Since December 2, 2024, Benoît has been wreaking havoc every evening in Don't forget the lyrics. The champion has one success after another and finally sees his revisions and hard work pay off. Why did you want to participate in Nagui's game? “Already, because I was watching the show, mainly during confinement. I had returned from a trip to India where I had to confine myself in France to my mother. It was a bit like our little get-together. during the day, we watched the show together and I told him: 'I really want to do it, even just sing on set, have fun, sing with the orchestra, it's crazy '”, he told us in a previous interview. Then remember: “And above all, I looked at the candidates, I saw them singing 'the same song' and it fascinated me the fact that they could not get a single word wrong. I then looked at my mother and I said to her : 'Me too, I'm going to do it' I did it like that and I started working like crazy, from the second confinement onwards..
It all started in his mother's living room
It all begins in her mother's living room and the adventure is all the more beautiful as she is present on the set of Don't forget the lyrics to support her son every night. It occupies a very important place in the candidate's life and he also shared a few words with us on this subject. “When I told her that we were going to be able to bring back the chaperones, I told her straight away that I wanted her to be there, because we have a very special relationship with my mother. She’s someone one who has always supported me, even in my wildest dreams”he admitted to us.
“She is very, very, very proud”
And to resume: “It's been two years since she saw me working for Don't forget the lyrics, I think that for a parent, it's not something very down to earth, but she never doubted. She told me always said: 'Go for it!' That's why I was so happy to be able to invite him on set.“. “Besides, I love watching her on TV, it makes me laugh every time the camera is on her, she’s so cute, I think (laughs)”added the current big number 5 of the show.
Then to focus on his father's pride in seeing him shine on France 2: “She is very, very, very proud and then very happy for me, above all. Of course, there was relief because there was also the side where for two years, I worked less, I put less money aside, all that… And there, the aspect of “it works, it paid off”, that relieved her a lot”. How far will Benedict go in Don't forget the lyrics ? He will be back this Tuesday, January 7 on France 2 from 6:35 p.m. with 58 victories to his credit and 403,000 euros in winnings!
