Come on, we were just waiting for this.
Who would dance with Billy Crawford, the star of the 2000s, “the” star of the show this year.
With Fauve Hautot, the historical dancer of the show.
We held our couple from the twelfth edition of Dancing with the Stars.
On paper.
And on the floor, even more.
It was 10:45 p.m. and it was finally dancing like "eggs", a word with which the singer of "Tracking" described Fauve Hautot in French.
A dream cha cha, dressed in sparkling gold, we would have liked it to last much longer.
Everyone was smiling, even Chris Marques, on set and in front of his TV.
Four immunity buzz, direct qualification.
“You have to relax your jaw”, just said the new juror Marie-Agnès Gillot.
"He's a very stressed person," warned Fauve at rehearsals, of the ex-hip hop icon trying his hand at ballroom dancing at age 40.
Cha cha, overwhelmed, the public.
Billy Crawford will come back, that was the idea at the same time.
Red Buzzer, Gold Square...
Koh Lanta-style immunity buzz?
We needed an update.
The very first season was in February 2011, during winter sports.
It's crazy, these shows that make you remember when the children were little, asked you to vote by text and had Fauve as a superheroine, already.
"She resigned, like Mbappé", launches the host Camille Combal.
Truce of memories, twelve seasons later, the show does not have time to look in the rear view mirror.
Then we dance.
Under the gaze, two premieres, of two new jurors, the singer Bilal Hassani and the star of the Paris Ballet Marie-Agnès Gillot, around the star dancer François Alu and the historic Chris Marques.
Also new, the intractable Chris benefits from a red buzzer which can send a dancer dunce directly into the relegation of the face-to-face.
Carré d'Or or Hot Seat, and so on, these brand new gadgets or almost, as in all entertainment that exceeds ten years, the rules sing all the time to keep you looking young.
But it's complicated, like a game of goose.
The look of David Douillet
Anggun begins with a chacha, with pro Adrien Caby: "I've never danced, I don't like to sweat, I don't practice sports of this kind", she admits directly.
The singer is not wrong, she is not too sweaty.
"Extraordinary" hands, but the legs, you have to work, says François Alu.
Amandine Petit, Miss France 2021, with Anthony Collette, did better on her tango.
David Douillet, the Olympic tatami champion, we didn't see him coming, with his Dude look in "The Big Lebowski" on an American Smooth dance, punctuated by "Mesdames" by Grand Corps Malade, with Katrina Patchett.
For us, emotion sequence, all good.
For Chris Marques, all soft, "too weak", red buzz towards the face-to-face.
That's "Dancing with the stars", what we feel, what others judge.
Actor Thomas Da Costa of “Here it all begins” – we share a lot at TF1 – won the first immunity buzz.
We did not discover the twelve candidates for this first “bonus”, but only half, with these second rounds and these ultra-fast knife duels, as if we were going straight to the overtime of a match.
The more you eliminate, the more the adrenaline rises.
Of the three “stars” in danger, it was Eva Queen, singer, who was saved by the public.
With such a nickname, she could not already give up the crown.
The jurors kept Anggun, who will have to sweat a little more.
David Douillet was eliminated in the first round.
In terms of his last dance, nothing to say.
Hard for a heavyweight to look light in this ballet.
The Olympic champion here is Billy Crawford.
