Rumba, tango, paso doble or even waltz… “Dancing with the Stars” is making a comeback on TF1 on February 7. It was in Paris, from its premises, that the channel unveiled this 14th edition on Thursday evening with the master of ceremonies Camille Combal.
The Gapençais, king of improvisation and expert in distilling the right words, presented the entire cast – at theexception of Florent Manaudouabsent for… vacation – as well as the members of the jury. Without forgetting some well-thought-out little touches to set the tone for this season. Provence was there.
Rami and Leboeuf room together, Lénie acclaimed
“We have a 5 star cast this yearrejoices Rémi Faure, director of streaming programs at TF1. Dancing with the Stars has become a pop culture phenomenon. We talk about it a lot. 35 million different French people watched at least one episode last season“.
This time the production chose to skip the presence of an international star. And opted for strong personalities. And who says “character”, says south. The least we can say is that Provence is well represented. “I don’t know how to dance”amuse Fair Rami by taking a small step on the red carpet. “It was the right time for me to accept, tells us the former footballer who multiplied the “Come on OM” finding its echo in Camille Combal. I’m a showman. I think my character can fit with the show. And with all that I’m a competitor, so the combo can be good.”
Another former football glory, who also wore the Marseille jersey, is part of the adventure. “I was offered it several times but I couldn’t do it with the theater. I’m looking for emotion, pleasure”smiles the Marseillais for his part Frank Leboeuf.
The two footballers will face another competitor. Star of the pools, will he be as prodigious in ballroom dancing? The CNM swimmer, Florent Manaudouthe only one absent from the ceremony, should amaze with impressive lifts.
Revealed a year ago in the castle of Star Academy, Lenie is happy to take part in a new adventure. “I am full of energy and I feel in good spirits. I feel very creativewelcomes Ciotadenne. And contrary to what Adil and Frank say, yes I dance but I don’t know ballroom dancing!“
-Considered the big favorite of this edition, the young woman will also have to surpass Eve Gilles, Miss France 2024. “I hope to break the curse, no Miss won. And it was a dream to do this show! So I have to win“, she warns on stage.
“I want to see them reveal themselves
We also find the “deans” of the casting Charlotte of Turckheim et Nelson Monfort. The journalist Sophie Davantthe singer Julie Zenattithe sparkling actress from “A little thing in more” Mayane or the adventurer of Koh-Lanta Claude Dartois complete the guest list. Without forgetting Jungle whose song “Petit Génie” – featuring Marseille rapper Alonzo – was the hit of the year 2024.
On the jury side, “it was obvious to extend with them” assures the production. Chris Marques, Mel Charlot, Fauve Hautot et Jean-Marc Généreux will distribute the notes. “I want to see them reveal themselves. See if our celebrities are able to share a dance, a song, a spacethe Quebecer whispers to us. I want them to impress us.”
“Surprises” and departures on the dancer side
“We will have surprises and happenings every week“, promises Rémi Faure. Possible “guest” are discussed but also themed bonuses. “But no conflict this time“, wishes Camille Combal, in reference to the quarrel between Inès Reg and Natacha St-Pier last year.
The singer won the trophy with Vauclusian Anthony Colette… who was ousted. On the other hand, the dancer from La Ciotat Christophe Licata is there.
