Emma Vanpoulle, to serve you! Particularly bad at mathematics and physical sciences at school, my professional path naturally led me towards the path of writing. With a BAC L in hand, I decided to put my skills at the service of journalism and, being a great investigator of stars, I quickly moved towards the people. And more particularly towards TV personalities. With me, discover all the secrets of the small screen!
Saturday evening, TF1 broadcast a new number of “The Voice”. The blind auditions continued and one candidate in particular sparked a lot of reactions. For good reason, she made a daring cover of a popular song, leaving the coaches perplexed.
The Voice 2024: A “wet squib” candidate for adventure? The Bigflo brothers and Oli get into a fight in the middle of a show

“I hope to add a touch of fun”. The candidate calling herself Red Varnish certainly made an impression by participating in The Voice. Her passage was broadcast this Saturday March 2, 2024 and she took on the challenge of succeeding in making people like the cover of a song that “basic people would not have liked or listened“.
And for this, Vernis Rouge has decided to bet on the title Organized Band from the collective album 13’Organisé. A rap song gently covered by the young woman on the piano but with the same lyrics. “Fuck your mother on the Canebière, fuck your dead in the Old Port“, she sang in particular. Only the brothers Bigflo and Oli turned around, almost at the last minute of the performance of Vernis Rouge. And it was Bigflo who took the initiative, leaving his younger brother unconvinced. “You got me“, he said to the candidate. “Flo pressed without warning me (…) We could have talked about it too“, regretted Oli. But for Bigflo, Vernis Rouge has potential. “I found the structure interesting, the way you dissected everything, I found the artistic proposal interesting, I found it so daring“, defended the rapper.
Bigflo makes a big bet on Vernis Rouge
Afterward, well aware of his impulsiveness, Bigflo recognized that this was a big “gamble” for the future. “Either we discover an artist who has a sick universe and we get a kick out of it or it was a damp squib.”, he confided to his fellow coaches. Only the rest of the adventure will tell us. But in the meantime, Vernis Rouge is determined to “show other facets” of her.
On X (formerly Twitter), opinions are in any case very divided. “A total scandal….the lyrics on prime time ‘fuck your mother’ A SCANDAL!!!“, “Yeah…it’s a bit of a Vernis Rouge scam“, “The cover of Vernis Rouge is really the most explosive thing I’ve seen“, denounced some. Others, on the contrary, greatly appreciated and highlighted the great audacity of the artist.
Either way, Red Varnish knew she would be talked about. “It’s completely insane what’s happening. I knew it would get people talking in the sense that it is original so I understand that it unleashes passions. It’s crazy and wonderful. It’s mission accomplished!“, she confided on her social networks.
And also declare to Tele-Leisure : “I am very happy. JI was pretty sure that if any coaches turned around, it was Bigflo and Oli, and not Zazie. I really like what they do, and they write very well. JIf I imagined what was happening in their brains, they must have understood nothing. In two minutes, I had them burn out. I love reactions like that.“
