riviera resort for being overrun by billionaires and losing its unique character.
The book also includes Bardot's personal opinions on prominent French men from her generation. She shares her thoughts on Jean-Paul Belmondo and Alain Delon, among others. However, it's her views on LGBTQ+ issues that have sparked controversy. The book contains homophobic and anti-transgender comments, reflecting Bardot's well-known controversial stance on these matters.
Bardot's new book, 'Mon BBcedaire', is a collection of her personal thoughts and observations. While it offers a glimpse into her views on various topics, it's her criticism of Saint-Tropez and her support for right-wing politicians, including Marine Le Pen, that have grabbed headlines. Despite her controversial views, Bardot remains a significant figure in French culture and history.
