The unforgettable performer of "And God ... created woman", Brigitte Bardot, paid tribute on Tuesday to Jean-Paul Belmondo, who died Monday at the age of 88.
She lets it be known that she "thinks of him" and is in "sorrow".
“I have a great sorrow like his dog Chipie who was his last and so faithful companion.
I think of him, I loved him.
I miss him and I no longer want to talk about it, the great pains are silent, ”she wrote in a press release.

The two emblematic actors of French cinema have shared the poster on several occasions, as in "Famous Love" (1961) by Michel Boisrond.
They had, over the years, become close.
In 2012, Bébel even adopted his dog “Chipie” from the Bardot Animal Defense Foundation.
The animal, a black, white and fawn cross shepherd, had been abandoned by its previous owners.
The interpreter with 80 films died Monday at midday, in Paris.
A national tribute will be paid to him on Thursday at the Invalides.
