“Star Academy”: how did the far-right newspaper “Rivarol” end up on the set?. An issue of the negationist weekly appeared furtively on Saturday evening during a table between Patrick Fiori and Julien.
The production company Endemol France, which produces the front page program, announced that it was doing everything it could to shed light on this unfortunate use. “We regret and strongly condemn that a propaganda newspaper, in complete opposition to the values of the Star Academy, appeared in a painting last night (Saturday evening) during the final,” the company said.
