They were only ten in the running this Saturday evening in the star Academy. After the departures of Amisse, then of Cenzo and Ahcène all of a sudden, there are still two students who were eliminated of the competition during the fourth prime. For the first time in the history of the program, it was decided to form pairs for the evaluations and above all to link their destinies until the end, for better or for worse. The two less convincing duos unfortunately found themselves on the bench of the nominees, after which one of them could be saved by the public while the other was eliminated. Unlike previous weeks, there was no repechage from non-nominated students. During the week, the director Michaël Goldman had therefore announced that Paola and Carla as well as Léa and Tiana were in danger.
But before knowing the highly anticipated verdict of the public, the students had the opportunity to spend another exceptional evening. The six candidates spared notably shared the stage with new renowned guests, namely Slimane, Pomme, Camille Lellouche, Christophe Willem and Elodie Frégé, big winner of season 3 of the star Academy. The singer Garou also came to surprise two students, Anisha and Julien, during their planned duet on his hit Downwind which he shared with Celine Dion.
Anisha also sang earlier in the evening with another star of French song: Slimane. Stanislas meanwhile, after having sung with Chris twice, notably performed on the show’s stage alongside Christophe Willem then Louise Attaque, in duet with Julien. This one has also sung with his brother at the piano on Conceived by John Lenon. Enola, meanwhile, performed Do not judge me by Camille Lellouche, alongside the singer, before forming a partnership with Élodie Frégé. She also sang with Louis, who found himself a few moments later in a duet with Pomme.
NOMINEES’ PERFORMANCES
Carla and Paola sang together on the hit Fever by Dua Lipa and Angèle.
Léa and Tiana sang When we only have love by Jacques Brel.
The two pairs then sang My philosophy by Amel Bent.
Great performances, so much so that it was difficult for the coaches to decide between them. “I believe in you 4“, said in particular Adeline Toniutti.
THE RESULT OF THE VOTES
After some hesitation, the public finally decided to save Tiana and Léa. The adventure therefore ends here for Carla and Paola, who could not hide their disappointment when they learned the result, when they had stood up to their competitors to the end.
