In 2024, the audience then discovered a whole new promotion of the Star Academy, among which was Charles Doré, who quickly bonded with Ulysse and then Marine. At the beginning of the adventure, the candidate had a few scares. Indeed, he seemed to not fully master his voice. And then, the breakthrough. Initially reprimanded by Sofia Morgavi, the singing teacher then took him under her wing to help him reveal his true potential. Result: a place on tour, and especially a title of semi-finalist against Marine, who could work with a famous French singer. Like many of his classmates, Charles Doré also released a single. A debut single, “Je pars mais je reste,” which was actually a cover of Philippe Campion. A detail far from being unnoticed. In an interview with Voici, Charles Doré opened up about the criticisms surrounding this song. However, it allowed him to connect with his audience and show a glimpse of his artistic universe.
Context: Charles Doré is a former contestant of the French reality show Star Academy who has pursued a music career.
Since then, Charles Doré has released his debut album titled “A l’équilibre.” He returned to the academy this year to sing with the students and offer them valuable advice. He warned them about life after Star Academy, which he found challenging. It is not easy to overcome criticisms, surround oneself with the right people for a musical project, or maintain a connection with the audience. But today, Charles Doré seems to be on the right track. Apart from Star Academy, he could have also participated in another iconic show: “Dance with the Stars.” “I did the tests, but it wasn’t possible for me this season,” he explained to Télé-Loisirs. The musician almost shared the dance floor with a former classmate, Emma, who fell during rehearsals for “DALS.” So, why did Charles have to give up on the show? “We tried to see if it was feasible with the dates of my tour but in the end, it didn’t work out,” he explained. Agenda issues made his participation impossible.
Context: Charles Doré declined the opportunity to participate in the show “Dance with the Stars” due to scheduling conflicts.
The tour of Charles Doré forced him to perform on several Friday nights, the same time the show airs, making it challenging for the singer to balance between dance rehearsals and his tour dates. However, Charles Doré, who has no intention of changing his name, seems to be a perfect candidate for next year: “If they offer me again and it’s possible, I’m open to it,” he said. A lovely invitation from the production. It remains unclear if he follows the paths of former Star Academy contestants who have participated in the program. Besides Emma defending her place in the quarter-finals this Friday, Julien Lieb and his dancer Elsa Bois were eliminated from the competition. Still in the competition, Lucie Bernardoni, another former classmate of Charles Doré, is expected to be present tonight, despite her recent arrest for violence against her daughter. Will the Star Academy be represented in the semi-finals of “DALS”?
Fact Check: Lucie Bernardoni is a former contestant of Star Academy and was arrested for alleged violence against her daughter.
