On January 25, he very publicly announced that he had “in warrior mode” to face lung cancer. Florent Pagny, 61, has not canceled his participation in the show The Voice, for season 11, which he won with Nour and during which he was undergoing his chemotherapy sessions. Now that he is in remission, and awaiting the results of his PET scan to confirm it, the singer of “Know how to love” don’t lift your foot.
His return to television
According to our colleagues from Closer, the star of the song was contacted by the production of the tele-hook to re-participate in the show this winter. He would take the role of mystery coach, the same one that Nolwenn Leroy occupied this year.

Pending confirmation of this information, Closer adds that Florent Pagny is going to spend the end-of-year celebrations at his home in Argentina, in the company of Azucena Caamaño (artist painter and former Argentinian model), his wife. For Christmas and New Year’s Day, they will be in Patagonia with their daughter, Ael, 23, their son, Inca, 26, as well as Odile and Jean, 86, his parents who live in Burgundy and Marie- Pascal Giunta, his sister.
A busy 2023
In mid-May, in the columns of Gala, he had assured that he would not retire, despite his health problems. Florent Pagny intended to plump up before coming back stronger. He then said:I’ll see how I breathe because I haven’t sung for a while. But, as long as my voice is there, I am there! I won’t give up! And I’ll finish my tour after I’ve gotten back together!”
Next summer, the ex-companion of Vanessa Paradis has therefore planned to sing at festivals, since he would still be too short of breath to officiate solo on stage, the time of a full concert. He will thus be in Nîmes on June 30, in Bayonne on July 21, and in Colmar on July 30. A sacred courage, and a resilience that will inspire more than one.
