La Nouvelle Star returns in a few days for the 20th anniversary of the program. An evening event that looks back on the most emblematic candidates, and in particular François Raoult.
20 years ! First known asIn search of the New Starto become simply “New star“, M6’s cult TV show will be celebrating its 20th anniversary. The channel, which had abandoned its program for four years on C8, had tried the adventure again in 2017, but without meeting with audience success. However, many remember many winners and candidates, including François Raoult, who has since completely changed his life.
One of the emblematic finalists of Nouvelle Star has changed his life
Remember, on June 16, 2010, the viewers of the sixth channel discovered live the performances of the two finalists of the eighth season. Luce and François thus faced the votes of the aficionados of the show, not without creating real tension as the two candidates had marked the season. But it was the first that finally received fan support. However, this did not prevent the second from trying his luck in music by releasing his first single in March 2012, then his very first album, a few months later, supported by Élodie Frégé. Previously, he had also participated in X-Factor, without managing to win his place until the bonuses. New star will therefore have been more favorable to him: “I had always promised myself to try my luck one day since college. Studies having taken me away from this goal, I ended up working in large groups and then one day, tired of this daily metro/work/ dodo, I decided to drop everything to try my luck (…) The New Star was a real human adventure that allowed me to grow and meet who I am”, he explains to Gala.

From music to cooking, there is only one step
Since then, he has put music aside to retrain… in the kitchen: “I am now an entrepreneur in Japanese gastronomy and tableware. I have also created a place to live and share in the south of Nantes which should open next May. It is an organic micro farm and a place where we organize events around music, gastronomy…” The one who became the father of a little Gabrielle therefore decided to move towards a very different field, but he did not hesitate to take the microphone for the 20th anniversary program, which will be broadcast in a few days on M6 .
