Richard Gasquet is the French tennis player who tested positive for cocaine at a tour event in May of this year. Gasquet protested and claimed to be innocent, and was exonerated by an anti-doping panel in July, though a lawsuit filed by Gasquet concerning the accusations was dismissed this week in a Parisian court.
The French Love a Good Cocaine and Tennis Joke

That was his actual defense, and his lawyer said it without bursting into laughter and falling to the floor. Lawyers: when they’re good, they’re perrrrrrrrfect.)
↵In the meantime, Gasquet somewhat ill-advisedly agreed to make a commercial for Head and Shoulders dandruff shampoo. Dandruff takes the form of white flakes that…well, let quality French satire take it from there after you watch the original first.

↵Ah, cocaine jokes. When, if ever, will you lose your luster? (Answer: never.)
