Popular French-Moroccan comedian and actor Mustapha El Atrassi has decided to retire from the entertainment industry.

The comedian made the announcement during the last performance of his tour, ironically named “Game Over.”

“This job was screwing me up from the inside,” the 36 years old comedian declared with an open heart to the audience.

The weight of his career weighed on his private life, but especially his mental health, said the comedian.

He also added with so much emotion that “It is a big struggle to get in here, every sday. It is not a normal job. I did it with all my heart, maybe too much.

“I wanted to tell you that your laughter is my tears and that it is time for me to laugh a little.”

Mustapha El Atassi has had a long and rich career, letting him come to an end by highlighting the difficulties that have marked his pattern.

As a result, El Atrassi deleted all his videos on his YouTube channel, as well as all the content on his Instagram account.

His final speech was filmed by his audience and shared on social networks which he concluded to thunderous applause, adding that “If I were to let emotion override this situation, for one sentence, I would say that I will miss you.”
