Michel Fugain destroys the “Star Academy”: “They are hungry for television, not songs”

Michel Fugain is not a man to play wooden language. When he has something to say, he says it without holding back. We remember his rant against Mimie Mathy who was part of the singer’s Big Bazaar in the 70s. Last November, in On refait la télé, on RTL, he declared that at one point, “Mimie used her disability to find a place within a group of friends, to exist”. “I grabbed her and said: ‘Come here, I need to talk to you! You don’t have to worry about the fact that you have some kind of disability! You’re a big one. If you don’t live like a big girl, you will always be small. That’s not how you become great in this profession.“, he had said.
