The long -awaited moment has finally arrived: this Saturday, Louane will fervently represent France at Eurovision by interpreting its title “Maman”. But did you know that his vocation for music could have never been born? We explain to you.
The pressure has risen for the French delegation of Eurovision, already in Switzerland for a few days. It must be said that the time has finally arrived. This Saturday, May 17, Louane will interpret her title Mom In front of the cameras around the world with a single goal in mind: that France won the competition, 48 years after the victory of Marie Myriam and her title Bird and child.
Who is “Momo”the woman to whom Louane owes her career?
And if the whole hexagon is behind the 28 -year -old singer, her story with music could have never seen the light of day. Besides, it was born without the young woman really realizing it. “My parents were brokers in insurance. As they worked internationally, they were often absent from the house. I spent my days with the nanny”she had explained to Sunday newspaper in February 2015.
And her to detail: “She was named Monique but, we called her Momo. She wanted to be a singer. She was her dream. We often sang together. She thought I had something. One day, she decided to register for a singing competition. I was 8 years old. She put my mother in front of the fait”.
This is how the young Louane, then aged eight, participated in this competition organized in Saint-Amand-les-Eaux. “We went there, I got out fifth. It scared me, but I loved it”she said. Before specifying: “Then, I took lessons and participated in other competitions to The Voice. After that, my mother got on the piano (…) My father only knew two agreements on the guitar, but it was a big music lover …”
Can Louane win Eurovision? “She has the art of passing between drops”
Will the pretty story hoist Louane at the top of the ranking this Saturday, May 17? The future will tell us. Anyway, the famous casting director Bruno Berbers believes in it. “I don’t know why, I feel a possible victory”he told our colleagues TV Mag. “Louane has a destiny. Since her inception, she has had the art of passing between drops”he completed.
The one to whom we owe The Voice met the one who, in the city, is Anne Peichert, when she was twelve years old. It was in 2009 and the girl participated in the telecrochet Stars school On C8: “I met his mother, Isabel, who then regularly sent me videos of her daughter so that I can see her progress”. Again, the story is beautiful!
