While Thierry Ardisson plans this Monday, May 2 to resuscitate Dalida in his show “Hotel of time”on France 3, in Montmartre, the fans of the one that the man in black considers as “the greatest singer of the 20th century” are already in the starting blocks. This weekend, they massed in numbers Division 18, chemin des Gardes, in the southern part of the historic cemetery of the 18th arrondissement, on the avenue Rachel side, as reported the Parisian.
“It is the most visited grave after that of Michel Berger”.
Our colleagues followed a group of fans who sang “toddler”, in front of the star’s tombstone. On site, the cemetery staff are used to it. They also explain on a daily basis that in the cemetery of Montmartre, “it is the most visited tomb after that of Michel Berger”.

This Monday evening, she will also give a somewhat special interview to Thierry Ardisson, with the agreement of Orlando, who is fighting to ensure that Dalida is still alive. “If Orlando had told me no, we wouldn’t have done it“says the host, who had met “the star, the diva“in flesh and bone, in 1982. “I had spent the afternoon at her house, in Montmartre. She was sublime and she had told me things she had never said before, in particular about her suicide attempt…” he told the Parisian.
