The jury has drawn its secret weapon and it is well deserved. For this third evening of auditions of season 10 of the M 6 competition, this Wednesday, all the jurors of “France has incredible talent” stood up in unison to award a Platinum Buzzer to the breathtaking Hakuna quartet Matata Acrobats.
Éric Antoine, Hélène Ségara, Marianne James and Sugar Sammy did not hesitate for a second to offer these Tanzanian artists the ticket which sends them directly to the final!
“We fear that they will collapse, but everything is regulated to the millimeter”
A well-deserved golden ticket because for more than three minutes, we were amazed. With just boards, a roller and blocks, the acrobats performed a very high level performance under the stunned gaze of the public. As if they were dancing and flying through the air. Thanks to a clever balancing act, they climb on top of each other, we fear that they will collapse, but everything is regulated to the millimeter and they never make a mistake. Thrills guaranteed.
“Oh no, no… But how do they do it, it’s crazy,” whispered Hélène Ségara. “A two-person balance on the board is incredible and it’s all the more complicated. I had a monstrous feeling, this number is a gem,” enthused Éric Antoine. For Marianne James, “every second is a little moment of happiness. I’m proud of you.” As for Sugar Sammy, he praised perfection and harmony. The best circus act of the season! »
And “The Reverse Dance” appeared
Faithful to the tone and atmosphere of the previous installments, with Éric Antoine in great form, the evening was rich and from the first number we were amazed by Inverdance's performance. Eight women aged 14 to 39 who, deprived of a swimming pool during confinement, took on the challenge of transposing aquatic synchronization to dance.
And to invent “Reverse dance”, a new discipline unique in the world! “There was no water but you managed to make waves,” congratulated Sugar Samy, the king of the punch line. They left happy with four “yes”.
Four “yes” also for Clément and Philippe, two friends in their thirties who seduced the jury with a number specially designed for this audition. A little moment of magic, poetry and humor too, very original where we see them both trying to catch a red umbrella, a dream object which continues to elude them. Lots of emotion with Léa Kral, 30, who presented an incredible show by dancing suspended by her hair several meters from the ground.
There were some very good performances even if, as usual, some candidates barely stayed on stage for a few minutes, like Jacqueline, 66, who tried to win over the jurors with a contortion number. Without success. Regulars of the Six program must have recognized the Masked Warrior with his song as catchy as it is mediocre “I ate a croissant and now he is absent”. Good audience, Éric Antoine laughed before saying goodbye!
