This Tuesday, January 9, the Star Academy students received a visit from Vitaa at the castle. And Pierre is likely to remember this singing lesson with the artist for a long time to come.
Evaluations continue at Star Academy. The students are more motivated than ever before the semi-finals of the adventure. After passing the theatrical improvisation test on Monday then dance on Tuesday, the academicians continue this marathon evaluations with the last passage: singing ! While the pressure is at its peak, the students have the chance to receive visits from several artists this week to boost them. This Tuesday, January 9, Vitaa therefore surprised the students by arriving at the castle early in the morning. The 40-year-old artist even came to wake up Lénie who was still asleep in her bed.
The opportunity also for Vitaa to share the day with the students and to sing a few notes during Adeline Toniutti’s singing class. “It’s not every day that an artist like Vitaa comes to touch my cheek to put a bone back in place. I can say that Vitaa put my condyle back in place”, said Pierre with humor after the singing lesson. Back at the castle, the singer took the time to chat with all the academicians. And she decided to support one student in particular who has made a lot of progress in recent weeks. It’s Axel. She complimented the young man on his level of singing and his always very successful performances: “I don’t think I’ve ever seen you fuck up. You are the most perfect singer. Plus, on ‘Ti Amo’, they left you the hardest parts and you still managed“, she blurted.

The singer also asked the young artist to accept himself more even if she shares his point of view on wanting to be filmed the way he wants: “I haveI understood when you said you hated your profile because I’m the same (…) You have the right to ask how you want to be filmed. And that’s important because if you feel bad, you sing less well.” However, the singer wants the student to gain self-confidence on this subject. “We must accept ourselves as we are” she concluded.
