Benoît continues his crazy race in Don’t forget the words and climbs into second position in the ranking of the greatest Maestros in the history of the game. He thus dethrones Laurens, whom Nagui does not fail to tease on the set of the show .
Arrived in Don’t forget the lyrics since December 2, 2024, Benoît, a thirty-year-old photographer based in Maine-et-Loire, has been unlocking new records day after day. With 70 victories to his credit, he has to date a prize pool of no less than 459,000 euros. An amount reached during the broadcast on Monday January 13, which instantly propelled him to the second step of the podium of the greatest Maestros in the history of the game. Only a small place separates him from first place, for the hour held by Margaux and her 530,000 euros prize pool obtained in 59 victories! As for Laurens, Maestro of the show between October and November 2023, he was dethroned and relegated to third place.
Nagui, teasing, allows himself a little tackle on Laurens
At the start of the show, Nagui couldn’t help but make a joke. For, although the Maestros show great kindness towards each other, Don’t forget the lyrics remains a competition after all. By introducing the new ranking, Nagui evokes the congratulatory wishes sent by Laurens to Benoît, before attempting a little irony: “Always with this image of the Maestros who make you believe that they are happy to be surpassed, and therefore Laurens is delighted that you are at the same level as him”, he said to the attention of the former Maestro, who was not present on the set to defend himself. The audience laughs heartily, but the chief champion denies Nagui’s implication and responds to the host’s teasing by adopting a very blunt tone: “Without a doubt, I’m sure”.
Benoît talks about his relationship with Laurens
Despite his little joke, Nagui puts things into perspective and notes that in fact, Laurens has never dried up his praise for Benoît and has always shown himself to be proud support of the candidate: “You have to be honest, he encouraged you on social media, he even encouraged you with personal messages”. A statement supported by the Maestro who wishes to provide further details on his links with Laurens: “We are friends, after all, basically”, he explains. Benoît does not hesitate to point out that one of the great pillars of relationships between maestros is solidarity, and that the one he shares with Laurens is no exception. Who better placed to grasp the challenges and difficulty of the musical marathon imposed by the game than another Maestro?
