doesn’t have his tongue in his pocket. Ready to do anything to defend the causes that are close to her heart, the singer does not hesitate to use great means. In 2006, it was on the set of Everybody talks about itshow hosted by Thierry Ardisson, that she was out of control regarding the affair Bertrand Cantat.
“To say that Mary was responsible for his death, that it was passion and love that killed him, no. Love does not bring death or that is an error”she lost her temper in front of the novelist Muriel Cerf. A position which obviously cost him dearly.

“Paris closes its doors to you”
In a recent interview given to our colleagues at Ciné Télé Revuethe now 61-year-old artist has agreed to return to this clash. “What I see is that I was sidelined from the professionI no longer had a contract after speaking out for Marie (Trintignant, killed more than 20 years ago at the hands of Bertrand Cantat, editor’s note). I had nothing left, I ate the earth, it was very hard, I was downgraded. So I know what downgrading is, that’s why I understand the Yellow Vests, the drags…”she explained before providing some clarifications to the word “downgraded”.
“Paris closes its doors to you. Contracts no longer come, you no longer have a record company, you are left to your own devices, no tour manager wants to take you on tour anymore except for a Z series, it’s that is to say popular fairs etc. But I did them. I did my classes in reverse starting at 16 with a huge success (Banana Split) which gave me enormous power and which I now use it better. But I moved from class A to class Z. That is to say that they no longer lend you clothes in Cannes, that you are no longer invited anywhere, that you no longer do well-paid galas but fairs between a pancake turner and Chirac who touches the cow’s ass. But I like it!” Upsetting confidences.
