The noose is tightening in the Star Academy! During the last primetime broadcast on Saturday January 4, it was Ulysses who had to say goodbye to the adventure, under the stunned gaze of Marine.
The weeks pass and the dormitories of the castle of Dammaries-les-Lys are empty. Latest elimination: that of Ulysses, who had to say goodbye to his comrades whom he will nevertheless meet again during the tour! This week, it’s time for the race to the semi-final for two of them!
Ulysses eliminated, Marine in shock
During the bonus of January 4, 2025, the academicians gave everything to defend their place at the castle. It must be said that the stakes were high! As a duo or solo, Marine, Ulysse, Franck and Charles pushed their vocal and stage abilities to the maximum. But, unfortunately for Ulysses, his seventh nomination cost him his place in the competition. Results: Franck will face Ebony in their semi-final on January 18, and Marine will face Charles next Saturday. When Nikos Aliagas announced this result, Marine could not hide her shock on her face. A reaction which did not go unnoticed by Internet users, and of which Marine quickly became aware.
Marine apologizes to Franck
Once back at the castle, Marine gathered up her courage and apologized to Franck: “Sorry Franck, but I made a shocked face when Ulysses left. Not because I didn’t expect you to come back, but because I didn’t expect him to leave”, explained the young Lille resident, before concluding: “I was really like this: ‘No, is it Ulysses who is leaving? It’s super weird‘”. The apologies were obviously accepted by Franck, who obviously understands the situation: over the weeks, strong friendships are created. Being sad at the elimination of a friend never means that the opponent who emerged victorious is undeserving.
