The [Oscar nominee](http://time.com/4481910/jonah-hill-mosh-pit-kanye-west-concert/ "undefined") was mocked on CanalPlus’ program _Le Grand Journal_ by Ornella Fleury, [_The Hollywood Reporter_](http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/jonah-hill-cancels-press-promotion-929520 "undefined") reports_,_ who told him her sexual fantasy would involve Hill making her laugh then “all of a sudden, \[bringing his\] friends DiCaprio and Brad Pitt, and then going away.” “I’m glad I came on this show to get ridiculed by your local weather girl,” Hill responded. He later canceled the rest of his press tour in France. Fleury has since issued a formal apology. “Jonah, the problem is that for 10 years I have lived with you through your films,” she said, according to [_The Local_](http://www.thelocal.fr/20160913/french-weather-girl-says-sorry-after-ridiculing-jonah-hill "undefined"). “In fact, Jonah, I really had the impression that I knew you so last Friday I thought I was just messing around with a friend, but the reality is that we are not friends.” Hill stars alongside Miles Teller in _War Dogs_, the true story of childhood friends who exploited a government procurement opportunity to land a $300 million contract to supply the Afghan army in 2007. > [](https://twitter.com/JonahHill/status/769204641112399872) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4496708/jonah-hill-grand-journal-ornella-fleury/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4496708/jonah-hill-grand-journal-ornella-fleury/"},"headline":"Jonah Hill Really Didn't Like Being Mocked by a French TV Presenter","datePublished":"2016-09-16T12:30:50.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:36:39.314Z","description":"The War Dogs star had a sense of humor failure and canceled his remaining press dates","url":"https://time.com/4496708/jonah-hill-grand-journal-ornella-fleury/","keywords":["celebrities","Newsfeed","Jonah Hill"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltaf8f1fd5b4d92da7/6988a664fb4eac5b8f88f24c/ap_729236786829.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Kate Samuelson","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/kate-samuelson/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltaf8f1fd5b4d92da7/6988a664fb4eac5b8f88f24c/ap_729236786829.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Spain: War Dogs - photocall in Madrid","caption":"Spain: War Dogs - photocall in Madrid","creditText":"Oscar Gonzalez—Oscar Gonzalez/NurPhoto/Sipa USA","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/celebrities/","name":"celebrities"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4496708/jonah-hill-grand-journal-ornella-fleury/","name":"Jonah Hill Really Didn't Like Being Mocked by a French TV Presenter"}}]}] ```
