This Saturday, March 9, 2024, there was excitement in Amiens. The tour of the star Academy
class of 2023 started, in the presence of several hundred people who came to applaud the winner Pierre Garnier, the finalist Julien Lieb, the semi-finalists Héléna Bailly and Axel Marbeuf, and Lénie Ficara, Djebril Slatni and Candice Vernier. In the first part, spectators were also able to meet Anisha Jo, winner of the previous edition, who suffered a few boos when he went on stage.
According to The Parisian, other concerns tarnished this first evening. In fact, customers who purchased the most expensive passes, billed at 139 euros, did not understand being confronted with numerous prohibitions, which deprived them of moments that they thought were possible. Furious, some of them even mentioned “a big socket” : in fact, the prestige pack included priority access to the store, and a bag containing some goodies. A store in which they could buy other fairly expensive goodies, like pens for 10 euros, mugs for 15 euros and the famous sweatshirts, seen in the show, at 50 euros each… Above all, they had the possibility to access the signing session, for which they had all paid this premium price. Yes, but…
Selfies formally rejected
What was the disillusionment of the fans of the star Academy when they learned that they had a formal ban on taking selfies with the seven candidatesaccompanied by Anisha Jo. “At that price, it’s a big deal”reacted, furious, a fan, who did not understand that banal selfies were refused to them. Fortunately, the show was convincing, and won over the entire room. Dressed all in white, for more than three hours, the seven Academicians delivered an exemplary show, and covered the biggest hits of the seasonof The mass effect from Maëlle to Kid from Eddy de Pretto to The assasymphony by Mozart, the rock opera. Héléna and Pierre inevitably took over Shallow by Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga, a title on which their story at the Star Ac has started… and is still continuing.
