If she continues to be regularly nominated at the NRJ Music Awards, Mylène Farmer is conspicuous by her absence at the Victoires de la Musique ceremonies. But like Mr. Pokora, Bénabar and Benjamin Biolay, the most prolific French singer in history has completely boycotted this ceremony since 2001. Recipient of three Victories that she obtained between 1988 and 2005 (she declined the third Victory received and refused to go to the ceremony), Mylène Farmer ordered the organizers to no longer select her and win for a very simple reason, which she explain Max Guazzini on the set of Pascale de la Tour du Pin this Monday October 23, 2023 on C8.
Guest of PAFthe businessman, who led NRJ for a long time and therefore, de factothe NRJ Music Awards ceremony, revealed that Mylène Farmer hated this ceremonyon the grounds that she gave pride of place to musical personalities totally unknown to the general public, to the great dismay of those, like her, who sell hundreds of thousands of records each year: “The people who make the Victoires de la Musique don’t really like success. Often, we don’t even know the people who win. Where are they going to get them? I believe that the profession, unlike the public, perhaps does not appreciate it at its true value.” condemned the man who was also vice-president of the National Rugby League, and president of the Stade français Paris Rugby.
She does not boycott the NMA
In 2005, Mylène Farmer fiercely refused to go to the Victoires de la Musique, where an honorary award celebrating his career awaited him, with Jean-Jacques Goldman, who also declined the invitation. That evening, Nagui, host of the ceremony, who for many years has regularly teased the singer, had violently clashed with her by covering one of her last hits of the time Fuck them all, which can be translated as “Let them all go to hell.”. The singer has, however, honored many of her awards at the NRJ Music Awards, and is one of the most awarded artists with nine trophies to her credit, tied with Jenifer. Ed Sheeran is second with ten trophies, and Matt Pokora far ahead with 15 victories!
