Danse avec les stars
La tournée 2013-2014
This is the first tour that is based on the French version of British Strictly Dancing show (Dancing with the Stars in US). The tour has stars and professional dancers from different season of Danse avec les stars. The first announced stars were Lorie (season 3), Gérard Vives (season 3), Brahim Zaibat (season 4) and Damien Sargue (season 4). After Alizée‘s victory of the season 4 of Danse avec les stars, she obviously had to join the tour also. Laury Thilleman and Laurent Ournac from the same season decided to join the tour also.
For the judges we, of course, had Jean-Marc Généreux, Chris Marques and his life partner Jaclyn “Jackie” Spencer (with whom Chris is the championship of salsa). However, during the tour the notes were in much smaller role than during the TV show. Either way, after each performance the judges gives the notes and gives critics for the performance. The actual winning couple is decided by the public. During the show, a special phone number was used where the audience could call for free and vote their favorite couple. The phone number was later changed to cost a little due to “abuse” from outside the concert hall.
The opening show was held on 19th of December 2013 at the legendary Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy, the biggest concert hall available in Paris. With over 17,000 people, the opening evening was spectacular. After Paris, the tour took a small pause for the holiday season but continued 11th of January 2014 in Nantes. From Nantes the show went around France, also visiting Brussels in Belgium, and finished 23rd of February 2014 in Rouen. Total of 21 shows were held, 20 of them in France and one in Belgium.
If looking at the numbers, the undeniable winner of the tour was Alizée & Grégoire with 16 wins out of 21 shows. Brahim & Katrina finished the second with four wins (two in Brahim’s home city, Lyon). Lorie & Christian was able to win one show. No other couple was able to win a show.
