There were to be 16 of them and will ultimately be “only” 13. No, this is not Denis Brogniart’s new formula for presenting Koh Lantabut indeed the number of students present for the new season of star Academy. Given the success of the last edition, TF1 decided to launch a new edition, still hosted by Nikos Aliagas.
From November 3, Lola, Axel, as well as the other students, will “compete” for several weeks to try to be crowned winners of the show. A program that Thomas should not follow, however. Under a pseudonym, the young man indeed testified this Monday, October 30, 2023 on the airwaves of South Radio to make a funny revelation. Selected at the start, he was to enter the castle of Dammarie-les-Lys like the others. But the production announced to him at the last moment, as well as to two other students, that their adventure was going to end even though it had not yet begun.

The “Star Academy” would have offered a generous check to the ousted candidates
“TF1 asked Endemol production only a few days ago to reduce the casting to 13 candidates”in fact lamented the artist-to-be before continuing: “Everything collapses. In a fraction of a second, all my dreams are destroyed. The casting for the Star Academy is very trying. Since May 3, I have been thinking Star Ac, dreaming Star Ac, living Star Ac. C “It’s an extremely long and physically and psychologically demanding casting process.”
To live his dream, Thomas even says he put his studies on hold in order to participate in the show. Totally “devastated”
by the announcement of the production, he obviously still has not digested the news, even if the teams would have paid him a generous check as an apology. Indeed, still according to the young man, he would have received financial compensation amounting to around 8,000 euros, as revealed by our colleagues at Tele-Leisure
