IN BRIEF Lucie Bernardoni, vocal coach of the Star Academy, was absent from Dance with the Stars on Friday night after being placed under judicial control for “violence” against her daughter. She denies the allegations and her lawyers emphasize that she remains presumed innocent. Her future on the TF1 show remains uncertain.
Her absence did not go unnoticed by Dance with the Stars viewers. Lucie Bernardoni, the vocal coach of the Star Academy, did not appear on the dance floor of the TF1 show on Friday, April 3.
