Profile

Losique studied theatre at La Sorbonne in Paris. She first became famous as the host of Box-office, a cinema television magazine. Quebec comedians soon parodied her as a ditzy gal with the perpetual giggles, but later ventures showed her potential as a businesswoman, now producing a vast array of trendy television shows through IDI seen across Canada.
She also produced songs and shot risqué music videos. She also shot one for a retake on Brigitte Bardot's Tu veux ou tu veux pas, which is itself suggestive. In her producing career, she has shown an interest for the sex industry, hosting some of her sex-related shows herself. This earned her to be called "Sex mogul" in an article of alternative weekly The Montreal Mirror. Her propensity for seductive provocation has created an image and a slight controversy, which she parodied in her mockumentary Bimbo, fantasmes et réalité.
Losique cast herself, along with pop singer Jacynthe, in her own adaptation of The Simple Life, La Vie rurale. She is also responsible for the importation of the American reality show The Surreal Life and the British comedy The Office. She had bought rights to an adaptation of the Thierry Ardisson's French talk show 93, Faubourg Saint-Honoré but chose not to renew them for financial reasons.
