Mosimann reveals behind-the-scenes details of Star Academy

Mosimann, the new director of Star Academy and former 2008 winner, has shared insights into the production infrastructure at the show's Dammarie-les-Lys filming location. In a recent interview, he described an extensive control room located beneath the historic castle, where production teams work in shifts day and night to monitor the students.

To capture the daily lives of the contestants, the production company, Endemol France, has installed 80 automated cameras. Staff members operate from a separate building to avoid disrupting the students' routines.

Regarding upcoming programming, the show announced that singer Marguerite will be the guest of honor for the prime episode on October 31. Following the recent appearance of Vianney, Marguerite is expected to perform her song ‘Un peu beaucoup’ and offer advice to the current class of students.
