Vanessa Paradis
Many know Vanessa as a fine actrice, others as the former representative of Chanel’s fragrance Coco, and still others as Mrs. Johnny Depp, although they’re not married. Rumour has it that after being together since 1998, they will be tying the knot soon.
Vanessa, however, to many, including myself, is still the young girl who came onto the music scene singing Joe le Taxi. She was only 14 years old when she hit the top of the charts back in 1987 with Etienne Roda-Gil’s song, and it was impossible to turn on the radio or television back then without hearing or seeing Vanessa singing that song!
After a number of years out of the public eye artistically, Vanessa will be appearing in concert throughout France this autumn and at the Zenith in Paris in November for three nights only; the 13th, 14th, and 15th. So why am I speaking about it now? Because this long awaited return to the concert stage already has people purchasing tickets for the event! Her new album Divine Idylle just came out this past June.
