Toulouse. Nacer, elected Mister Magnifique Occitanie 2022: “six years ago I weighed 125 kg!”
Emergency paramedic, 27, Nacer Boucherit was crowned Mister Magnifique Occitanie 2022. Proud of his regional scarf, he is aiming for the national competitions in Tours in October.
What prompted you to take part in the Miss and Mister Magnificent Occitanie contest?
I have always been interested in the world of fashion, modeling and in general everything that is chic. But it was above all a challenge with myself, to regain my self-confidence. Before 2016, I was 125 kg. For three years I motivated myself and thanks to sports I managed to lose 30 kg. Before, I was a lifeless body. Today, I have confidence in myself again.
How will this title change your life?
On a personal level, this accomplishment has allowed me to regain my self-confidence, thanks to the compliments and encouragement of those who believed in me and who find me beautiful. On the professional level, I was contacted to animate several events or for roles in short films. Today, I’m an emergency paramedic and, although I love this job, I’m going to quit it to go back to my studies and go into modeling all the way. In short, what happiness!
