Olivia Ruiz in concert at the Bataclan on 3 and 10 of April 2006: From "the real TV" to "the real artist performer"

Résumé du document

In France, the Loft Story TV programme paves the way for the real television. Now, lots of viewers watch “ordinary” people eating, sleeping, and arguing… Overnight these stage actors become famous just having talent to be on television. Andy Warhol was right when he said “In the future, everyone will be famous for 15 minutes”. Olivia Ruiz was one of the pioneers of the French real TV. She took part in the show Star Academy in 2001. However it seems Olivia is a different case. Indeed she is, more and more, seen as a “real” artist performer. For her second national tour, her show in Paris takes place at the Bataclan on 3 and 10 April. During this tour, the young singer wins, totally, recognition of the audience. So, I will study, through the 10th April concert, how did Olivia free herself from the real TV marketing system to be an exception becoming a real artist.

[...] o Bataclan history The Bataclan is a place steeped in history. It has been built in 1864. At the time, the place was named: Grand Café Chinois BA-TA-CLAN theatre” because it was built in the form of a Chinese pagoda. From 1865, André Martin Pâris gave the new and final direction receiving some light comedies, revues and singers.
