If the “Star Academy” delights aficionados and we finally know the names of the eight students who will be on the 2025 tour, criticism is rife against TF1's flagship program. After multiple technical hiccups and the justifications of producer Mathieu Vergne, the musical programming is in the sights of Cyril Hanouna, who crushed the show in “Touche pas à mon poste”. “ It's weak… I give advice to the production. The choice of song… “Star Academy” must be for the housewife. There you are at home and you hear this, you want to open your veins or change the channel » he lashed out on C8 Monday evening after a bonus that he considered to be of poor quality. And the next evening event is already causing tension.

“Keep inviting Jean-Pascals”
This week, the candidates of the “Star Academy” must shine in the field of musical comedy. After evaluations where they imagined a staging on the hit “Encore et encore” by Francis Cabrel, they will sing Saturday evening live on TF1 cult pieces like “A boy not like the others (Ziggy)” from “Starmania” , “I make you my essential” from “Roi Soleil”, which will soon make its big comeback on stage, or “Can You Feel the Love Tonight”, the famous song from “Lion King” which earned Elton John an Oscar in 1995. If the confirmed presence of Emmanuel Moire delights fans of musical comedies, the announced arrival of Camille Lellouche, Amir or Carbonne raise eyebrows. Especially since in the history of the “Star Academy”, several students have distinguished themselves upon leaving the castle in the art of live performance, like Sofia Essaïdi (“Cléopâtre”, “Chicago”), Jérémy Amelin (“Dirty Dancing”) or Jean-Luc Guizonne, who played Mufasa in several versions of the show “The Lion King” – notably in the United Kingdom and Asia. A guest of choice therefore, who did not find favor in the eyes of the production. And brings out the journalist Charlotte Namura-Guizonne, who is none other than his wife.
On the social network X, the former host of “Téléfoot” virulently attacks TF1 and the production of the show. “ Never understood how a special musical comedy bonus at the “Star Academy” could be done without inviting Jean-Luc Guizonne. There is a moment when you have to know how to make sense at least » she protests, deploring the list of guests currently announced: “ Amir for singing about “The Lion King” is literally rubbish [de gueule] but no problem “. Charlotte Namura-Guizonne recalls that after his participation in season 5 of “Star Academy”, Jean-Luc Guizonne had a successful career on stage and that his long experience would undoubtedly have benefited the candidates of the 2024 class. “ You have a former student who has 20 years of experience, trained by the greatest in this field around the world. Who is THE Mufasa in France. And it makes people blind » laments the journalist.

Especially since Jean-Luc Guizonne is currently a hit in the cinema thanks to “Vaiana 2” since he is the voice of the character of chef Tui. The animated film has just had a record start in France and internationally. “ And if we invite you to the news of the moment it's good, he is the French voice of the animated film with the best start in the world. Blind and deaf we told you » she concludes, tackling another former academician who recently appeared on TF1: “ Continue to invite Jean-Pascals, it’s useful for the students, it’s true “. The message has gotten through!
