Anggun opens up about his relationship with Florent Pagny

In an interview given to Melty, Anggun returned to the beautiful relationship she has with singer Florent Pagny. The opportunity for her to make a beautiful statement to the one who has just won his battle against cancer.

It has been more than twenty-five years since Florent Pagny and Anggun are friends. Passing through Isabelle Morizet’s show on Europe 1 last May, she returned to their improbable meeting thanks to the uncle of her neighbor at the time, “an electrician who once helped out Florent Pagny“. Since the two artists are never far from each other. And when Anggun learned that he was suffering from cancer – which he fortunately defeated a few months later – she did not hesitate to check in regularly. “He has morale and he is really carried by the love of the French“, she confided last July. We have also recently been able to see Florent Pagny very smiling alongside Kendji Girac in Patagonia.

Anggun is very admiring of Florent Pagny

In an interview with our colleagues from Melty on YoutubeAnggun feels lucky to have crossed paths with the singer. “It was he who held out his hand to me“, she recalls. Very admiring, she explains that he has become “a mentor” for her and this, long before he became a coach in The Voice : “He was the one who actually started me, who introduced me to his team at the time, which had become mine and I watched him work“. Anggun, who has long dreamed of seeing his career take off, did not fail to scrutinize his every move.”I watched him do concerts, do interviews, I watched how he was with his fans. I learned a lot from him.“

“He is someone who is very dear to my heart“

Unfortunately, the events of life have made thatAnggun and his “mentor” have moved away somewhat. “He had gone to Patagonia because Azucena, his wife, was very pregnant. And then after, we haven’t seen each other at all“, regrets the former member of the jury of Mask Singer. The only times they could see each other were when he was traveling to France for work. “We saw each other just like that, when he came to promote his albums“. But no matter the distance that has settled between them: “He is someone who is very dear to my heart“concludes the artist from Indonesia.
