Invited on the set of Children of TV this Sunday, November 24, 2024 on France 2, alongside Kad Merad, Valérie Bonneton, Nadia Roz and Hatik, she made revelations about her legendary role in the Star Academy.
The new season of Star Academy is in full swing on the front page. The bonus of this November 23, 2024 was also placed under the sign of nostalgia: the fourth season of the TV show of the first channel celebrated its 20th anniversary! The opportunity to have a special thought for the one she crowned, Grégory Lemarchal, died of cystic fibrosis on April 30, 2007. The Academicians were able to pay tribute to him by performing an unreleased track from the late singer, written while he was in hospital, just two months before his disappearance.
The former president of Miss France is particularly linked to this legendary television program of the 2000s: she operated both as producer of the show and as director. Invited on the set of Children of TV this Sunday, November 24, 2024, Laurence Boccolini mischievously reminded him of his glory days during the first seasons of musical reality TV. She showed the president of Banijay a tape recorder where she can be seen harshly refocusing certain dissident students. “I took my role as director perhaps a little too seriously”, admits the latter when faced with the images. She explains that she had a tendency to add more for the camera, which sometimes had unexpected consequences.
The day George-Alain and Houcine almost left Star Ac' 2
“There is still this sequence that I can confess now”, announces Alexia Laroche-Joubert. “The day Georges-Alain and Houcine find themselves in front of me because they kicked in a door and bothered Nolwenn, I go up and yell at them so much that the guys say: 'no problem, we're leaving' ”, reports the producer. She clearly had no such reaction from the contestants, who were ready to leave. “And there, I say to myself 'how can I explain to them that they have to stay anyway'”, says Kamel Ouali's sidekick, who had to count on the latter to sort out the situation: “It was Kamel Ouali who came to the rescue to collect them”, she specifies. A story that could have ended badly, the fault of the strong character of the two protagonists: “They were stupid heads”, confirms Alexia Laroche-Joubert.
