“Star Academy” is in full swing and the latest bonus brought back many memories for viewers. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of season 4, which revealed Grégory Lemarchal, the production recalled the former cult teachers Armande Altaï, Oscar Sisto and Kamel Ouali, while Jenifer and Patxi were invited on Saturday evening to sing with the students of the new promotion, alongside Chimène Badi, Roch Voisine or Camille Lou. Between moving tributes to Grégory Lemarchala moving duet between Jenifer and Julie, a dazzling performance by Ebony, choreographed by Kamel Ouali, and the elimination of Masséo, the evening was rich in twists and turns and strong moments. Especially since during the evening, Nikos Aliagas made a big announcement to the candidates. “ Listen carefully, the next bonus will be that of the tour. This means in concrete terms that whoever wins the top 3 battle will automatically qualify for the tour. » blurted the host live!

“In “Star Academy”, there is the word “star”!”
Thus, the three best students of the week – namely Ebony, Franck and Charles – faced each other in a battle with this enormous reward at stake. Each in turn, with an a cappella part, they performed an excerpt from “I am sick” by Serge Lama, which marked the different seasons of the “Star Academy” with the voices of Emma Daumas, Magali Vaé, Sofia Essaïdi , Anisha or Axel. “ The stakes are colossal » warned Nikos Aliagas, while the teachers had to nominate the one who had been the best this evening. And the battle was close between Charles and Ebony. “ He surpassed himself, he sang in tune, I vote for Charles, period! » declared Sofia Morgavi in particular, while Armande Altaï preferred Ebony, just like Michael Goldman or Hugues Hamelynck. “ All three moved me, but I think the one who moved me the most was Charles! » confided Kamel Ouali.
After a tie, it was ultimately Ebony who had the chance to win the greatest number of votes, thanks in particular to Matthieu Gonet: “ In “Star Academy”, there is the word “star” and I saw one tonight “. Thus, the young student won immunity and will therefore not be in danger during the next nominations, which will define the line-up of the “Star Academy” tour. “ Thank you so much ! Thank you Charles, thank you Franck for being the comrades that you are, you have finished that! » Ebony reacted, overcome with emotion. So, she is the first to know that she will be going to meet the public on February 21 in Epernay. With her comrades, she will sing in the Zénith of Toulouse, Pau, Dijon or Caen. In Paris, a major concert at the Accor Arena is planned for March 18, 2025. Tickets are on sale!
