Discover Your True Talent: How This Experience Proved My Skills
Isabelle Déry participated in a recent singing competition, with the semi-finals held on Noovo. Alongside her, the judges selected Francesco Vignone, Juliette Boulanger, East2west troupe, and the duo Adeline and JR Maddripp.
Isabelle Déry’s Journey
During her performance, Déry faced technical sound issues reminiscent of challenges from August. Despite her setbacks, she focused on her main goal: gaining visibility as a singer. In an interview with La Voix de l’Est, she stated, “My goal was to be seen on television, even just once.”
Challenges and Performance
Déry’s choice of songs was restricted due to copyright issues. She ended up performing “Parle-moi” by Isabelle Boulay in the semi-finals. The judges’ reactions indicated her potential elimination. Serge Denoncourt expressed the desire for more surprises, while Marie-Mai commented on her need to maintain certain vocal notes effectively.
Déry received praise for her rendition of “Ordinaire” in the quarter-finals, marked by audience enthusiasm. She noted, “During Ordinaire, the audience was on their feet. It was electrifying!”
Social Media Surge
In the aftermath of her performance, Déry was inundated with over fifteen hours of messages on social media. This surge of interest could help propel her to new opportunities after primarily performing at weddings and private events.
Next Steps
At 51, Déry feels her moment may have arrived. She has previously attempted to join shows like La Voix and Star Académie. Currently, she is undergoing a professional reorientation.
Meanwhile, Amélie Provost, another contestant, successfully advanced through the “La dernière note” round of Piano public. This competition featured twelve participants, all aiming to impress the judges within a strict time limit.
