Camille Cottin is surely the “Bitch” the best known in France but she is undoubtedly the most talented too. The 43-year-old actress has come a long way since her first steps on the small screen. Supporting roles followed until the consecration in series Ten percent, exported abroad, in which she plays Andrea, one of ASK’s agents with a strong character. Since then, we have not stopped Camille Cottin. The actress has played with the greatest, in France and abroad. She opposite Lady Gaga in House of Gucci and Matt Damon in Stillwaterrecently giving him access to the MET Gala, one of the most prestigious events across the Atlantic.
But Camille Cottin kept her feet on the ground. This Monday, May 9, she was the guest of C to you for Valiant Hearts, his next film, French this one, directed by Mona Achache. The opportunity for Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine to come back to the wonderful international opportunities that Camille Cottin has won, thanks to her impeccable English, far from being a coincidence.
His desires for comedy, Camille Cottin realized them with the support of his parents who had however set a condition: that of studying. The star of Ten percent therefore took a master’s degree in English, leading her to hold a position as an English teacher for a while. But in the matter, she was, according to her words, far from shining as much as on the film sets: “As I was quite young and not very legit, I couldn’t quite say ‘I don’t know’ when [les élèves] asked me for a word so I happened to invent one so as not to lose face.”
One of them once asked him how “plastic surgery” said to herself in English. A question to which she did not have the answer. So to pretend that nothing had happened, Camille Cottin called on her imagination to try to produce a set of inaudible but believable sounds. Not without slight embarrassment:As I had a small conscience, in the evening I checked, so the next day I called the student I said ‘What I told you is rather American and in English it is ‘plastic surgery’ .“
The anecdote made the team smile C to you and Camille Cottin the first. If she received the congratulations of Anne-Elisabeth Lemoine for this course in national education, the mother of Anna and Léon nuanced the compliments and directed them as accurately as possible: “I don’t know if they learned English very honestly. But in any case, I kept them well! I have a lot of respect for national education and for teachers. It’s a beautiful job and not everyone can do it.“Despite everything, we are certain that Camille Cottin remains number 1 in the hearts of his former students.
