Mylene farmer biography livre photo

Mylène Farmer was born in Pierrefonds, Québec, Canada as Mylène Jeanne Gautier. She moved to France with her family in early 1970s, in Chaville. Later, after quitting high school, she studied theater at the Le Cours Florent school in Paris to pursue a career as a film actress but became a singer instead. Her breakout song was "Libertine" (1986) which became a hit due in large part to the accompanying music video which was shot as a short film set in 18th century France. She has been one of the bestselling musical artists in France since the 1980's. She is known for her work on Giorgino 1994), Arthur and the Invisibles (2006), Incident in a Ghostland (2018), numerous music videos, and spectacular live performances.

Farmer has had a longstanding love of cinema, and her songs and live shows often draw inspiration from feature films such as "Elephant Man" and "Blade Runner". She chose her stage name as a tribute to an American actress, Frances Farmer

There are plenty of rooms!”. We’ve only really known each other for three weeks! Spending a month together seems a bit early to me. For me, it’s the best way to get angry. I therefore decline the invitation. At the same time, I really want to go there! Mylène insists, telling me that I don’t have to stay the whole month. I have a Niagara feature scheduled in Holland anyway.

But I managed to follow up with a subject on Francis Lalanne at the very beginning of August in Saint Tropez, not far from La Ga
