Men and women are not treated the same

In 2001, customs are necessarily less advanced than today. Even today, men and women are not treated equally. Wage gaps continue to maintain debates because the fans are always paid less than the men. In France it’s about 20% less at the same job and for the same job. And beyond the wage gap, women have long been diminished compared to men. One has only to look at history to realize how much the struggle for women’s rights was a struggle. So this fight continues today and should never stop to achieve pure and simple equality.

Also, Valérie Bénaïm recounts having experienced this kind of discrimination. The gender of a person intervenes in the choices of the production of TF1 at the time of choice of the presentation of the star Academy. Questioned by Cyril Hanouna, she explains that the production did a study with the public and that the latter prefers to see a man animated the show. According to her, things would have been different today. Women are more and more regarded as capable just as much as men. And it’s time to come to this conclusion!

Nikos Aliagas has become irreplaceable as a host

Even if we are not going to rewrite history and that Nikos Aliagas has had the job, we can still salute his services. Indeed, in 2001, Nikos Aliagas was not a very well-known presenter either. Take care of star Academy assumed they could manage bonuses live during prime time. A real challenge that the facilitator was able to take up hands down.

And he is completely in his place in this role which requires a great professional and emotional investment.
