This is news that surely warmed his heart! On December 26, TV Magazine revealed its annual ranking of favorite TV personalities of the French. And for the second year in a row, Faustine Bollaert comes out on top.
A consecration for the host of “It starts today”. “It’s a very strong emotion to feel loved and recognized for your work,” la quadra told the weekly.
Only that, if the wife of the writer Maxime Chattam can count on the love of the public, things would not be so obvious with the management of France 2.
No bonuses for Faustine Bollaert?
It’s very simple, in recent years most of his bonuses have been removed one after the other. A Flirt & a Dance was only broadcast three times in 2022 before disappearing, while “Prodiges Pop” was only entitled to two shows in the fall of 2023 and was not renewed in 2024.
As for the magazine “It’s worth it”, scheduled for Saturday afternoon, it was purely and simply canceled after a few issues in the fall of 2023. “I hope that we will be given time to settle in,” Faustine had called for her wishes in November 2023 in Télé 7 Jours. Failed! But if that was all it was…
Faustine Bollart annoyed
According to our exclusive information, the brunette would have reason to be annoyed, becauseThe management of the channel would try to impose a new editorial line on it for It starts today. “The magazine’s audiences are falling, the arrival of Plus belle la vie on the same slot on TF1 has not helped, and Faustine lost nearly 500,000 viewers in two yearsexplains a source.
The program is regularly below 10%, and it’s starting to get tense France 2. They therefore asked that the editorial line evolve.”
Tears and pathos why not, but it would be required that come witness more celebrities and fewer anonymous people. And it is clear that for several months, it has been a parade. Vincent Niclo, Pascal Bataille and the writer Nathalie Rheims in December; Mika, Gwendal Marimoutou, Jordan de Luxe, Yanis Marshall and Ariane Massenet in November; and in October, it was Ycare, Keen’V and Emma Daumas who revealed their flaws on the air.
The channel would also have ordered the host more numbers covering high-profile criminal cases. “We are asked to do crime in prime time. This was not planned at the start. We didn’t sign to do Hondelatte,” laments our source.
Contacted by us, the France 2 communications department did not react. Faustine stays on course and smiles in front of the cameras, but until when?
