Les 12 Coups de midi: what is Émilien’s job?
A history student
Since September 25, 2023, loyal viewers of 12 shots of noon have regular meetings with Jean-Luc Reichmann and Émilien, the undisputed master of the game. For more than a year, Emilien has been the great champion of the program, but in everyday life, he is student in History in Toulouse, underlines the magazine Current Woman.
A modest lifestyle
As a student, Émilien is not rolling in gold. In this regard, on October 9, he confided that he had no “large financial resources” to the magazine Tele-Leisure. Before starting the show, the current master of midday lived thanks to his scholarships and seasonal jobs. Today, this is no longer the case, because as he states: “earning so much money allows me to live and study more comfortably”. There is no doubt that, like Eric, a former master of noonthe show completely changed Emilien's life.
Émilien's professional ambitions
For the moment, Émilien continues his academic course while participating at the same time in the show The 12 strokes of noon. The young man knows very well what he wants to do with his life once he finishes his studies. Indeed, aged in his twenties, he aspires to become teacher at the end of his studies. He loves teaching and wants to make a career in it.

A participation that could never have taken place
Everyone is impressed by the general knowledge level by Émilien, but did you know that he was rejected in the casting? This is surprising when we know his level of general knowledge, and yet, Émilien was indeed failed for his premier casting of the show. It was only following the encouragement of his grandparents that he tried his luck again and the rest of the story, everyone knows it. Emilien has been the lunch master for 13 months now!
The ultimate master of noon
From his very first participation until today, Émilien continues to break records. With more than 387 victories to his credit, more than a million and a half euros in winnings and 14 mysterious stars won, Émilien is theultimate noon master of the famous game show by Jean-Luc Reichmann, surpassing the exploits of Bruno Hourcade, former master of midday who has gone down in history. No one has done better than Emilien but the champion does not intend to stop there. In fact, Jessica's companion has set a new goal: reaching the bar 400 victories.
Enjoy every victory
Despite all his victories and his numerous gains, Émilien keeps his feet on the ground. He does not experience no feeling of invincibility and knows that defeat will come at one point or another. “Knowing how to play is knowing how to lose.” he said. In the meantime, he enjoys each victory and the incredible adventure he is experiencing.
