No need to introduce Ebony, a regular in the top 3 of the week, who has continued to impress teachers and students. This week, Ebony is immune, just like Charles and Franck. Her cover of Adèle’s hit, “Easy On Me”, was unanimous in the anticipated evaluations. “ She’s a diva », exclaimed Sofia Morgavi about it. Since this sequence, Ebony’s name has come up several times. It was first Maureen who mentioned it during an interview with Gala. “ Today, in terms of vocal technique, Ebony is the one who has advanced the most “, she told the magazine.
A few days earlier, Maureen was invited to the set of Quotidien, alongside Julie, eliminated a week earlier. Their hesitations regarding the best student in the class quickly made comedian Arnaud Tsamere react: “ Ebony still puts on some pretty stunning performances. We have the birth of lots of artists, but we don’t have to worry too much about Ebony. It’s very sweet of you to include everyone else, but Ebony folded the game “, he decided. Wednesday December 11, at the microphone of Europe 1, Héléna, finalist of the previous season, also gave her opinion on the subject: “ I love them all. I wish them lots of beautiful things but it’s true that Ebony for me… But even the others say it ».
A child’s dream
This evening again, at only 20 years old, the young artist dazzled everyone, leaving teachers and students speechless. She delivered a vibrant rendition of “Don’t Leave Me This Way”, Thelma Houston’s famous hit from 1998. To prepare for this performance, she was coached by Malika, the castle’s dance teacher, and Christophe Licata, essential figure of “Dancing with the Stars”. “ She will have to let herself be guided, in a much more solar style. This will help relieve the pressure. “, promised Malika.
Very enthusiastic about working with Christophe Licata, Ebony was determined to give the best of herself. And, unsurprisingly, dressed in a golden costume, she set the stage at Studio 217 on fire. Ebony is a true ray of sunshine. She has undeniable talent, but she has also worked incredibly hard », commented Malika after the performance. “ I loved working with Ebony. I felt like I was dancing with Beyoncé », added Christophe Licata, impressed. For Ebony, who finished her performance out of breath, “ it was a childhood dream » to share the stage with Christophe, who has always been his favorite in “Dancing with the Stars”.

And just when we thought Ebony’s evening was over, the young woman returned to the stage alongside Kad Merad, who is making her first appearance at the “Star Academy” this evening. An unexpected duo that fascinated students and teachers. Before tonight, Ebony already had the chance to sing alongside Mentissa, revealed during season 10 of “The Voice”. She was also able to perform with Barbara Pravi, who represented France at Eurovision in 2021. Just a few days after arriving at the castle, she took the stage with Rag’n’Bone Man, a British star with a raspy voice whose track “Human” has more than a billion streams on Spotify. So, who will be the next star to shake the walls of Studio 217 alongside Ebony?
