We no longer present Nikos Aliagas. A successful host, he has presented some of the biggest TV shows like star Academy, The Voice or 50′ inside on TF1. The Franco-Greek is also a renowned journalist who notably officiated for Euronews at its beginnings or later on Europe 1, radio for which he carried out political interviews and dealt with current affairs. So many activities that have made him a great figure in the audiovisual industry. However, Nikos Aliagas would initially have liked to move towards another profession: that of an artist, and even a rocker.
In his youth, the companion of Tina Grigoriou had in any case the look. “I was a rocker, with the US bag and long hair. My dad didn’t want to talk to me anymore. At home, we listened to Leonard Cohen“, he confided in the columns of Paris Match in 2013. His old orange card (ancestor of the Navigo card) unveiled by his teasing friend Thomas Sotto is in any case there to remind him of that time. The bushy eyebrows, the messy hair and an apparent fluffy mustache… Nikos Aliagas is almost unrecognizable there.
To make a career on TV, however, the host ended up swapping his very relaxed look for much more elegant and traditional suits and ties. On the other hand, he will have taken a little longer to sport his well-known haircut well in place and without any ears. Indeed, in his early days, Nikos Aliagas was more the type to have them less combed and also appeared a little chubby (see our slideshow).
Over the years, the father of two children (Agatha, 9, and Andreas, 6) has slimmed down and found his style that he never leaves… except in summer. Indeed, when he returns to his native land in Greece, Nikos Aliagas likes to indulge in growing a beard, which becomes gray with age. What give it a very sexy and wild look that always has its little effect. In August 2021, he even went further during his vacation by displaying himself with a salt and pepper mustache. This time, he had not been unanimous. “I wanted to keep it but nobody is a fan at home! Say goodbye to the mustache“, he admitted.
