Françoise Avignon

Françoise Avignon is a contestant from .
Françoise made it to the merge without being targeted, and was elected for the Ambassadors meeting by her tribemates. At the meeting, William Lecomte of Korok proposed they cast the extra vote against Françoise's tribemate David Noël as he was the least likely to receive votes. Françoise agreed, as long as William didn't tell his tribemates before the vote. However, William broke his promise, allowing David to be blindsided in a 6-5 vote. This infuriated Françoise and she lashed out at William for lying to her. Françoise then fell into a minority as her former tribemates Stéphane Bertheau and Géraldine Doyen were voted out. Françoise, alongside her lone former tribemate, Gilles Nicolet, approached Michèle Valembois and Romain Bissol with a plan to blindside William for his deception. However, all the former Korok members voted out Michèle as they were uncomfortable with this plan. Françoise then successfully convinced Guénaëlle Biras and Patricia Tanguy to vote out William, but at the final five, Guénaëlle and Patricia wanted to stick with Romain for loyalty. As Gilles won the next Immunity Challenge, Françoise was the only target for elimination, and she was voted out in a 3-2 vote.

« Aller où le vent la mène » : telle est la règle de vie que Françoise veut suivre. Elle est effectivement toujours prête à saisir les opportunités, à essayer des choses nouvelles. Ce qui ne veut pas dire qu'elle subit les événements, bien au contraire. Dans sa vie personnelle, Françoise, déçue par deux maris, à divorcé deux fois. Professionnellement, elle a dû renoncer très jeune à son rêve : devenir journaliste. À cause de problèmes familiaux et malgré une scolarité plutôt brillante, elle a donc commencé à travailler à 18 ans. Elle a alors multiplié les postes dans le domaine commercial. Françoise explique en riant qu'elle a à peu près tout vendu, depuis les vêtements jusqu'au café, en passant par les sanitaires… Ces changements sont directement liés à son amour de la nouveauté. Quand elle a fait le tour d'un domaine, Françoise aime aller en explorer un autre. Il y a dix ans, elle a donc abandonné le commerce pour entrer dans la fonction publique. Elle a d'abord travaillé pour l'office de tourisme d'une ville du Nord, puis au bureau d'aide sociale. Aujourd'hui, elle s'occupe de personnes âgées au service d'aide ménagère. Françoise n'a que 41 ans. Autant dire que demain, elle pourrait bien faire quelque chose de radicalement différent. Son souci principal ? Que ses deux filles - Alexandra qui a 21 ans et Ophélie qui en a 12 - soient fières d'elle. « C'est pour elles que je me décarcasse », dit elle. Et elle se décarcasse très bien, avec comme armes un appétit de vivre et une curiosité naturelle assez incroyables. Fort probable, dans ces conditions, que le vent la mènera dans une très bonne direction.https://web.archive.org/web/20010802034754/http://www.tf1.fr:80/kohlanta/candidats/0,,802925,00.html

During the tribal phase of the game, Françoise received a few votes and voted incorrectly once. However, she was not targeted for elimination and maintained a steady position in her tribe. After being elected as the Ambassador of her tribe, during the Ambassadors' Meeting, representative William Lecomte wrote David Noël's name as the Ambassadors' vote for the first merge elimination and told Françoise that he chose David because he is the least likely to receive votes due to his likability. The pair agreed that they would only tell the rest of the merged tribe within two hours of the first merge elimination. However, William notoriously broke his promise to Françoise by telling his fellow original Korok tribe members that David is the Ambassadors' vote early enough so that they could strategize to vote David out. Upon hearing of William's betrayal, Françoise infamously insulted and lashed out at William multiple times, even threatening to slap him at one point. When the original Korok tribe members succeeded in eliminating David in a 6-5 vote, they were given an opening for a pagonging of the original Lanta-naï tribe members. At the Final Seven, Françoise and Gilles Nicolet, who had secured individual immunity, in an attempt to save the original from elimination in the upcoming vote, attempted to get Romain Bissol and Michèle Valembois to vote out William due to his duplicity instead of Françoise. This failed as Guénaëlle Biras and Patricia Tanguy, along with Romain and William, flipped on Michèle, though this still worked in their favour since an original Korok tribe member was still voted out. After this, Guénaëlle and Patricia finally agreed to vote out William with Françoise and Gilles at the next elimination. At the Final Five, due to Gilles winning individual immunity, Françoise was the only original Lanta-naï tribe member vulnerable for elimination. Guénaëlle and Patricia voted against Françoise in favour of keeping Romain out of loyalty, eliminating her just before the finale.
