Discover how Émilien, supported by his partner and his family, continues to inspire with his exceptional journey and his thirst for knowledge.
His career impresses… Since his first appearance on the set of 12 coups de midi on September 25, 2023, Émilien has broken numerous records and became the greatest Midday Master, as well as the greatest champion in the history of game shows. With 436 entries under his belt and a prize pool of more than 1.7 million euros, the 22-year-old History student is causing a lot of reaction. Jean-Luc Reichmann is the first to be surprised that he almost has the answer to everything.
Friday December 6, 2024, on the set of the show, the current midday master had to answer the following question: “According to the proverb, who do you accuse of having rabies when you want to drown them?”. A bit curious, Jean-Luc Reichmann asked him: “Do you have this or not?”. To which Émilien replied: “Yes, it's the dog! I think it's: 'He who wants to drown his dog accuses him of rabies'”. Once again, he had the right answer. “No, but you are traumatizing me! I dream of you… He knows expressions of my grandmother that I don't know”exclaimed the host.
Émilien has always been a good student
Sunday October 27, 2024, at the stroke of noon, Jessica, Emilien's partner, assured that she was doing everything to try to help her companion in his revisions. “It’s true that it takes training, a champion like that. You have to boost it from time to time! When he is wrong on questions that he believes he might have had, he tends to dwell on it, to blame himself for a long time. I'm trying to get him to move on.”she explained.
It must be said that the champion takes things very seriously. Saturday November 23, 2024, it was while she was present by video that her mother, Fabienne, said: “Very good student! He would cry if he didn't have 20/20! He was trying to understand if he was missing, often half a point, or a point. He didn't understand why he didn't get the whole thing.”.
Céline: “I sincerely hope that it inspires”
If some viewers dream of Émilien being eliminated, Céline, ex-maître de midi, is amazed by his journey. “To see someone who has so much knowledge be rewarded for their investment, it’s very rewarding. I sincerely hope that it inspires and will inspire as many young people as possible to open up to the world and general culture”she declared on Wednesday December 4, 2024, in the columns of Télé-Loisirs.
In complete transparency, Céline added: “Knowing the difficulties linked to the sequence of broadcasts and sessions, and the physical and mental fatigue that this implies, I am on the contrary rather fascinated by his journey and curious to see how far he will be able to go“.
