They gave their all during the classes they took when they were students of the eleventh class of Star Academy, as well as on stage during the bonuses. While there were thirteen at the start, only seven of them won their place for the Star Academy tour. They are Pierre Garnier, big winner of season 11, Julien, Djebril, Lénie, Candice, Axel and Héléna. The concert series, which includes around seventy dates, was launched on March 9.
And if they seemed wise when they were filmed as part of the famous TF1 show, the young artists would tend to be more talkative and more reckless during this adventure. In any case, this is what Héléna confided to our colleagues at Ciné-Télé-Revue. After being asked the question of the understanding between the candidates participating in the Star Ac’ Tour, the young Belgian replied: “Yes, it’s even better, because we know that there are no cameras constantly filming us, and we can therefore say what we want.” She then added: “We were always ourselves at the castle, but sometimes we held back from saying stupid things. Here, we are freewheeling.”

A well-received tour
The seven former students of the Star Academy therefore seem to be having a blast on the roads of France. They will have to provide seventy-five performances, including eight in Brussels, as our colleagues from Ciné-Télé-Revue. And the public is there. “The public is super welcoming in every city we pass through. We are very happy to experience all of this”, Héléna clarified to our colleagues. Before concluding : “On each date, we say to ourselves that the spectators could not be hotter, and they are at the next performance. They are very receptive. They sing the songs, they’re really into it.”
