we were there … we tell you!

It begins as soon as you enter the Zénith, where in addition to having to show your health pass, you must throw his mask in the trash to put on a clean one, and black, “because it looks better on TV“We are told. A mask that the driver asks for again before the end of each commercial break to put back in place ..!”Otherwise it can be seen on the screen “.

A driver who harangues the audience. And the result is there. Thunders of applause, so much so that Sylvie Tellier and Jean Pierre Foucault have a hard time getting along. “We did not hear the orders we were given from the OB van“she tells in a press conference at the end. Fortunately, their text scrolls on the teleprompter located just above the jury. Beside a man who lowers a white flag to indicate to the misses when they should come forward towards the public during shows.

We take full eyes, but we must not film anything everything is under license. Also pay attention to the lag! Admittedly the evening is live, except the table of regions recorded the day before, but there is three minutes away from the broadcast on TV, to keep control of the antenna in the event of an incident. Everyone is warned during the commercial breaks thatyou should not immediately tweet the results. Instructions which will not necessarily be respected … However, it will be regularly repeated!

And what was it then these cries coming from the wings before each resumption of direct? The war cry of the misses before going on stage:

“Miss France 2022, you will be amazed! Miss France 2022, we are going to set fire!”

And in the hall, why 4400 people, when only 2500 places were on sale? Because there are the members of the regional committees, the families, but also a whole host of guests. And some phrases heard at the end, like “It doesn’t pick up here … it picks up better in Dubai” leave little doubt. The influencers are here! Because the evening is spent on TV, but also on social networks. Three young women who did not have the black bracelet assigned to journalists and were still waiting in the press conference room were almost ejected manu militari by a security guard, before declining their profession: influence. We give you a tip: it seems to work …!

Last question why did Malika Ménard not have her Miss scarf when she took the stage to interview the five finalists? In off, she explained that she had simply forgotten it at home. In short, a “sacred evening” as the conductor of the show would say, the stainless Jean-Pierre Foucault.
