Marguerite had the chance to share her first duet with an artist: it was alongside Hoshi that the academic brilliantly performed “And even after I will love you”. For his part, Pascal Obispo joined Maureen on stage to sing her song “Lucie”. A reinterpretation which sparked mixed reactions from Internet users: “Am I dreaming where Maureen saves the duo?” et “Can Obispo leave the set? He’s embarrassing with his live remix…”we could read on X.
Finally, Julie performed “U-turn” with singer Aaron. But one clothing detail particularly caught the attention of Internet users: the young academician wore a dress already worn by Candice during the previous season. This is not the first time that production has chosen to reuse outfits from former candidates.
The teachers’ challenge
It’s a major challenge that the singing teacher, Sofia, and the director of the academy have thrown at a student who has particularly shone during the last two bonuses. More than 20 years after Jenifer’s performance, still an academic, it was Ebony’s turn, accompanied for the occasion by Belinda Davids, vocal double of Whitney Houston, to cover the hit “I Will Always Love You”. A totally successful performance for the singing teacher, who invented a new word for the occasion: “We are witnessing the division of Ebony.”
The battle for the top 3
This week, the duos were given carte blanche to choose their song. However, an important constraint was imposed on them: the other candidates absolutely must not know what each duo had decided to sing.
Thus, Franck and Julie opted for “Secret” by Louane, while Noah and Charles, after a false start, performed “You are my other” by Lara Fabian. And it was once again the duo Emma and Masseo who won the challenge by choosing “Stay” by Rihanna, thus winning immunity for next week.
The eliminated one is…
Marine and Ulysses having been saved by the public, the academicians had to decide between the remaining duo: Maia and Thomas. It is finally Thomas who leaves the adventure for good.
