It's a face, a voice and a style that the public knows well. Very good indeed. It must be said that Nikos Aliagas has been on our small screen since the show “Union Libre”, hosted by Christine Bravo in 1998. Since then, the professional has taken the helm of “Star Academy”, “The Voice” and “The Voice Kids” or the NRJ Music Awards, but also “50 minutes inside”, “La fureur”, “The song of the year” or “The secret song”. Currently at the head of the “Star Academy” on TF1 for a 12th season, Nikos Aliagas has just been elected the second favorite host of the French, behind Faustine Bollaert. A consecration for the one who has just been parodied by Jérôme Commandeur! “ On the one hand, I am very honored and I express my gratitude to the public. I congratulate Faustine, whom I have followed since her first steps, even before I arrived at TF1. She came to Athens to interview me at the time for Télé 7 jours so I saw the path she has taken. » he confides to TV Maghe who remains surprised by the love shown to him by the public.

“I don’t take myself seriously”
« I'm always surprised because, when you do this job, you don't really realize the bond you build with people. You tell yourself that after all these years, if your work interests people, it is because we have perhaps built a little story » adds Nikos Aliagas, who never had a career plan: “ I started speaking on camera 31 years ago. At the time, I was presenter of the TMC news, I didn't think it was going to last this long. And I didn't have the ambition either “. Having television pillars like Jacques Martin, Michel Drucker and Jean-Pierre Foucault as models, the Greek host has established himself as the essential face of TF1 entertainment. The recipe for its success? “ I already think that I don't take myself seriously. And that maturity is taking the right distance. Without minimizing the exercise which is increasingly difficult, you're just doing a TV show » analyzes Nikos Aliagas, quoting his friend and godfather Florent Pagny, with whom he took his first steps at the “Star Academy”: “ Florent told me that it had to look easy. There is a huge amount of work to be done behind the scenes that should not be seen on air. Over time, you no longer lead but you accompany ».
Nikos Aliagas also cites “The Voice” as “ the best school » : « What taught me accuracy was being behind the scenes in contact with those close to the talents of “The Voice”. It is an exceptional barometer. It is a very strong link and a mirror of society. A mirror of those who watch the show. They are in front of you and they are the ones who will help you to be fair ».
