Monday to Friday, Jordan de Luxe on C8 receives a guest to discuss its current affairs. The opportunity to obtain exclusive information and to exchange for an hour with your interlocutor during a casual face to face. Thus, this January 20, the 35-year-old young man received Céline Géraud. A face well known to sports fans on France Télévisions. Indeed, the former judokate stopped fighting on the tatami mats at the end of the 1980s. Thus, it was on television that she wanted to launch herself into integrating France Télévisions in 1993. On C8, the mother of three girls returned to her journey but also spoke about the departure of Nelson Monfort and that of Philippe Candeloro from France 2.
A duo who collaborated for twenty years to comment on figure skating competitions. However, the public service group has decided to end their collaboration. Thus, the candidate of “Dancing with the stars” and the former athlete were replaced by Marie-Christelle Maury and Nathalie Péchalatalways accompanied by Annick Dumont. The trio officiated for the first time during the French Grand Prix which took place in Angers November 1 and 2. But what do Céline Géraud think of this change in size?
“I think it’s good. This is very good news. Nelson Monfort and Christophe Candeloro had the heyday of skating. It was a pair that was truly inseparable.” she begins by declaring. It turns out that Nelson leaves France Télévisions because he is retiredPhilippe Candeloro was a consultant. Afterwards I think they wanted to refresh, change (the leaders of the group, editor’s note). They are two superb people (…) It’s a new cycle. It’s not inconsistent I think“, she concluded.
Between Nelson Monfort and Philippe Candeloro: it’s not really over
If on February 7, the former sports commentator will embark on a new adventure by joining the new season of “Dancing with the Stars”, he does not forget his strong friendship with his colleague Philippe Candeloro. So, both launch into comedy et will perform in a show called It’s Patinating in Tokyo. The pitch? While Philippe and Nelson are in Tokyo to present the final of the Olympic figure skating games, their program is disrupted by the discovery ofa corpse in the bathtub of Philippe Candeloro’s room. In order to discover the culprit and his motivations, they will have to follow his instructions while trying not to compromise the competition.
-Three dates are already offered to the public. Thus, both will meet again next January 30 at the Longjumeau Theater. Then, they meet at the Théâtre Fémina in Bordeaux on Saturday February 22 and at the Gare du Midi in Biarritz on Sunday February 23. Two dates which will not encroach on Nelson Monfort’s participation in the show “Dancing with the Stars” which will begin on February 7. A show which will now take place on Friday and no longer on Saturday.
