While the students of the class of 2023 made their grand return to the castle for the special tour week, one of them was missing. According to information from journalist Clément Garin, the production has decided to take him to court for “violation of clauses” and “defamation”.

Djebril denounces “inequal treatment” of which he was a victim during the tour of the Star Academy
Shortly after the end of the event tour of the Star AcademyDjebril explained that he did not feel respected as an artist and claimed to have suffered discrimination. “I am closing a chapter in which, week after week, I could grow in the goodwill of my comrades, counterbalanced by an ambient climate which forced me to note that 'I wasn't in my place'. A context in which I did not feel respected as a person or as an artist. However, I believed that the person I am, with everything she represents despite herself, had her place there. Maybe it was a little naive of me.”
