"The Voice" Coach Amel Bent Speaks Out Against Online Racist Attacks

From Voice kids to the adult version of the talent show, the singer Amel Bent is the victim of racist attacks. "When I take the seat of The Voice and see the comments on Twitter... We still have a long way to go! Not everyone is ready to have a "rebeu" in the seat," she explains in La Face Katché, a show offered by Yahoo.

Born to a Moroccan mother and an Algerian father, she remembers one of the very racist messages she received: "I was told: ’Go do The Voice in Algiers.’" She specifies that this type of reaction does not concern everyone, "but there is a part of the population that is not ready, that is afraid." These racist attacks have led the interpreter of Ma philosophie to remove Twitter from her phone.
