Pierre heavily criticized since he chose to take over Lomepal

This Saturday, December 30, 2023, Candice was eliminated from the “Star Academy. As a result, there are only six students left! Following the week’s evaluations, we learned this Thursday, January 4, 2024, that Lénie and Julien were immunized. All the others, namely Djebril, Héléna, Pierre and Axel are therefore nominated and risk leaving the castle after the next bonus.

For the bonus this Saturday, January 6, 2024, the students had the chance to hear the songs they will sing. In total obscurity, Pierre, who is not a big fan of French songs, ended up choosing a song by Lomepal called Too handsome, all after the suggestions of the coach Lucie Bernadoni. The candidate admitted to being comfortable with this piece because he had already been able to perform it before, which reassured him for his future performance for the prime.

And while Pierre is already working for the Saturday evening show, viewers for their part expressed their dissatisfaction with this choice of song. Many of them have in fact made it known on the social network X (formerly Twitter).

As a reminder, the singer Lomepal, whose real name is Antoine Valentinelli, was accused of rape during the summer of 2023, leading to the opening of a preliminary investigation opened by the Paris prosecutor’s office. If the complaint dates back to 2020, the facts described by the complainant date back to 2017 and allegedly took place in New York. Very quickly, the 31-year-old singer took the floor to deny the facts with which he is accused. “I learned today from the press that a complaint was filed against me in 2020. I have heard bits and pieces of this story over the years, at the same time as rumors about me grew. I will respond to justice when it questions me, I am calm, I know that the truth will be revealed” he wrote. The singer remains innocent of the charges against him for the moment.
