There are only 5 left! After 11 weeks of adventure at the castle of Dammarie-les-Lys, the 2024 class of the “Star Academy” lost one of its acolytes yesterday on TF1. After Maïa’s departure two weeks ago, two candidates were submitted to viewers’ votes following the evaluations: Marguerite and Ulysse.
An evening full of emotions
This special “Students’ Carte Blanche” bonus began with the legendary song “Light the Fire” by Johnny Hallyday. In addition to a particularly notable “cowboy” medley and a cover of “Basique” by Orelsan, the academicians obviously had the pleasure of singing with several established artists.
Ebony seduced during a performance with Ycare on the title “Animaux fragiles” and Charles had the honor of performing “You will find” with Natasha St-Pier. Marine put on the show alongside Lorie with a medley of her greatest hits. Furthermore, Franck was treated to a duet with the young singer Linh on “Je pense à vous”. Regarding the nominees, Ulysse ignited the room with Ben l’Oncle Soul on “Soulman” and Marguerite shared the stage with Maëlle on “Flash”.
A little after 11:40 p.m., Nikos Aliagas and Karima Charni, accompanied by the bailiff Maître Simonin, came to deliver the final verdict of the viewers. Ulysses was saved by the public and it is therefore for Marguerite that the adventure has definitively ended.

Very close to the eliminated candidate, Ebony confided to Karima Charni’s microphone: “Marguerite has been my pillar since the beginning of the adventure. And it’s going to feel weird to be without her. But I want her to know that for her, it’s going to be very beautiful when it comes out. She has a huge future because she is an incredible artist. She has to have confidence in herself, stay as you are, you are who you are! I love you with all my heart and I will do my best to live the adventure without you”.
