Career

Vendetta worked briefly in real estate before leaving that business to develop his philosophy of "Bogossitude" and promoting it on his blog and in media. He created a buzz by publishing partly naked videos of him on his personal blog, showing his physique and establishing having a strong personality, by being purposefully arrogant and pretentious in order to gain public response.

a house music single, and won La Ferme Célébrités . He has produced a house music single named "The bogoss Life" on XIII Bis Records,

Critique

While he was part of the cast, and eventual winner, of La Ferme Célébrités 2010, the media had earlier criticized him for being arrogant, conceited and contemptuous. In 2008, David Abiker of France Info compared Vendetta to Paris Hilton, in that he was engaged in a similar race for notoriety. Ecrans called Vendetta "une marchandise dont le contenu n'est rien d'autre que son propre message publicitaire".
