Big Brother Celebrities | The supermodel at the top, without merit

Ève Salvail had guessed it – it was not a mystery file like in the days of Jean Coutu at TQS – and she had even started “packing her things to build her camp”.

Unsurprisingly, the 52-year-old model was kicked out on Sunday evening from Big Brother Celebritiesthe last of the three victims of the temporary alliance of “you sleep, you go out”.

This majority group, formed during the negotiations of the night of the six tokens (yes, it’s that serious), targeted Ève Salvail, the drag queen Barbada and the comedian Mélanie Ghanimé, who favored their sleep over detriment of strategy. You snooze, you loseas they say at the flame ceremony in The island of love. For her part, Ève Salvail described her opponents as people “who stay late and laugh together”.

In theory, the game would then have resumed its usual rhythm, except that the production of the show offered an unexpected gift to Ève Salvail. She will be the invisible boss this week. An enormous privilege never granted to an ousted competitor.

For us, simple viewers addicted to the slightest whisper near the yellow ping-pong table, it’s candy. Eve will undoubtedly sow chaos and paranoia by eliminating, in secret, a strong head of Big Brother Celebrities. To paraphrase YouTuber Gabrielle Marion, the house will be “underneath above”.

But for the ten candidates still in the loft studio, it’s quite unfair. Ève Salvail has accomplished nothing extraordinary to inherit this superpower. She has hardly accumulated any chips. She did not win any crucial challenges. And she sulked in her corner in the last days waiting to fall by the wayside. Ordinary as an attitude.

At least, Ève Salvail revealed all her secrets (the composition of the Zoolanders! The existence of the Star Alliance!) and she shook up her female comrades before disappearing into the antechamber. Wake up and rally, girls, it’s time to start a revolution, pleaded the former muse of Jean Paul Gaultier (and not of Revolution).

True, men outrageously dominate this fourth season of Big Brother Celebrities on Noovo and they zigzag women one after the other, including the singer Patsy Gallant, Mélanie Ghanimé and the tiktoker Pascale de Blois.

Of the ten roommates still in the game, only four women remain. Paralympic athlete Frédérique Turgeon, who had a very average week of management, has almost no chance of winning. Hopes therefore rest on actress Joëlle Paré-Beaulieu, comedian Erika Suarez and Gabrielle Marion, with an advantage for Joëlle, who has been scheming with ease since day one.

Patrick Côté, aka Papa Ours, remains the self-proclaimed leader, and it is obvious that Ève Salvail already has him in her sights. If the top model respects her feminist credo, she will also put Olympian Charles Hamelin, screenwriter Daniel Savoie or comedian Dave Morgan on the block, with Danick Martineau being immune thanks to his victory in the boss’s challenge.

As the designer Jean Airoldi has been his accomplice for the last four weeks, Eve will surely spare him and not punish him for making her wear a dress made of toilet paper. A garment as controversial as the denim jacket dress worn by Véronique Cloutier at Zenith last Thursday.

The sparages of Roxane Bruneau

Roxane Bruneau, on her first turn in the musical chair at The voice, moves a lot of air on the board. Sometimes too much. Her facial expressions during performances, her carrot muffins, the joker she took out of her coat, the 33-year-old singer-songwriter encroaches on the speaking time of Corneille, France D’Amour and Mario Pelchat with interventions not always relevant, unfortunately.

The most unpleasant thing is when Roxane Bruneau pretends not to “know complicated words”. Like galvanize, which she pronounced “galvasinate.” I’m going to look that word up in the dictionary, she joked.

Then, when France D’Amour complimented soprano Ève Dessureault for the control of her head voice and the power of her falsetto, Roxane Bruneau repeated this same type of gag which discredits her, I think. Pfft, I know what a falsetto is, it’s a pasta restaurant, she replied.

Honestly, if I were a participant in The voiceI would run away from coach who does not know basic musical vocabulary.

To cap off an evening rich in pseudocomic remarks, Roxane Bruneau suggested to a competitor who was touching her stomach to “trust her gut” rather than relying on her instinct. Do you grab it? Sigh.

Excluding Roxane Bruneau’s splits, this third round of blind auditions The voice on TVA was rather quiet on Sunday evening. Corneille inherited the most interesting candidate of the lot, Bryan Alexandre-Melo, 20 years old, from Laval, who interpreted Lay Me Down by Sam Smith with almost perfect technique.

At the end of the course, the “spontaneous” and “unforeseen” passage of the actor and comedian Stéphane Rousseau, who covered Tom Jones, was nice, but not necessary. It’s new talent that we want to discover The voice. Not the attendant Éric Perron from STAT which imitates a crooner British.
