Vianney involvement in Star Academy 2026

Overview

Reports initially indicated that French singer Vianney was set to become the godfather for the 2026 season of the television competition Star Academy. The upcoming season was expected to feature structural changes, including the departure of director Michaël Goldman and several faculty members.

Vianney later confirmed via social media that he will serve as the godfather for the TF1 program. In his announcement, he noted that his focus had been elsewhere due to personal news, stating, “I would have liked to be more creative in the form to announce this to you, but my mind is elsewhere because I am writing to you from the maternity ward,” as he is expecting a new child. The new season, produced by Endemol France and directed by Mosimann, is expected to launch in October.
