In the wake of a famous game of trickery, the program “Les Traîtres” is known to be particularly psychologically challenging. Players are locked in a castle for days and must uncover those who slowly try to eliminate them in secret. Over the seasons, many contestants have described how difficult it was to distinguish truth from lies. The pressure is so intense that sometimes the intervention of a psychologist is necessary during filming. As the 6th season of the game premiered on Saturday, March 28th on M6, Eric Antoine, the show’s host, noticed real differences among participants based on their professional background.

Which profession are the most pressure-resistant celebrities in “Les Traîtres”?
According to reports, the humorist explained that high-level athletes are the most stress-resistant: “They are used to high stakes and pressure.” He cited footballer Emmanuel Petit, who joined the cast this year and was targeted during the first roundtable by several players. “He doesn’t care, which is typical of high-level athletes. When you are a world champion, you have faced a lifetime of stress and criticism. They have a phenomenal pressure on their shoulders,” assured Gennifer Demey’s husband.
On the contrary, according to Eric Antoine, the contestants who suffer the most from the filming conditions are content creators. Why? “They suffer at the slightest change in their image. They are always afraid,” the presenter said. These players ask themselves more questions and fear not being appreciated by the public: “Will I be liked, will I not be liked, did I say something nice?”

What is the toughest role in “Les Traîtres” according to Eric Antoine?
Ultimately, the toughest role in the show is that of a “Traître,” as per Eric Antoine. Besides being responsible for eliminating players, those who find themselves in a red cape at night must lie to others, even as they form real friendships. “If they don’t distance themselves, they consider themselves as villains and have a hard time living the adventure,” explained Eric Antoine.
Eric Antoine, however, highlights the strength of the program: a cast that blends diverse profiles. An author, an actor, a world champion, or even a politician can confront each other or become very close. “I believe that only this show offers that. It’s the best casting I’ve seen,” the magician noted with enthusiasm. Once again this year, the audience enjoys witnessing the war between the Traîtres and the Loyalists!
