In this third all-new broadcast of "Chante ... si tu peux!", the colourful teams will do battle as usual, under the (averted) gaze of the panel consisting of Eve Angeli, Francis Lalanne and Philippe Candeloro.

• The Fans vs. the Drag Queens: Thomas, Pascal and Michael Brown (fans of Florent Pagny, Pascal Obispo, James Brown and Michael Jackson respectively) go head to head with the highly provocative Bettybitch, Texia and Candypop.
  
  
• The "Secret" team vs. R & B: Laurent, an Anglican priest and novice singer, his friend Christian and Maryline, the medium from Season 2 of Secret Story, take on groovy girls Cynthia, Virginie and Estelle.

align="left"/>Strapped to a wheel turning at high speed, Bettybitch and Thomas will treat us to their interpretation of "I Love Rock'n'Roll" and "Ma Liberté de Penser". Texia and Pascal, on the other hand, will have the pleasure of eating a cocktail of earthworms, crunchy crickets and other dainty morsels whilst singing "Free from Desire" and "Fan".

Cynthia and Laurent will be subjected to the tender mercies of some ferocious dogs as they wrestle with "I'm Outta Love" and "On se retrouvera". Their team mates, Virginie and Christian, have an infestation of mice ... in their trousers! And last but not least, an erupting volcano will accompany Maryline and Estelle as they sing "Light My Fire" and "Respect".

MECHANICS OF THE CONTEST

In each round, the two teams will go head to head in three individual duels: one fun, one action and one fear. Each duel will see a member of each team battling the same distraction, after which the panel will deliver its verdict.

At the end of the third and last duel (which scores double), the team with the most points will qualify for the final. The two finalist teams will see how long they can hold out on the turntable without being dislodged by their opponents. The winners will then head into the bonus round, where there is a prize on offer of up to €10,000.
