Star Academy: Michael Goldman takes Léa back and gives her advice from her father!

Tension is felt more than ever in the castle of Dammarie-les-Lys. Except for Louis, who was the best performing student in the assessments, all other nominees were nominated on Wednesday and will therefore be in the hot seat during the Star Academy bonus on Saturday. It’s a complex situation that affects emerging singers. For example, Léa had a hard time with her teachers’ negative comments after her assessments.

The 24-year-old was summoned by promotion director Michael Goldman, who wanted to get her back on track after she missed gym class. “I decided not to go to gym class this morning because it’s on my days when I’m not very good, I really hate to complain but I felt like I shouldn’t go to class because it was too much for me there. The teacher must say to himself “Léa has given up”. I actually really need a rest to take a day off. I said to myself, I’m going to sleep like this, and I’ll get back up a bit.‘”, he justified himself first.

A statement that didn’t quite convince Michael Goldman. “When you say you need it, it’s in your head, you don’t need it physically. There are three students who are sick there, they are still teaching, and they are the three who do best with their assessments. It is important to us that you follow all the courses. It’s a gift, maybe you’ll understand later. As long as we don’t risk your health and I assure you that no one will risk your health, you actually have no excuse (…) If you don’t put in the effort of others, I can assure you that people will not forgive you.‘ snapped the director.

He then gave advice that his father, Jean-Jacques Goldman, had given him in the past. “My father always told me that the interesting thing about sports is not the sport, but the shower after it. The course is terrible, difficult, but when you finish, you say to yourself, ‘I did it’. You don’t give up”He fell for Léa, happy to finally be revived this way.
