Hélène Ségara, member of the show’s jury France has an unbelievable talent on M6, returned to her difficult childhood this Monday, May 6, in Click on Canal+. “It’s not at all because we were a more than modest family. I had amazing grandparents, but my parents divorced very early (when she was 8 years old, editor’s note). My mother remarried and it wasn’t easy (with a man who died at age 40 of liver cirrhosis, editor’s note) and life has been hard… It’s better to live with separated parents than with parents who are tearing each other apart, but let’s say it was the remarriage that was complicated.” This new love life with her mother completely pushed her to slam the door of the house: “At 14, 15 years old, I ran away from home, and started sailing alone.“
A complicated situation which then unlocked certain abilities for him. To know, “learn to grow up very quickly and protect yourself on your own”: “It’s funny because I was already giving the impression. At school, I was not at all what you might imagine. I was a very funny girl but also a great fighter… As soon as someone was looking for me a little… I competed in handball every Wednesday, and it always ended in a fight. Because I always had to, as soon as someone bothered me, I went and punched them. It’s crazy because when I see today the gentleness that animates me and the tenderness that I have for people… At the time, in my school, there wasn’t one that I not plastered!“
