Aya Nakamura is expected to perform Edith Piaf at the opening of the Paris Olympic Games. Record company boss Alain Veille issued a message on social networks assuring that for five years she has been the most listened to French female artist in the world.

Contrary to what we sometimes hear, she is not the most appreciated French-speaking singer on the planet. Céline Dion is above her - but we can affirm the figures to support that Aya Nakimura is indeed the French which exports the best.
