Between the NRJ Music Awards and the Victoires de la Musique, there are Sacem Grand Prizes ! On December 6, 2021, the Society of Authors, Composers and Music Publishers (Sacem) presented its awards of the year at a ceremony organized in Neuilly-sur-Seine. The opportunity for Catherine Ringer to reappear after her disturbing discomfort …
Smiling and visibly in good shape, the interpreter of Rita Mitsouko notably awarded his Audiovisual Writer-Director Grand Prize to Philippe Gautier. The 64-year-old artist was also able to meet Barbara Pravi (the Eurovision finalist, awarded for her title Here is), M. Pokora (left with the SDRM Grand Prix for the song Grave), Slimane, Lous and the Yakuza, composer Renaud Rebillaud or Youssoupha.
This appearance of Catherine Ringer should reassure her fans as we had left her in bad shape … On November 25, while she was performing on the stage of the Forum in Liège, in Belgium, the artist had made a patient in the early evening and had collapsed in front of her team and the audience. Getting up as best she could after a few seconds, encouraged by the applause of the spectators, she had sobs: “I can’t sing“. Fred Chichin’s ex-companion was then escorted to her dressing room by her team and the concert was canceled.
Last summer already, the interpreter of Marcia Baïla had been forced to cancel several dates after contracting the coronavirus. Despite everything, it is in good shape that she had performed on the stage of the AccorHotels Arena for the tribute concert to Johnny Hallyday.
