Kev Adams' America's Got Talent Triumph Draws Macron's Tweet and Comedian's Quiet Reply

French comedian Kev Adams performed a sketch on cultural differences between France and the United States during his audition for America’s Got Talent in early June 2025. The jurors, including Simon Cowell and Sofía Vergara, praised his act, describing him as one of the best comedians on the show, and his YouTube clip amassed 1.5 million views within a month, securing him a place in the quarter‑finals.

President Emmanuel Macron posted a congratulatory message on X after Adams' appearance. Adams chose not to respond, explaining at the Just for Laughs festival in Montreal that commenting on such success “has little interest” and that “it is unnecessary to reply to every comment.”
