“You've grown up, Charles!” said Roxane Bruneau when she recognized who was on stage The voice.
The tenth season of La Voix began on Sunday, January 21st, and a familiar face came to try his luck. Charles Kardos, now 20 years old, won the first edition of the youth version of the show that aired on TVA (2016 and 2017) when he was 13 years old.

“I remember how much fun I had last time. There was a little moment where I paused a little [de chanter]“So I wanted to get back into it and do it in an intense way,” Charles Kardos explains to host Charles Lafortune.
The artist tried his luck with That's Life by Frank Sinatra on the piano, but the trainers didn't turn around, even if France D'Amour, Corneille and Mario Pelchat were about to press the red button.
When the four artists turned around at the end of the performance, they immediately recognized Charles:
“I've heard Billy Joël, I've heard Freddy Mercury, I've heard Frank Sinatra, but now I can't wait to actually hear you. It is true that we are the sum of all the influences of the people we love, but at a given moment we have to find ourselves, find out who we are, what our voice is and what we mean. I have the impression that you will fully develop here (…),” explained France D'Amour.
With a smile, Charles left the stage as Charles Lafortune told him that he looked forward to hearing one of his songs on the radio one day.
La Voix airs every Sunday from 7pm on TVA and TVA+.
