After five years of absence from The Voice, the flagship Saturday evening program on TF1, Zazie has made a comeback among the coaches instead of Florent Pagny. She joined Vianney, present in the jury for three years already. Two popular singers who have become friends on sets, but not only… For the magazine Tele-Leisure, the artists played the game of answering “from a distance” (she, from her Parisian home under construction, he walking in the Yvelines countryside) to questions in crossover. “What did you think of each other before meeting through The Voice?” asks the journalist. And Vianney to answer with a laugh: “It’s an embarrassing question!I have admired Zazie for a long time. The first time I met her, it was a pleasant surprise. We like and we listen to the same things, for example rock. This is also how the connection was made between us.” And Zazie to confirm: “I have the impression that, you like me, we don’t know how to do other than be ourselves. With all that excess and frankness entails! As a result, the human encounter, beyond that with the artist, is super nice.”

“He likes big voices and I like weird little voices”
Looking for the little beast, the interviewer then asks: “Are you bothered by certain little tics now that you know each other better?” And the singer to reply:“Seeing Vianney turn around at the last moment when I thought I was the only one to have done it, it may have annoyed me a little. (smile)” And the guitarist to retort:“I am not doing it on purpose ! It only happened to me three times, that’s not many. At Zazie, nothing bothers me. I am often impressed by his remarks, which are super relevant, just like those of Amel (Bent, editor’s note). Amel is very technical and Zazie has a huge musical culture. Sometimes their interventions immediately lead me to think that I lost the case.”, he admits, annoyed. Playing on their visible complicity, the magazine is then interested in the duos they would have liked to form if they had each had the possibility, like Big Flo and Oli, of sharing a double armchair… And Zazie d immediately confess: “With Florent (Pagny, Editor’s note), I would have had a blast because we don’t necessarily have the same talents. He likes big voices and I like weird little voices. We would have fried, it would have been interesting for the public. I would also have liked to share this chair with Romain Gary, because he had a rather dazzling analysis of things, and with Charlie Chaplin, who would have mimed some crazy stuff.” And Vianney to confide in regretting a great legend who disappeared too soon: “I have an old fantasy: it would have been spending time with Jacques Brel. He could have brought a lot to the talents of The Voice and to me too.” !
