One of the most popular French recording artists in history, she released over a dozen chart-topping hits, including "Libertine," "Les Mots," and "C'est Une Belle Journee." In the mid-1980s, she began her long-lasting collaboration with songwriter Laurent Boutonnat. She first rose to fame following the release of several controversial music videos, including "Maman a Tort" (which, ahead of its time, depicted a same-sex attraction) and "Libertine" (which was the first music video in history to include fully nude images of its lead singer).
