During the Christmas holidays, the rules of Don't forget the lyrics can visibly change. This Saturday, December 28, the maestro of the moment, Benoît, was able to take advantage of it. His opponent had come accompanied by a friend, “met during castings”very well known to the show's audience: Arsène. The candidate, who won 212,000 euros in 16 victories in April 2020, is also the winner of two editions of masters. Suffice to say that having him in your camp is a considerable advantage. “I said to myself Nagui, maybe you want to change the rules and Arsène can come and play in my place because [Benoît] is really very very strong”dared to ask the candidate in danger. Her housekeeping didn't work out. On the other hand, when Benoît found himself in the final, unsurprisingly, he took the liberty of asking for help from this great master of NOPLP to help him sing The Beauty of Cadiz.
Arsène (Don't forget the lyrics) impresses once again with his knowledge
Arsène accepted the challenge, raved about the show's new decor, and sang Luis Mariano's song with Benoît. But on the last landing, the two men stumbled over their words. “I give up…”ended up launching Benoît, convinced of not succeeding in finding the 16 missing words. “Look, Arsène doesn’t want to give up, he wants to find! He’s going to find!”reacted Nagui, who is starting to know the young Rouennais well. He didn't think he was saying that well. After a long reflection, Arsène put his finger on the missing words without allowing Benoît to increase his prize pool. It was only a symbolic helping hand! But Arsène was able to demonstrate once again the extent of his knowledge.
Benoît (Don't forget the lyrics) climbs slowly but surely in the ranking of the greatest maestros
Since November, Benoît has been the new darling of fans of NOPLP. The new maestro confided that he trained with a former champion of the show, Etienne, the 18th greatest maestro. His biggest dream was to beat him in the rankings and it is now accomplished. On Friday, December 27, he won enough money to place 12th in the overall rankings, with over 300,000 euros in winnings. “You enter the very private club of those who obtained 300,000 euros. In this club, there are Kristofer, Louis, Hervé, Charlotte, Jennifer, Renaud and Manon. There are only three in the club of 400,000. Kevin, Caroline and Laurens There is only one in the 500,000 club, Margaux. She is a little bored in her club.explained Nagui to Benoît, overjoyed.
