Chris and Julien kiss (several times): romance or buzz?
But if these moments of nostalgia have certainly put balm in the hearts of many viewers, it is a completely different sequence that has captured the attention and shook the social networks. This October 23, Chris and Julien kissed several times ... much to the delight of viewers who are already hoping to attend the birth of a couple ! But others imagine that the two candidates are only looking to to buzz or that it is just a simple joke between friends. The future will tell...

The award is irrevocable. After a rather hectic second prime, the name of the first eliminated from Star Academy was unveiled: this is Amisse , who left the adventure when she was in the hot seat against Julien, drafted by the public, and Ahcène, saved (just barely) by his comrades.
But if the show continues to make people talk, the October 22 bonus was not a big hit with viewers. That evening, it was France 3 which took the lead on the audience podium with a rebroadcast of the fiction Murders in Albi which brought together a 22.8% market share and 4.41 million viewers, against Star Academy which brought together 3.70 million curious people and 18.9% audience share .
For the third prime, a size change has been made. While the nominees are usually three, this week there will be four in the hot seat, the director announced. Michael Goldman students. And two candidates will be eliminated ! The son of Jean-Jacques Goldman has also informed the academicians that he was not satisfied with the performance of some. ' Sometimes it's fair limit “, he lamented.
We also now know which stars will come and sing. They are: Véronique Sanson, Tom Gregory, Gims, Keen'V, Zaz and Hyphen Hyphen.
The students settled in the famous Star Ac castle for six weeks. A mythical place which had been unoccupied since 2008 and the departure of the Endemol company which had relocated the show to Paris. Subsequently, a renovation project was announced to make it a reception area (weddings, seminars, etc.). Before relaunching the show, the production took out the checkbook and work was done to welcome the candidates, but all is not idyllic.

Bedbugs and cockroaches at the castle, according to the students who had an unexpected little visit in the middle of dance class #live #old man pic.twitter.com/loQFD3Hf7D
Indeed, to believe Tele-Leisure , Julien and Cenzo had a restless night, due to the high temperature in the dorms. He was there '400 degrees' to believe them. But that's not all, a flying bug was invited during the dance class, to the great torture of the teacher, Yanis Marshall. In his class, water leaks were also observed. Finally, some students claim to have seen cockroaches in the rooms...
During the after party for the first prime, we were able to discover the 2022 anthem of the Star Ac: this is the title Do not go without me of Celine Dion . A song released in 1987 and which brought luck to the Quebecer since she won Eurovision thanks to this title. The anthem project was re-orchestrated by Season 6 winner Quentin Mosimann.
While rumors had reported the possibility that Celine Dion is the godmother of the show, it did not happen. Is this choice of one of his titles a way to wink at him? Everyone probably remembers one of his appearances at the Star Academy , become cult, during which we thought that Nikos was going to crack and that Buzz Feed related not without humour.

As in the previous nine seasons, amateur singers will have the chance to share the stage with big names in music. For the Star Academy 10 , the academicians will be able to sing with Patrick Bruel . The interpreter announced the big news at the microphone of the show Morning without filter on Virgin radio on Thursday, October 13. He stated : ' I'll go !

A figure from the shadows also returns in the tele-hook: Matthieu Gonet, a musician , who participated in the show from 2001 to 2007 and has taken on several hats since he has been musical director, pianist, orchestrator, rehearsalist, conductor or even jury during student evaluations. This year, he will have a one-off role, as announced on one of his Instagram posts, he will ' conduct the symphony orchestra that will accompany the 3e prime '.
A few days ago, the teams of 50' Inside had the chance to push the doors of the castle of Dammarie-lès-Lys, in Seine-et-Marne. And, for the moment, it is still under construction . Jean-Louis Blot, president of EndemolShine France, explained that the teams were going 'change the layout of the rooms' and 'redecorate everything' .
Mathieu Vergne, the president of DMLSTV, announced to the journalists on site that a telephone would once again be made available to the candidates. As in the very first version of the show, they will have only one minute of communication with the outside per day. And social networks will be banned. 'For the next season, the rule will be the same and cell phones will be confiscated' , did he declare. 'They have to take full advantage of it, so no phone, no social media. It must remain a bubble, they must be focused on their job and not take too much from everyone's opinion on what is going on. They have to take advantage of their own time, with their teachers, with the director or the director, but without too much outside. .
