Vincent Dubois, a renowned French humorist, was born on June 14, 1964, in Fontenay-aux-Roses, a picturesque commune located in the Hauts-de-Seine department of Île-de-France, France.
As a young boy, Vincent's early life was marked by his relocation to Abilly, Indre-et-Loire, a charming rural town in the Centre-Val de Loire region, where he was raised alongside his five siblings. This idyllic setting would later serve as the foundation for his creative endeavors, particularly in the realm of comedy.
In 1994, Vincent, alongside his partner Jean-Christian Fraiscinet, co-founded the comedic duo Les Bodin's, which has since become a beloved and iconic part of French humor. Within the duo, Vincent assumes the role of Maria Bodin, a strong-willed and authoritative elderly woman who exudes a commanding presence, not only towards her son but also towards those around her.
Vincent's individuality was shaped by his tenure as an ambulance driver, with a pivotal moment in his career serving as a catalyst for the development of his distinct character. It was during one of his missions, a harrowing and emotionally charged experience, that Vincent was profoundly impacted by the plight of an elderly woman named Maria. Her unfortunate tumble from a Solex, a precarious and potentially disastrous event, left a lasting impression on Vincent, inspiring him to reevaluate his own values and sense of purpose.
