Season chronology |
The third season of the French version of Dancing with the Stars debuted on TF1 on October 6, 2012. 10 celebrities were paired with 10 professional ballroom dancers. Sandrine Quétier and Vincent Cerutti return as the hosts for this season.
The participants of the season were officially announced by TF1 on September 18, 2012, though they were leaked a few days earlier by various media outlets.
A notable contestant for the season was then 30-year-old Lorie, a singer wildly popular in the early 2000s that TF1 has tried to get on the previous two seasons but who had previously declined because she felt that as an accomplished dancer, her participation would be unfair to the other contestants. However, with her sixth album Regarde-Moi proving to be a huge commercial failure and causing her to split from her label, she evidently changed her mind and even timed the release of her next album Danse with the show. The strategy was unsuccessful as Danse sold even less copies than Regarde-Moi, forcing Lorie to cancel her planned 2013 concert tour.
People who are known to have been in negotiations for a spot include actor Laurent Ournac, as well as singers Alizée, who claimed in interview to be excited at the prospect, and Eve Angeli, who broke negotiations as she didn't want to be on the same season as Lorie.
