He sang on the biggest stages in France, met the greatest musicians in the world and released cult songs: it’s hard not to recognize that Louis Bertignac’s career is immense. The singer and musician, who started in the Telephone group then continued solo, has also decided to tell the best moments in an autobiography, Nice little storywhich will be released on April 28.
The best moments… and the worst! Rocker in the 80s, Louis Bertignac has indeed touched a lot of drugs, as he tells this week at Tele-Leisure. From the age of 17, he would have tasted “to all the drugs“, especially after his meeting with the Rolling Stones. The British group, made up of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ron Wood, among others, were indeed regular and notorious consumers of many substances.
One day, while they were recording in Paris, Louis Bertignac got closer to Ron Wood, precisely, of whom he still has good memories: “We had a friend who was also our common dealer!“, he says with a smile. If these years are far behind him, he has now become a father and has already broached these subjects with his eldest daughters, Lola, 17 years old and Lili, 14 years old.
Also the father of Jack, 5 years old, born of his current marriage with Laetitia, he warned his two teenage daughters: out of the question to follow in his footsteps. “My daughters know, I discouraged them from taking dope, I know about it and I will be able to read pupils if they take drugs“, he says. The two young girls, very discreet, have been warned!
Happy in his life, Louis Bertignac has created a beautiful blended family with his wife Laëtitia, his little Jack and his two eldest daughters. His wife, very active on Instagram, also likes to share the adorable nonsense of the youngest of the family and the photos of their important moments.
On the professional side, if Louis Bertignac has nothing planned in the coming weeks, he could surprise his fans with a surprise live concert, as he did a lot during confinement with his friend Jean-Louis Aubert!
