JULIAN CANABY. Among the 13 candidates to have joined the 2022 season of Star Academy, Julien Canaby, whose brother is not unknown to viewers…
[Mis à jour le 24 octobre 2022 à 09h43] Safe ! Appointed during this very first week of competition at the Star Academy, Julien was drafted at the end of the bonus, Saturday October 22, 2022, on TF1. Thanks to his apparent nonchalance and his fragility, he is one of the strongest minds of the 13 students who entered the castle of Dammarie-les-Lys on October 15th. And the young budding artist is not the only one to have tried his luck on television.
Because if Julien Canaby was unknown when he arrived at Star Academy, the face of his brother is not unknown to viewers: Mathieu Canaby participated in the show Risingstar on M6 in 2014, reaching the final. Julien’s brother then tried his luck at the New star in 2017, where he came in fourth. Enough to give his little brother a desire for glitter, who does not however admit any particular ambition vis-à-vis the Star Ac’: “I come to get out of my comfort zone, to work the music, to work the dance , full of discoveries and I can’t wait!”
Julien Canaby, the troublemaker of Star Academy?
His nonchalance will have made him one of the first three named this season of Star Academy: Julien was in danger this week, alongside Ahcène and Amisse, eliminated. An uncomfortable position for the young man, who had to fight to save his place during the last prime on TF1, Saturday October 22. His evaluations, the very first, disappointed the teaching staff, who considered his level in singing and dancing insufficient.
Michael Goldman, director of the Star Academy, explains that Julien is a “super singer, don’t doubt it, but it’s hard to get access to you”, to justify this nomination. After having cracked and burst into tears in the bushes, Julien says he understands why he finds himself on the bench of the nominees. “I don’t know what to do, I’m completely lost in my life (…) I feel like I don’t belong at all, I don’t know what path has been traced for me”, confides he to Michael Goldman, director of the Star Academy, who for his part underlines the singing talent of his candidate. “I would like you to take the risk of pleasing us,” he encourages her.
During the very first evening of the season, Julien had nevertheless marked the viewers of Star Academy, which made its big comeback on Saturday October 15 on TF1, by resuming the song To be a man like youby Ben l’Oncle Soul, excerpt from the film The jungle Book. If he was surprised by his ability to be comfortable on stage, Laure Balon, stage expression teacher at Star Academy will not have failed to call him to order from the first bonus debriefing, Monday 17 october.
Who is Julien Canaby, Star Academy candidate?
If he has been passionate about music since childhood, it is because he grew up in an environment bathed in instruments and singers. The young man has also been singing since he was little, as he admitted to France Blue : “I have a family of musicians who have transmitted this love of singing to me for years and years. My mother is a singer and my father is a musician, piano, guitar… My older brother is also a singer.”
