These are called job risks. Sophie Ellis-Bextor will long remember her time at the “Star Academy” this Saturday, January 27. The sequence could have gone unnoticed if Nikos Aliagas had not been concerned about the state of health of the dancers who performed behind the British singer during her duet with Héléna.

In question ? A table which gave way under their weight at the end of the production, inspired by the thriller Saltburn, who gave a second life to the hit “Murder On The Dancefloor”. The host concedes having had “a little scared”.
