Three days after the Star Academy bonus, anger continues to rumble on social networks. A sequence showing Laure Balon, the scenic expression teacher, reprimanding a candidate named Julien caused a stir… because it was considered very humiliating and degrading.
While the 20-year-old tries to justify himself on his performance deemed poor, his teacher does not hesitate to shout at him and yell at him that it is pretentious to look at the camera or to play with the public: “What do we care about the public?” she says. “I almost didn’t do the show because I had a huge anxiety attack before coming, the first in my life. I thought of everything” explains Julien while his teacher replies that he had only to pass out on stage…
For people who don’t understand the injustice, the relentlessness, the persecution etc. Julien is the only one to be treated like this. He asks only to shine not to be down at each live / prime.#Star Academy#StarAcademyLivepic.twitter.com/HGm52qbwJn

This Monday, October 31, 2022, Mathieu Canaby, Julien’s big brother was present on the set of “Touche pas à mon poste” to express himself on this sequence which shocks the web. The columnists unanimously declared that they were not shocked by Laure Balon’s criticisms and recalled that the teachers are there to put on the show… so that TF1 can make good audiences. They also explained that this little clash is a good way to push Julien to his limits so that he progresses.
Come to support “Each student must focus on his own experience. If we let Julien loose the bunch, that would be not bad… He writes his life as he wants, he’s an artist, he doesn’t know it yet . He has a beautiful voice. I thank all the people, thank you very much for the benevolence towards my brother. It is great”.
