She continued her studies at the Condé school in Paris.
She fell in love with music at the age of 7 and learned the saxophone and music theory. But gradually, she turned to rock music. With four friends, she founded the group Asmoday , an indie rock quintet who were an opening act for Rage Against The Marmots. Sophie-Tith eventually left the girl band She stopped studying music theory and saxophone at the age of 14 to focus on her schooling, but at high school, when she was 16, she and her friends founded the group Nova which had 5 members with Sophie on vocals.

Sophie-Tith signed up for the show a week after her 16th birthday. She went to castings in Lyon and got 4 yes votes from the panel (André Manoukian, Sinclair, Maurane and Olivier Bas), letting her travel to Paris for the next round. She reached the round for singing in trios with a version of Bang Bang by Nancy Sinatra. She then performed It vexes me by Mademoiselle K for the orchestral playback round. But the choice was difficult for the judges who decided to set up a final test in a sudden death round. Sophie sang Mad World by Tears for Fears. She was one of 10 candidates selected for the live performance. To date, she is the youngest winner of La Nouvelle Star.
Jalouse
Sophie-Tith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
J'comprends pas ce qu'elle me veut, sentiment animal
Car je suis ce qu'elle rejette
Et elle est tout ce que j'aime
Son sourire est une arme comme une hyène elle me saigne
Oui je l'aime comme je la hait
J'veux être elle
Ça te plairait
Qu'elle se sente mal que ça empire
J'ai les yeux comme des flingues
Que de la haine dans mes seringues
J'suis jalouse
J'veux qu'elle crève, qu'elle ait mal,
Qu'on me trouve impardonnable
J'suis jalouse
Elle est tout ce que je suis pas,
Elle est bonne dans ses bras,
J'suis jalouse.
Comment me sortir de ça partir d'où j'suis même pas ?
J'suis jalouse de toi.
Qu'est-ce qui m'arrive dit moi j'peux pas croire que j'en suis là
Dans mes rires y'a des larmes j'me sens lâche une épave
J'voudrais relever la tête être une femme pas une bête
Être celle qu'on accepte être celle qu'on respecte.
J'ai les yeux comme des flingues
Que de la haine dans mes seringues
J'suis jalouse
J'veux qu'elle crève qu'elle ait mal
Qu'on me trouve impardonnable
J'suis jalouse
Elle est tout ce que je suis pas
Elle est bonne dans ses bras
J'suis jalouse
Comment me sortir de ça partir d'où j'suis même pas ?
J'suis jalouse de toi.
(J'suis jalouse de toi, j'suis jalouse)
(J'suis jalouse de toi, j'suis jalouse)
J'ai les yeux comme des flingues
Que de la haine dans mes seringues
J'suis jalouse
Elle est tout ce que je suis pas
Elle est bonne dans ses bras
J'suis jalouse
Comment me sortir de ça partir d'où j'suis même pas ?
J'suis jalouse de toi.
J'ai les yeux comme des flingues
Que de la haine dans mes seringues
J'suis jalouse
J'veux qu'elle crève, qu'elle ait mal
Qu'on me trouve impardonnable
J'suis jalouse
Elle est tout ce que je suis pas
Elle est bonne dans ses bras
J'suis jalouse
Comment me sortir de ça partir d'où j'suis même pas ?
J'suis jalouse de toi
J'suis jalouse de toi
J'suis jalouse
J'suis jalouse de toi
J'suis jalouse de toi
J'suis jalouse
J'suis jalouse de toi
