Career

edit

After debuting on Ciné Cinéma, alongside Laurent Weil, Pierre Zeni and Didier Lupfer, she started on Direct 8 in March 2005. On this emerging channel, she presented the shows TNT Show, Ça tourne and L'École des stars. She is also a columnist in the show Morandini!

In 2010, she joined the France Televisions group, to host of a new variety program, Encore une chanson, the first of which was broadcast live in prime time on France 2 on Saturday, 24 April 2010. During this show, guests were Marc Lavoine, Christophe Maé, Mylène Farmer and Calogero. The principle of the show is simple: each artist interprets two titles. If the public (whose votes are solicited by phone or SMS) asks for more, the artist interprets a third song. The program was canceled due to the low audiences (2.74 million viewers, or 14.1% of the audience).[3] Laurie also presented for several weeks the program entitled In the Universe produced by Alexia Laroche-Joubert. During this show, the host traced the life of a guest in songs.

Following the cancelation of her show, she created her production company PAT productions, and co-produced a prime-time special Abba on France 3 as well as the talent show Encore une chance on NRJ 12 bringing together several unlucky TV candidates. Star Academy, Popstars, New Star and X Factor.

In April 2012, she hosted the Valenciennes Film Festival 2.

As of March 2012, she was trying to stage a Voices for Hope event, a multi-artist charity event organized to raise funds for the fight against pancreatic cancer. On 15 September 2012, the first edition of this charity concert took place. All of the funds were donated to the ARCAD Foundation. Many artists are present to support the cause: Patrick Bruel, Christophe Maé, Dany Brillant, Julie Zenatti, Natasha St Pier, Mickael Miro, and Franck Dubosc.
