Ladji Doucouré talks about his Star Academy students
During the interview, Ladji Doucouré also spoke about the “nonchalance” of certain candidates. “To those, I say: 'Every day, I train people who give all their energy to try to become Olympic champions. Without being certain of succeeding. When they leave Star Academy, you will have the chance to be signed by a label. But this environment is a jungle, and if you're not armed, you're not going to enjoy it. The other coaches and I are here to help you. If you prefer to gentrify, too bad for you!'. After that, they bounce back, believe me!”he declares.
Although he sometimes has to be harsh with students, the athlete also knows how to show humor. The day Ebony arrived at class with slippers on his feet, he couldn't help but laugh. “That made me laugh. I had seen, on the live show, that she had prepared well for her sports session. Even depriving themselves of breakfast to arrive on time, while others stuffed themselves. She just forgot to put her shoes on…”he remembers.
Ladji Doucouré: the reason why he gets yelled at by his daughter
When he is on TV, his 8-year-old granddaughter doesn't miss a beat. “I was getting yelled at when she found me too severe with her favorites, Emma and Masseo”he admits, before adding: “She slipped letters into my bag that she wrote for them.”
“The rules forbade me from giving them to them as long as they were at the castle. When she learned of their exit, she shouted: You'll be able to give them to them! It's so cute…”he confides. In this interview, he also mentioned the Sports Stars. “Everyone is caring and sharing. It's a bit like the Olympic or Paralympic village…”he finally concludes.
