Biography

Joël Legendre est né le 8 septembre 1966 à Sainte-Hélène-de-Bagot, près de Saint-Hyacinthe. Artiste multidisciplinaire, il a commencé sa carrière théâtrale à un très jeune âge, alors qu'il était pensionnaire au Cégep de Saint-Hyacinthe.

Il a joué pendant plusieurs années dans de nombreuses émissions pour enfants telles que: Iniminimagimo, Enfanforme avec Élyse Marquis, Fripe et Pouille. On a pu aussi le voir dans Tribu.com, Un gars, une fille et Covergirl. Au cinéma, dans Louis 19.

Joël Legendre a été chroniqueur à Radio-Canada, professeur d'expression orale à Star Académie, chroniqueur culturel de l’émission Des kiwis et a animé la très populaire émission Occupation Double, sur les ondes de TVA. Il anime aussi depuis 20 ans le téléthon Opération Enfant Soleil.

Depuis quelques années, il a multiplié ses apparitions au théâtre et dans plusieurs comédies musicales dont Grease, Irma la Douce, Cabaret et My Fair Lady. Il a aussi été metteur en scène du spectacle 2005 Revue et corrigée. Récemment, il a remporté un beau succès avec son spectacle Mes bouffées d’air pur au Cabaret de la Place des Arts.

Côté doublage, il continue aussi de faire les voix de plusieurs acteurs américains, dont Leonardo DiCaprio et Chris O'Donnell et a doublé et chanté le rôle d’Aladdin dans le long-métrage à succès de Disney, en plus de faire la voix chantée d'Hercule, toujours pour Disney. Dans les émissions jeunesses, on peut l'entendre doubler, entre autres, Carl et C2, dans Carl au carré, Arnaud dans Sourire d'enfer et Craig dans Edgemont.

En 2004, il a adopté un petit garçon, Lambert, de la Chine. Joël Legendre possède également d'autres engagements tels que le fait d'être végétarien, de respecter une hygiène de vie sans tabac ni alcool, pour lesquels il soutient et participe à plusieurs événements s'y rapprochant.

Le 16 septembre 2012, il anime le gala des Gémeaux. Dans la même soirée, il remporte le prix de la meilleure interprétation humour de l'année. Un trophée partagé avec l'équipe du Bye Bye 2011: Véronique Cloutier, Louis Morissette, Michel Courtemanche et Hélène Bourgeois-Leclerc.

Dans le Bye Bye 2012, il fait une représentation remarquable de Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois dans le clip populaire Gangnam Style, nommé Gabriel Nadeau Style. Il a été vu par plus de 200 000 personnes sur youtube en 3 jours. Il anime aussi à CITE-FM et la réseau Rouge depuis les années 2000 (sauf des années 2015-2018). Depuis 2018, Legendre est un collaborateur de Véronique et les fantastiques.

Le 12 mars 2015, il annonce « [se] retirer de [ses] activités professionnelles quelque temps », après que Le Journal de Montréal ait révélé qu'il avait reçu, plusieurs mois auparavant, un constat d'infraction pour s'être masturbé dans un parc, potentiellement à la vue de tous. La parution de cet article a aussi eu comme conséquence que la station de radio Rouge FM de Montréal a immédiatement mis un terme à son association professionnelle avec Joël Legendre (où celui-ci occupait alors un poste d'animateur).

Le 14 juin 2015, lors d’une entrevue diffusée à Radio-Canada, il mentionne brièvement son délit rendu public en mars 2015 et affirme être prêt à reprendre ses activités professionnelles publiques, notamment sa participation à la revue télévisuelle annuelle Bye Bye. À la suite de la controverse suscitée par cette entrevue au sein de la population, le diffuseur du Bye Bye (Radio-Canada) annonce le 26 juin 2015 qu’il juge préférable de ne plus faire appel aux services de Joël Legendre.

En juillet 2015, après quelques mois dans l'ombre, le Groupe V Média lui donne l'animation de la version québécoise de l'émission de télévision Lip Sync Battle. Cette dernière sera produite par Salvail & Co et diffusée durant la saison 2015-2016 sur les ondes de MusiquePlus et V Télé.

A dust speck is dislodged from its obscure place and sent adrift through the Jungle of Nool. At the same time, Horton the elephant (Jim Carrey), the jungle's eccentric nature teacher, takes a dip in the pool. The dust speck floats past him in the air, and he hears a tiny yelp coming from it. Believing that an entire society of microscopic creatures are living on that speck, he places it atop a clover. Horton finds out the speck harbors the city of Whoville and its inhabitants, the Whos, led by Mayor Ned McDodd (Steve Carell). He has a wife, Sally (Amy Poehler), 96 daughters (whose names all begin with the letter H), and one teenage son named JoJo (Jesse McCartney). Despite being the oldest and next in line for the mayoral position, JoJo doesn't want to be mayor, and because he's so scared of disappointing his father, never speaks. Once Horton begins carrying the speck with him, the city starts experiencing strange phenomena (earthquakes and changes in the weather), and the Mayor finds his attempts to caution Whoville challenged by the Town Council, led by the opportunistic yet condescending Chairman (Dan Fogler).

In a world populated by anthropomorphic vehicles, the last race of the Piston Cup championship ends in a three-way tie between retiring veteran Strip "The King" Weathers, infamous runner-up Chick Hicks, and rookie Lightning McQueen. The tiebreaker race is scheduled for one week later at the (fictional) Los Angeles International Speedway in California. Lightning is desperate to win the race, since it would allow him to leave the unglamorous sponsorship of Rust-Eze, a rust treatment for old cars, and allow him to take The King's place as the sponsored car of the lucrative Dinoco team. Eager to start practice in California as soon as possible, he pushes his big rig, Mack, to travel all night long. While McQueen is sleeping, the exhausted Mack drifts off and is startled by a gang of four reckless street racers, causing McQueen to fall out the back of the trailer and into the road. McQueen wakes in the middle of traffic and speeds off the highway to find Mack, only to end up in the run-down desert town of Radiator Springs, and inadvertently ruining the pavement of its main road.

A month after the events of the first film, General Shang asks Mulan for her hand in marriage and she happily accepts. Hearing about their engagement, Mushu is thrilled for them until the leader of the ancestors informs him that if Mulan gets married he will lose his job as a guardian dragon and have to leave Mulan and his pedestal, which is his place of honor as a guardian. The ancestors are happy with this because Mulan would be getting married to Shang, and would become a part of his family, which would require her to have his family ancestors and guardians. Wanting to keep his job and his friend, Mushu attempts to tear the couple apart, having noticed that they are not very compatible, while Cri-Kee tries to foil his attempts and keep the couple together. Meanwhile, the Emperor calls upon Mulan and General Shang to escort his three daughters, Princesses Mei, Ting-Ting and Su, across China to be betrothed to three princes so that an alliance can be formed with the kingdom of Qui Gong. If the task is not completed within three days, the alliance will crumble, and the Mongols will destroy China.

The film is set in a post-ice age North America, where the local tribesmen believe all creatures are created through the Spirits, who are said to appear in the form of an aurora. Three brothers: Kenai (voiced by Joaquin Phoenix)- the youngest brother, Denahi (voiced by Jason Raize)- the middle brother -and Sitka (voiced by D.B. Sweeney)- the eldest brother, return to their tribe in order for Kenai to receive his sacred totem, a necklace in the shape of an animal. The particular animal it represents symbolizes what he must achieve to call himself a man. Unlike Sitka, who gained the eagle of guidance, and Denahi, who gained the wolf of wisdom, Kenai receives the bear of love, to which he objects, stating that bears are thieves. He believes his point is made a fact when a bear takes some salmon. Kenai and his brothers pursue the bear, but a fight follows on a glacier, during which Sitka gives his life to save his brothers, although the bear survives. Vengeful, Kenai heads out to avenge Sitka. He chases the bear up onto a mountain and kills it. The Spirits, represented by Sitka's spirit in the form of a bald eagle, transform Kenai into a bear after the dead bear's body disappears. Denahi arrives, mistaking Kenai as dead, and believing the bear is responsible, vows to avenge Kenai by hunting it down.

The parallel city of Monstropolis is inhabited by monsters and powered by the screams of children in the human world. At the factory of Monsters, Inc., employees called "scarers" venture into children's bedrooms to scare them and collect their screams, using closet doors as portals. This is considered a dangerous task because the monsters believe children are toxic and that touching them would be fatal. However, production is falling as children are becoming harder to scare and the company's chairman Henry J. Waternoose III is determined to find a solution. The top scarer is James P. "Sulley" Sullivan, who lives with his friend and assistant Mike Wazowski and has a rivalry with the ever-determined chameleon-like monster Randall Boggs. During an ordinary day's work on what is known as the "Scarefloor", another scarer accidentally brings a child's sock into the factory, causing the Child Detection Agency (CDA) to arrive and cleanse him. Mike is frequently ridiculed by the company's clerk Roz for never completing his paperwork on time.
