He was almost directly followed on stage by Angèle, the only Belgian nominated on Friday evening, in two categories subject to public vote: “original song” and “Audiovisual creation“. This for his last title “Brussels I love you“, which she sang while sitting on a giant Liège waffle, with a screen showing a cloudy sky behind her, on which images of the Red Devils furtively appeared, disappointed with their elimination during the last Euro football tournament. Angèle then sang her title “demons” with Belgian rapper Damso.
Angèle is overtaken by Orelsan
The Brussels woman however did not win any Victories, the two prizes for which she was nominated having been won by Orelsan who defended the title “The smell of gasoline“as Original Song and Documentary”never show that to anyone” for the Audiovisual Creation prize, six episodes of around forty minutes directed by Christophe Offenstein and Orelsan’s brother. Convinced that his brother would meet with success, Clément Cotentin filmed the rapper’s debut and compiled these images, embellished with archives and recent interviews to realize his portrait.
Angèle left with the awards for revelation album of the year for “brol” and Audiovisual Creation for “To forget everything” in 2019, as well as for the Concert of the year in 2020 for the “Brol Tour“.
