The Star Academy is officially back! Saturday October 12, the very first bonus was broadcast live on TF1. Nikos Aliagas had the pleasure of welcoming on set the 15 new students who joined the Château de Dammarie-les-Lys at the end of the evening. Among them is Ebonya young 19-year-old candidate who will celebrate her 20th birthday on October 15. His portrait revealed a sunny, sparkling personality and inevitably turned towards music.
“Music came into my life because my father is a singer. He passed on this passion for music to me since I was very little.“, she declared. It was possible to understand afterwards that her father was none other than Thierry Cham, a well-known zouk singer. Ebony’s dream is then naturally to become a singer and she does everything to get there: “I played guitar first, then I did piano, I did music theory, then I sang, I listened to Rihanna, Diamonds in the skyit upset me“.
Ebony drops out of school for Star Academy
Before entering the program, the young woman spoke with our colleagues from France Blue to reveal a little more. She admitted to them that she had hoped to be selected for a while now and turned her life upside down to get there. “A year ago, I was studying musicology. […] I had managed to save money to attend a jazz music school. But ultimately, the Star Ac’ fell on me. So I left the jazz school, but for another school, even bigger! You should know that I had registered for the two previous seasons, but I had not received a positive response… And this year, I did not try my luck again, but I was contacted on Instagram“, she said.
A boldness that already seems to be paying off when we see the first comments on Ebony. Following her appearance on Saturday evening, the young artist was indeed acclaimed by X Internet users. “Ebony has great charisma. Liked his energy and his performance“, “Ebony, la star“, “Ebony has a natural charm, it’s amazing, she takes up the whole scene!! STAR“, “Ebony PURÉE, she’s so my girl this year, LIVE final“, we can read among other things.
