Star Academy Finale: The Countdown Begins
The thrilling season of *Star Academy* is drawing to a close, culminating in the highly anticipated grand finale on Saturday, January 25. Following this exciting climax, viewers can look forward to the documentary titled *Star Academy: Behind the Scenes of the Castle*, which will air at 4:10 PM on Sunday, January 26. This season has been filled with emotional moments and unforgettable performances. Since the semi-finals commenced on January 11, fans have been on the edge of their seats. The recent Prime was particularly noteworthy, as Marine and Charles faced off for a chance to remain in the competition, showcasing their vocal talents in front of the audience.
Ultimately, the audience decided Charles would leave the show, a decision that left his supporters disheartened. Social media buzzed with tributes to his remarkable talent. With Charles eliminated, Marine has secured her place in the final. Now the question arises: who between Franck and Ebony stands the best chance of taking the title against her?
Franck vs. Ebony: Who Will Triumph?
This Saturday, January 18, Franck and Ebony will go head-to-head in a thrilling Prime to determine who advances to the finale. The anticipation is palpable, especially after the exciting announcements made by Lucie Bernardoni and Fanny Delaigue during the live broadcast on January 13. Fans can expect appearances from musical icons such as Youssou N’dour, Marc Lavoine, Zaz, and the group Cats on Trees, along with a surprise international star whose identity remains a mystery. Both Franck and Ebony are poised to give it their all in this crucial performance.
The stakes are high as the competition heats up. While Marine enjoys a strong fanbase, recent polling suggests Franck may have the upper hand. Following Charles’s exit, Franck has gained significant support, amassing 69.5% of the votes by January 14, compared to Ebony’s 30.5%. If Franck secures public favor and reaches the final, he could potentially overcome Marine, bolstered by not only his own fans but also those of Charles and possibly even some of Ebony’s supporters.
While the contestants remain unaware of their popularity ratings due to limited contact with the outside world, they can infer their standing based on the public’s voting patterns. Marine recently visited Arras, close to her hometown, where she garnered overwhelming support, with over 1,000 fans showing up to cheer her on. One enthusiastic supporter expressed to La voix du Nord, “We voted for her! She is from our area, so we support her, and she has talent.” As fans rally behind her, the question remains: can Marine clinch the title, or will Franck or Ebony emerge victorious?
