Controversies

  • On the eve of the program's premiere, two participants, singers Lorie and Amel Bent, were accused by the magazine Oops of "cheating" by having started their training much earlier than the other contestants.[1] Both girls went on to share the top spot on the show's first and second broadcast.
  • The hiring of singer Shy'm, the previous season's winner, as a fourth judge has drawn some criticism about her legitimacy compared to her professional dancer colleagues, as well as cast doubt on her objectivity due to her friendly acquaintance of several contestants, such as Lorie, Chimène Badi and Amel Bent.

Around the Show

A notable contestant for the season was then 30-year-old Lorie, a singer wildly popular in the early 2000s that TF1 has tried to get on the previous two seasons but who had previously declined because she felt that as an accomplished dancer, her participation would be unfair to the other contestants. However, with her sixth album Regarde-Moi proving to be a huge commercial failure and causing her to split from her label, she evidently changed her mind and even timed the release of her next album Danse with the show. The strategy was unsuccessful as Danse sold even less copies than Regarde-Moi, forcing Lorie to cancel her planned 2013 concert tour.

People who are known to have been in negotiations for a spot include actor Laurent Ournac, as well as singers Alizée, who claimed in interview to be excited at the prospect, and Eve Angeli, who broke negotiations as she didn't want to be on the same season as Lorie.
