Benoît is in the process of setting new records in Don't forget the lyrics. A few days ago, the Maestro joined the Mastersto his greatest pleasure. This hard worker, who learned more than 1,131 songs by heart during his participation in the France 2 show, managed to accumulate no less than 33 victories. At the start of the week, Benoît's prize pool increased from 197,000 euros to 237,000 euros. For now, the latter rises to 21st place in the ranking of the best Maestros in the program, far ahead of Arsène who had 212,000 euros after 27 victories or the formidable Micka with 213,000 euros in winnings, Alessandra who collected 220,000 euros, Morgiane and her 221,000 euros, Coralie or even Geoffrey with 234,000 euros.
To enter the coveted Top 15, the latter will therefore have to raise no less than 35,000 euros and several victories. At the end of the week, the professional photographer had let his emotion explode during his last victory. “I wish everyone knew this feeling. I see all the work I have done and it pays off as well as this… I worked for two years… It's a good salary !”he declared, moved to tears, facing Nagui and his mother, present in the audience. And this Monday, December 23, the budding musician was lucky enough to have the visit of a former Maestro in the audience…
Don't forget the lyrics : Etienne, former Maestro, challenges Benoît
This Monday, December 23, Benoît once again made an appointment to viewers in Don't Forget the Lyrics. In the second part of the show, the current Maestro had the pleasure of seeing a distinguished friend in the audience. Indeed, Etienne, former champion of the show was present to support his friend. The 17th greatest player on the show even had the right to intervene. He started by complimenting Nagui about the new set, before challenging his friend. “If I understood correctly, you are at 257,000 euros, you are missing 9,000 euros. Do it now please”he implored her.
And to take up his friend's challenge, the current champion decided to try to find the two missing words of the song Load-bearing walls by Florent Pagny. He therefore managed to pocket 1000 euros additional. Then, just after, the young man tried his luck by playing the four missing words, which allowed him to pocket 2000 euroswhich makes a total of 259,000 euros. A nice sum for those who validate their 34th participation. Moreover, Etienne promised Benoît to come back tomorrow to see him triumph once again. The best support.
