Thus, in recent days, Patrick Bruel, Lara Fabian or even Slimane have all written messages of condolence to him, while fans have shared extracts from the shows where they had collaborated.

Two years after the premiere of his musical at the Palais des sports in Paris, and crowned with glory by a tour through France, Daniel Lévi had been invited on stage to cross the microphone with the diva.
