To the best of my knowledge, he isn't French.
Your av looks French to me, Rose.
O.K.- I'll translate the humor. The av looks like Jerry Lewis. Jerry Lewis was a movie comedy star- if he were working today he might have been cast in "Dumb & Dumber" or decades ago as one of the "Stooges". He's not widely respected, and he wasn't , even when he was popular & prosperous.
Strangely enough, France inducted him into their Legion of Honor, General Pershing, Supreme commander in World War I, is the only other American to share that honor that I can recall.
The French perplex us- they are the crazy aunt in the american family tree. They gave us the Statue of Liberty. They carried our flag in the Winter Olympics in solidarity.Most of the time they are critical & contrary with us. We never know if they love us or hate us & are just trying to mess with our minds. But like family, we're always there for each other during the darkest hours.

I love Jerry Lewis. His genius is in developing a comic persona that is almost unbearable to watch or listen to--very disturbing stuff. In fact, whenever I put this av up and people PM me to complain about it, the word they use most often is "disturbing."
Also, in the early '60s, after his break-up with Dean Martin, he directed 3-4 films that were incredibly good, even brilliant--the best of which, of course, is The Nutty Professor, although The Ladies' Man is quite good, too. At that time, the French cinema was in the midst of its New Wave, with people like Truffaut and Godard propounding the auteur notion of film direction, and Jerry Lewis in those early-'60s films was certainly an auteur, and I think the French appreciated that the way they appreciated Hitchcock (although I wouldn't put JL in Hitch's class as a film director).
There's actually a book out called Why the French Love Jerry Lewis, which isn't about Jerry, but about French comedy. Here's a link to a brief review:
