Mickeael gallo (The Voice 2025) “exhausted“By his profession as a teacher: “I had to stop for more than a month “
Télé-Loisirs : You have been working as a singing teacher for years. What decided you to participate in the adventure The Voice And therefore to pass to the other side of the microphone?
Mickaël Gallo: I exhausted myself a lot as a teacher, to help others. I had to stop for more than a month, because it was tooI had arrived at the end. Chance made that I saw a hearing pass for a cabaret, I applied, I was recalled. I passed my audition with a big angina, laryngitis, and I was still taken! I told myself that there must have been something. I had sung precisely Sunnyas in the blind auditions, but also The singer by Daniel Balavoine.
You have become a young dad. Has devoting yourself to raising your son you pushed you to pass this vocation to the background?
Indeed, I was not in this research to make music because I had to find food work. We had to take his responsibilities quite young. I did not take advantage of my youthI did not celebrate during my 20 years like all my friends. But I was so happy. Since very young people I am often told that I am an old young [rires]. It is only now, at 33, that I have a little more fun. Because the little one grows, it is no longer the same report. He makes me grow and stay young.
You often talk about your son Yolan, and notably mentioned his dys disorders and his academic difficulties. How do we compose with that as a solo dad?
Already, we have a mother who is very invested. I am always on good terms with her, even if We separated when he was 1 year and a half. We still see ourselves as an older. I played my role as a father, with alternate guard. We have always agreed on Yolan’s education. We can have points of disagreement between us, but he is the central point and he must be happy. We are in co-education. Indeed he has some difficulties, like me, I also have dys disorders. But we know how to overcome that. National education is now very alert and sets up support plans. I am proud of him.
Mickeael gallo on the semi-finals of The Voice : “That evening, I played my life”
You also talk about harassment you have lived as a child. What would you think of little Mickael today?
A lot of pride. If I had a message for him, it would be: “My guy, we did it!”. It’s a dream, I have chills just to say. When we undergo a wave of harassment because we are singing, we dance, we are happy, we are someone positive, it is not normal. Unfortunately, I died a little.
Have you rekindled the light in you?
I ask Patricia Kaas toLight [rires] And now it will shine!
For the semi-finals you interpreted The singer by Daniel Balavoine and seemed to have a lot of fun and to be inhabited by the song. Tell us this evening.
A few days before, I was in doubt. I was next to my rehearsals. It is as if I couldn’t find it meaning. We have a vocal coach who is in partnership with Patricia Kaas and who makes us work. He said incredible words to me. He told me to trust me above all and that I was a “Fucking singer”it was his term. Patricia also had words. She told me to go there and let it be what I must be, remove the singer as a singing teacher and singer to go to the interpreter, the one who will deliver his message. Afterwards, the rehearsals went well. But I think it That evening, I played my life. There was the film of my life in this song and at the same time it was the place for the final that was played and I could not miss it. It was stronger than me! I can even tell you that I have looked at my performance a dozen times to understand what happened, but I still don’t understand.
Did this song had a special resonance?
What I remember from this song is determination, perseverance, the fact of saying “I am here and I will go to the end of my artistic direction, from what I want to give to people”. I am a lot in sharing. Those who know me know that I am super available. People are not forced to love us. But when they love us, the least of things is to give them a little thing to say thank you.
The results of Mickeael gallo On his adventure The Voice : “I mainly got closer to myself”
You were saved in front of Laëlia and Aidan Rohrdespite very tight results. Did you expect it?
But not at all! [rires] It shows my head I think. I did not expect it because for me, Laëlia [qui s’était confiée sur son aventure après de Télé-Loisirs, ndlr] And Aidan were so incredible. It was either one or the other, but not me. I wondered what was going on.
You wonder about your artistic identity. Do you feel like you have found it?
I mainly got closer to myself. I understood that artistic identity is to be yourself. No matter what style you kiss, you have to stay connected to its intuition. The composition that I will present on Saturday is completely in the vein of whom I am. People no longer want formatting, they want to live an experience with the artist and I have this possibility. It’s great!
What is your best memory of this adventure?
Whenever Patricia Kaas pronounced my name [rires] ! These are mainly meetings with candidates. We were really a family in the Kaas team. It is not to make the Fayot, but we had a connection all together. I have news from everyone. Even between finalists we get along very well. We know that one of us will win, but we have already won everything when we arrived in the final. I think this season of The Voice was under the sign of sharing and benevolence.
This is the last straight line. How did Patricia Kaas have prepared for this final?
We had a lot of work. We had the title to finalize, the other songs to work with the coaches, the guests. I feel like I am always under adrenaline. Above all, she advised me to take breathing times, time for me. Because it will be intense.
What can we expect for this last evening?
The title I will sing is very dancing, disco, funk. You can expect to see Mickael Gallo on stage, who will defend his first song. And that’s huge.
Do you understand the final?
Yes. I am very perfectionist. I want to be able to be serene with the words, serene in my trips and that it suits my coach. Because Patricia Kaas remains very invested. The evening of the final, I will let go. But before, I need to mechanize certain things, to be well in place in my body. It requires hygiene of life: good sleep, learning, eating well.
And if you win The Voicewill it be a consecration?
A consecration and the way to my album. It’s a way of saying: “Micka we love you and we want you in our team” [rires].
