For over 60 years, Nicole Croisille has been living her passion. But her beginnings were difficult because of her father, who forced her to give up her dream job…
At 87, Nicole Croisille is still as active as ever! The leading singer of the 60s with the titles Call me, a woman with you Or I need you has not stopped for a second of her life traveling, meeting personalities ranging from Joséphine Baker to Claude Lelouch and working as a dancer and singer. In 2018, it is in a surprising comedy, Hard, on the subject of pornography, that she challenged herself. If she has a free spirit today, she was bullied for a long time in her youth. The daughter of a pianist mother and a father who was the director of a tourism agency almost didn’t have her dream life…
“He didn’t really want to…”: what did his father forbid him?
In an interview with Claire Chazal on France 5, Nicole Croisille confided in the years during which her dreams almost went up in smoke. Her father did not want to see her become a dancer. However, from a young age, she was passionate about dancing.
“I believe, said my mother, who always told me that from the age of 3 in the living room I was already in a trance dancing,” she confided. Determined, despite her father’s disagreement, to become a little opera rat, she turned to theater, attended classes at the Comédie Française and was even able to join the company’s ballet. The rest is history: Nicole Croisille was never a little opera rat, but she shone as a singer and actress, without abandoning her passion for dance.
What is happening to Nicole Croisille?
After a health problem in 2009, including a knee operation, due to her past as a dancer, Nicole Croisille had to give up practicing this discipline. “Over the years, dancing has become an inaccessible dream.” she confided.
If his body takes stock of his skills, his head still gives him the motivation to never stop. In an interview with Evening Mag Last February, she said she was working on new projects, “I have theater projects and I’m working with David Hadzis on the technical cleaning of other albums.”
