A disrupted duplex
If, at studio 217 in La Plaine Saint-Denis, the evening started rather well, that of Mathieu Johann was eventful.
In fact, the former telecrochet candidate had made the trip to Villedieu-les-Poêles, a small town in Manche where Pierre comes from, to secure a duplex.
But from his first connection with Nikos Aliagas, microphone problems appeared.
"I can not hear you.
Can we turn on Mathieu's microphone, please?
The atmosphere is crazy, we see it but we don't hear it.
The microphone is covered by the atmosphere
,” commented the host.
This bug occurred several times during the evening.
Mathieu Johann was in Villedieu-les-Poêles.

First tears
For his first duet with a guest artist, Pierre sang
Corps
with Iseult.
A song that particularly touched Lénie who could not hold back her tears.
“Delicacy, inspiration and emotion
,” declared the host.
A big thank you Iseult for this suspended moment.
It was a delicious moment.”

A false note
The two students still in the running were entitled to a retrospective of their journey within the TF1 telecrochet.
The perfect opportunity for Julien to once again tackle a song that had given him a hard time.
Indeed, during the fifth prime at the beginning of December, the voice of the Palois had stopped on
Le Temps des Cathédrales
.
Saturday evening, after sharing a first duet on
Que tu reviens
, the young man and Patrick Fiori found themselves on stage.
But when
he was about to intone “The time of cathedrals is gone”
, Julien missed it again, letting out a beautiful and audible false note.
"Oh shit !"
, he said without losing his smile.
“They don’t stop singing, these boys.
They are not machines either
,” remarked Patrick Fiori at the end.

Dadju's surprise
A few minutes before the end of this final bonus, Pierre was treated to a nice surprise.
Indeed, while he had started to perform
Compliqué
with Dadju, the latter decided to interrupt everything to let the candidate sing one of his compositions.
“I want to have fun and today, I don’t want us to sing Dadju, I want us to sing Pierre
,” he declared without having previously warned Nikos Aliagas or production.
“I know that Uncle Nikos doesn't like unexpected events live like that
,” remarked the singer, visibly amused by the situation.
"It was not planned.
I'm behind the scenes, I wasn't aware either so well done Dadju, that's also what being an artist is, adapting.
It’s a first for “Star Ac’”
confirmed the host while Pierre prepared to perform
What We Were
.
Michael Goldman upset
Just before discovering who, Pierre or Julien, won the most votes from viewers, the thirteen students in this promotion took up
Family
by Jean-Jacques Goldman.
A title evocative of their strong friendship and whose words upset several of the young candidates but also Michael Goldman.
“This is how the most beautiful stories end.
Without regret, with gratitude and joy
,” commented Nikos Aliagas.
