The hour is serious in the castle of Dammarie-les-Lys (Seine-et-Marne).
The names of the first three named in this new edition of "Star Academy" on TF1 were revealed to the students in the daily broadcast this Thursday evening.
It is the director, Michael Goldman, who announces “the three least good ones” to the anxious class: Amisse, Ahcène and Julien!
The ax falls like a few tears… from Anisha, too moved to see her friend Julien in the hot seat.
“I really hope he will pull himself together,” she says.
He, on the contrary, finds it “normal”.
"I'm still taking quite a cold shower," he tempers before cracking a few hours later out of sight in the garden.
Ahcène also expected it but he swears it: “I will do everything to stay as long as possible”.
Julien hid in the bushes to decompress when his appointment was announced.

Concretely, how will this happen?
During the next telecrochet prime time this Saturday evening on TF1, a candidate will be saved by the public, and their apprentice singers will choose one of the two remaining ones.
“It's not a punishment, it doesn't question your qualities,” warns Michael Goldman, before “summoning” everyone to his office for a formal motivational session.
Always in benevolence with his deep and calm voice, the quadra, who lets himself be familiar with, also shows psychology.
The key: helping the young Amisse find her identity between slam and Adèle, pushing Julien not to give up and Ahcène to give more of herself.
Private lesson for Carla
At the heart of this new day, details of the second live evening have also been revealed: Amir will sing his title “Retina” with Lea.
Louis, Paola and Anisha will perform a medley by Julien Clerc with the artist himself, Carla will do a duet with Adé, the new queen of French country, rapper Naps will be with Cenzo and Tiana ("it's a trick crazy”, she says), the British pop revelation Lewis Capaldi with Anisha…
As a bonus for Carla, a special moment for having been the best student in Yanis Marshall's class: she will dance and sing to "Moi Lolita", by Alizée.
She has, moreover, had the right to a private lesson from the teacher to prepare for it.
The epilogue of a day that had started with bursts of laughter.
Adeline, the singing teacher, gave a short nat science lesson to the students.

"Is someone going to wax their mustache with me?"
I took some wax,” Enola had asked her friends early in the morning, prompting a giggle.
"Now we just have to wait, the auditions are behind us," she said, before getting angry a few hours later against the assessments.
After their sports session when they woke up, the students massacred a rap by Orelsan.
And ran to Adeline, the fiery-haired teacher, determined to make them find their diaphragm.
Anisha, as for the other exercises, wowed the gallery.
The pearl of this new season.
