Elodie Gossuin, who was spokesperson for France at Eurovision for several years, was terribly disappointed with this year’s result. But for the host, an element may have played against Louane’s disadvantage, according to her confidences to the “Journal des Femmes”.
The radiant Elodie Gossuin was not there this year to announce the points of the French jury to Eurovision, but, like millions of French people in front of their screen, she was particularly disappointed with the result, as she entrusted exclusively to the Women’s Journal. In addition, she mentioned with us the 2026 edition of the competition …
Elodie Gossuin, very “disappointed” for Louane: “It’s the cold shower”
If many French people believed in a Louane victory with his poignant title, Momat Eurovision, the disappointment was great this May 17 when the singer was classified 7th after receiving only 50 points from the public. “”When we hear for weeks that she is in favorites, it’s a bit of a cold shower“Uplined Elodie Gossuin, deplored Elodie.
For the 44 -year -old host, Louane would have largely deserved victory. “I am seriously disappointed! She was third of the jury and I thought, like everyone else, that she would have many more points of the public. I found that everything was there. The staging was magnificent, it’s full of emotions, there is a real story behind, it’s sincere …. Humanly, we see that it is a great person“She detailed.
“If we had won, I could have sing a ‘youhouhou‘(Laughs) “, she released in reference to her intervention at Eurovision in 2016, when she announced the points of France and had indulged in humming live the song of the candidate of the time, Amir.
Which could cost Luane’s victory according to Elodie Gossuin: “I think …”
“The problem is that it is a bit like Miss France, even if it is not comparable. There are votes according to the present moment, what is happening, of what makes such or such a person vibrate“She added.
For the host, the order of the services may have played against Louane, who sang in 24th position on 26 candidates, while the public votes have been open since the start of the evening: “I think that the show side, madness and originality is more at the end of the program. But I am convinced that the services that are in emotion require so much intention, and it must take people so much … that it may be too late when they are at the end of the evening.“”
Will Elodie Gossuin be back to Eurovision in 2026?
This year, Emilie Mazoyer announced the points of the French jury during the song competition. But Elodie Gossuin, who returned from a humanitarian trip to Cambodia with Unicef, will she again fulfill this role?
“”I would like to, but there is a concern for loyalty, since I now work in the M6 group. I hope always to see me entrusted with associative entertainment and I would therefore like to stay in the group. I am a bit of a acrobat of the show, but it’s been years that I have been in the M6 group and humanly, I feel too good! We will see what next year will be made“Added the one who was spokesperson for France to Eurovision from 2016 to 2018 and in 2022.
