The evaluations of Star Academy students took place this Tuesday, November 28, 2023. Just before the announcement of the nominees, coach Joe visited the candidates comfortably seated in the castle of Dammarie-les-Lys. Against all expectations, the famous physical trainer had not come for a simple courtesy visit but to reprimand the students with force.
From the outset, the coach was very harsh with the students: “This morning, with Cécile, you went on stage. Did you believe what you said? In relation to the exercise I mean. We ask you to go on stage and say if you think you want to win the Star Ac. I’m not asking you to have a burst of pride and tell the whole of France that you want to win the Star Ac, there, it’s within the framework of an exercise. And what is done in this frame, it remains there, because also, many of you care about what image will emerge from everything we do here” he said to Pierre.
Determined to reframe the candidates, he then added: “It’s very hard to cheat because you are watched 24/7 […] stop being calculating, by doing that, you distort yourself and take away something instantaneous, fresh from you, and artistically, it will be felt. If you play for the cameras and not for the objective which is to become, not a better artist, but simply an artist, when you come out of there, you won’t necessarily control the narrative…”.
But this little moment of advice unfortunately did not please the viewers who were quick to point out the coach’s attitude. “Quite surprising this “reframing” knowing that this year they are all involved, hardworking and volunteers while last year some students slept instead of going to class and were excused”, “Completely out of place and stupid this reframing! !! They want the Chavagne boarding school or that of the Chorists?”, “I have the impression that he is talking nonsense. The banalities of a cheap coach. He absolutely does not have the intellectual level for that .” can we read for example among the reactions.
I feel like he’s talking nonsense. Two-headed coach banalities. He absolutely doesn’t have the intellectual level for that.
