For 30 years now, Florent Pagny has been making perfect love with his wife Azucena Caamano, a 55-year-old South American painter. It was in 1992 that the singer met him, when he was at his worst.

By his side, he was therefore able to afford a new start. “One day, we’re in the car, and she tells me ‘why does everyone say you’re dead? That you are finished?’. That’s what happened to me, I had three years of celebrities, I sold a few records but then I sold more. And we didn’t talk about me anymore because I was planted by my girlfriend than anything else. And at the same time, nobody knew the capacity that I could have to come back“, remembered the singer who ended up proposing”a deal“to his half.”‘Come on, let’s stay together and try to see if we can go up the slope together. And we pulled it off pretty well“, did he declare.
