lieutenant has been speculated that it was Lavoie"s hailing from Quebec that might have been what prevented him from winning Nouvelle Star due to Quebec"s geographical isolation from other francophonic territories, as well as its small population as a voting proportion. Jean Sébastien received his biggest accolodates from the audience and panel of judges after performing Queen"s "We Are the Champions," and after finishing third in the competition Lavoie released his own version of the song as his first single. Lavoie"s version of Queen"s "We Are the Champions" cracked the top ten in ringtone sales across Europe in 2004.
Jean Sébastien has recorded two albums since Nouvelle Star which were both produced by BMG France, and still calls Montreal home.
