Nathalie Baye & France Gall • Sketch Les Choristes [1986-11-12]

Thoughts for Nathalie Baye... In November 1986, France Gall and Nathalie Baye, friends in real life, participated in a short skit in which they both played backing singers for the recording of a new song by Michel Berger. Two backing singers more inclined to concern themselves with their personal lives or celebrity gossip than with their artistic mission for the day, much to the astonishment of Michel Berger. At the mixing console, we can recognize Jean-Pierre Janiaud, a sound engineer who played a crucial role in the work of the Berger-Gall duo. This short segment served as an introduction to the show "Embarquement Immédiat" (Immediate Boarding), presented by Maritie and Gilbert Carpentier, broadcast on FR3, during an episode in which Michel Berger was the featured guest. A charming little television moment, directed by André Flederick, which illustrates the close bond between France Gall and Nathalie Baye. It was their friendship that led to the artistic and personal connection between their husbands and partners, Michel Berger and Johnny Hallyday, in the 1980s. And a bond of affection that will always endure.
