The show “Fort Boyard” is back for a new season 34. On Saturday July 1, 2023, the emblematic France 2 program made its comeback with its share of new features in terms of the rules of the game… and the characters! Viewers have thus discovered the new recruit, Passe Oussakass (which was initially to be called Mauvaise-Passe), played by actress Stéphanie Lhorset. They will also find Father Fouras, Delphine Wespiser in her two roles of Blanche and Rouge, but also Cyril Féraud in his role of Cyril Gossbo.
In the cast of the game this Saturday July 8: the former football star, Laure Boulleau, the former Miss France Maëva Coucke or the singer Vianney who were united in the same team. After a great performance, Vianney explained why he supports the Arsep Foundation who fights for research for multiple sclerosis. “It’s a nervous disease. There are maybe 115,000 people affected, so who are you watching? and who will see that we are thinking of them, that we are talking about them” said the 32-year-old singer before leaving overwhelmed with emotion by evoking a missing person who was dear to him.
Vianney facing the disease
Vianney has indeed revealed to have been “touched very personally” by this association because his mother-in-law “died this year of this disease”. The artist did not fail to send a moving nod to “this woman full of joy, full of life, who would have loved everything that happens here”.
Very moved, Vianney who is married to musician Catherine Robert continued: “When she left, it was when Father Fouras was recruiting. I applied and said: ‘I want to do it. For her, but above all for all the others who are counting on us, who rely on Arsep.'”. Happy to have participated in the game “for these patients” suffering from multiple sclerosis, Vianney was even more proud when he and his team managed to win nearly €20,000 for the foundation.
