Following Charles's assessment at the Château de la Star Academy, the student was particularly criticized by the teachers. They judged that he had learned nothing from the last few weeks. As a result, he finds himself on the bench of nominees.
What a start to the week for the students of Star Academy 2024! The students who had to overcome Noah's departure learned that surprises would be at the heart of the coming days and the prime, broadcast this Friday, November 15. So, they do not know which artists will be present, except Julien Doré and Alyocha Schneider. On Monday, November 11, they were also informed that they would be taking surprise assessments… in an hour! Marine was disappointed in her and showed her a little too much to the teachers. Franck judged his performance “ignoble” et “disgusting“. When Charles's turn came, he sang Jour 1 from Louane. A title he feared.
Charles (Star Academy) criticized by Hugues Hamelynck: “It's a waste actually.”
Once out of the assessment room, the teachers debriefed and did not pull any punches. Marlène Schaff revealed what she had written in her notebook: “Very nice vocal arrangement. No connection to text“. She then recalls having worked with him at length last week. “We're coming out of an interpretation challenge where I spent, I think, between three and four hours of solo coaching work with him“, she confides, “I told myself he was going to keep something… well…“An opinion shared by his colleagues and in particular by Hugues Hamelynck:”It's a waste actually a little bit anyway“. To which the stage expression teacher adds: “It's really a shame“.
Michael Goldman doubts: “Are you building a career just on that and a voice? I don't know ?“
For her part, Malika Benjelloun evoked “Charles' style” in dance and did not seem disappointed, on the contrary. Sofia Morgavi emphasizes that he “a personality“and wonders if it is necessary”modifier” : “He has a childish charisma that is light. It doesn't bother me because I'm transported“. Two positive opinions which are unfortunately countered by the very blunt words of the director, Michael Goldman. “I see the insolent and laughing little kid, I love that, but are you building a career just on that and a voice? I don't know“, he admits. Unfortunately, the teachers decided to nominate him alongside Emma and Masséo.
