France has only one name in the mouth, that of Louane. In a few days, the star singer will represent France at Eurovision with her title “Maman”. Dedicated to his mother and daughter, he allows the 28 -year -old artist to come back to his origins.
All eyes are riveted on Louane. The 28 -year -old young woman is preparing to represent France at the 69th Eurovision competition, this Saturday, May 17, live from Basel in Switzerland. For this, she will interpret an extremely moving title entitled Mom. And she hopes to do even better than Slimane and her beautiful 4th place last year.
Louane grew up in a large family in the North: “It was quite messy”
This song by Louane is an ode to the love of her family whom she dedicated to her mother Isabel, who died in 2014 at the age of 50 after a long fight against cancer; At that time, the singer was only 17 years old. It is also, in passing, a tribute to his own daughter, Esmée, born of his loves with his fiancé, the artist Florian Rossi, alias P3gase.
Very attached to his clan, Louane – whose dad died a year before his mother – however only speaks very little publicly. In February 2015, she had agreed to describe her family and her northern origins to our colleagues from The Sunday Tribune : “I grew up in Hénin-Beaumont. I only knew one house. It is a building of corons as we find in the North (…) Neither too large nor too small, normal, what! My friends call her the house of happiness. We were six children. It was quite messy. There were always people. “
What are the origins of Louane? “”It will allow me to learn more about my familye”
Louane will therefore wear the tricolor colors in the Eurovision competition and hopes to bring the cup back to the house after Marie Myriam’s ultimate victory. The singer is a beautiful mixture of various origins and she assumes it. “My mother was born in Portugal to a Brazilian mother and a Portuguese father. My father was born in France to a Polish mother and a German father. I feel very French, but I remain very curious from where I come from”she had entrusted to The Sunday Tribune. Before making known: “In Portugal, I still have family; I sometimes go there. I also went to Germany.”
Questioned in 2023 on RFM waves about her little interest in reggaeton, Louane had provided a response that said a lot about what family origins are more present in her DNA. “However, I am half Portuguese Brazilian, my mother is Brazilian Portuguese and my father is Polish and German and obviously I found myself on the side of my father”she replied with humor.
