This Saturday, April 22, Camille Lou was the guest of Telematin. The opportunity for the young woman to look back on her beginnings and on this reflection which almost made her miss out on her acting career.
Camille Lou has several strings to her bow. In addition to being a singer, the young woman is also an actress. The public could see her in several TF1 series like The Fighters, Prometheus or I promise you. On April 26, the beautiful brunette will be back in cinemas since she shares the poster with Ahmed Sylla from the comedy Our tiny little wedding. On this occasion, the companion of Romain Laulhé came on the set of Telematin to promote the film.
Marie-Claude Pietragalla at the beginning of her career as an actress
With a singer and guitarist dad, Camille Lou was quickly immersed in music like her sisters. Very early on, she was introduced to various instruments including the violin and the piano, and to singing. “I sang from a very young age. I’ve been taking singing lessons since I was eight. I actually started like that.” she explained to Damien Thévenot. During his participation in Dancing with the stars 7, the artist has a revelation after a remark by Marie-Claude Pietragalla. “One day she said this to me: ‘I see an actress dancing’“, she recalled. Before adding:I have always dreamed of being an actress. But I really didn’t allow myself“.

“You will never be an actress”
But if Camille Lou had a hard time getting started, it was mainly because of a little phrase that resonated in her head for a long time. “I had a director who told me ‘you look too much like to I don’t know which actress. ‘You will never be an actress, there are too many like you‘” she said. This remark hurt her a lot at the time: “It hurt me a little, I believed everything I was told, I was extremely naive“. However, her participation in the famous TF1 dance competition allowed her to put this blockage aside and take the plunge. “It triggered” like a click in her, as she pointed out on the set of Telematin. Perhaps without Marie-Claude Pietragalla, Camille Lou would have missed out on a lot of things since her CV as an actress is now well filled. And it’s far from over!
