“I was told that I looked like a whale”: Miss Dominique scrambled with the production in Nouvelle Star

We don’t know yet if she was selected for the rest of the competition, but we can still say that Miss Dominique (43) made a successful comeback. After fifteen years of absence, viewers of M6 will discover the images of his moving hearing in the episode ofIncredible talent 2021 broadcast this Wednesday, November 26. On this occasion, The Parisian went to meet him, as well as that of the member of the jury Marianne James. And the candidate made revelations about her passage in New star.

It was in 2006 that Miss Dominique was revealed to the general public, in the former M6 tele-hook. And, as for Amazing talent, she would never have been on the show if it hadn’t been for pushing her. “At the time, it was Michaël Youn, whom I met on the set of the movie Uncontrollable, who told me to register. I followed the castings, I no longer believed in it. And there I was taken“, she first confided. Her resumption of I Have Nothing Whitney Houston had indeed caused a sensation, especially with Marianne James who immediately knew that she would be a finalist.

The juror was not mistaken, because she went to the end of the adventure against Christophe Willem, the winner of the season. But it was not always easy. “When I had to sing It’s Raining Men, they wanted me to read a text. Except that I didn’t feel it … At rehearsals, I was forbidden to put on a white dress, telling me that I looked like a whale. So I put on a tight white dress and during the live I improvised and shouted ‘Put your hands up‘”, continued Miss Dominique who recently became a mother for the second time.

The one who became a music teacher also revealed that, during the semi-final bonus she didn’t want to sing Calling you, by Jevetta Steele. She just agreed because we let her sing a song she loved afterwards. “Corn in rehearsals, I start shouting on the chorus. And there, we take our heads with the production who tells me it’s horrible. Just before going on stage, they warn me: ‘If you scream, you go out. ‘ And in the magneto, I discover that they went to look for a photo of my parents in my suitcase, without warning me. So I hate this song, I don’t understand the lyrics, I argue with the production, I’m on my nerves and I find out … After a while I say to myself ‘Go show you all’, and I scream!“, she recalled, laughing, to the Parisian.

This adventure still allowed her to make herself known and meet Marianne James, whom she considers to be her sister.
