Victor Wembanyama 2nd favorite French personality for 7-14 year olds

Soprano has secured the top position in this ranking for the sixth time, though not consecutively. Last year, the leading spots were held by swimmer Léon Marchand and judoka Teddy Riner, whose popularity received a significant boost from the Paris Olympic Games. Notably, the survey reveals that twelve athletes are featured within the top 50 personalities, with six of them making it into the top 10.

With Soprano aged 47, Olivier Giroud at 39, and Victor Wembanyama at just 22, it is highly anticipated that these prominent figures will continue to rank among the most popular personalities in such surveys for many years to come.

This comprehensive ranking is the result of an OpinionWay survey, which was conducted between January 12 and 19. The study gathered responses from a representative sample of 618 children, all aged between 7 and 14 years old.

Here is the ranking of favorite personalities among 7-14 year olds:

  • 1. Soprano
  • 2. Victor Wembanyama
  • 3. Olivier Giroud
  • 4. Inoxtag
  • 5. Ousmane Dembélé and Léon Marchand
  • 7. Gims
  • 8. Antoine Griezmann
  • 9. Zinédine Zidane
  • 10. Michou and Jamy Gourmaud
