PORTRAIT - Her duet with Grand Corps Malade was only a prelude and the actress and comedian surprises with a first album without filter.


When she sits down at the piano, we are far from her one-woman show with the repartees that allow you to dodge.

"" With music, I remove my modesty, I sing about my ailments

.

Music is the only time I am vulnerable, there is no barrier, no shell, ”

says Camille Lellouche met by AFP.

“I don't know how to lie, in general, and I don't lie in song, that's where I'm least protected

,” she continues.

In humor, you can create a character, hide;

music is my means of expression, my outlet, it saves me on a daily basis, from my neuroses, my anxieties, my traumas ”

Do not insist

lifts the veil on the domestic violence of which she was victim when younger.

We hear

"Do not insist I trust more / I can no longer forgive you / I have suffered too much / And your violence has ended up breaking me"

.

The French artist no longer wants to dwell on this painful past. She delivered the chilling detail in "Seven to Eight" on TF1, between grip, threats and blows received. Music allows her to heal her

"wounds"

, she told AFP today. His album, between ballads and r'n'b, is called

"A"

, as if to open a new chapter. Or rather start the story from the beginning. Those who remember will remember that in 2015 she went through "The Voice", a televised musical springboard, before launching her one-woman show. Music and her is a long story.

"I have been playing the piano since the age of 4, then quickly, I liked singing, it came quite naturally"

, she unrolls. In her family, she is the only one to play an instrument. Even if the artistic fiber was not absent from the environment of the girl who grew up in Vitry-sur-Seine (Paris region).

“My mother was part of a choir, my father drew, my grandfather drew and painted very well”

.

As a child, she was marked by singers like

"

Celine Dion

, Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston"

, before the boxes

"Beyoncé, Jessie J"

then

"Nina Simone, Jill Scott or Kierra Sheard who makes gospel with her mother"

. Among the French, she cites William Sheller, Michel Jonasz or Michel Delpech, among others.

But why did she not take advantage of the media exposure of "The Voice" to release her first album six years ago?

“I had proposals but I was writing a one-woman show where I could sing, dance, stand-up, make people laugh and cry, I gave my word to someone who believed in me for that, whereas it had never happened before ”

.

The time of the lean cows is evoked in the piece

Parle encore

.

"I was not close to a few years for this album"

.

She finds the light with the music in the summer of 2020 with the tube

But I love you

which appears on the album of duets of Grand Corps Malade

Mesdames

.

“It's a song to her, she played the melody, had already written her part.

And there, I said: "wow, I want to do this song with you"

", explained the singer at the time to AFP.

"I know her well, she's a friend, she has that in her, she has an incredible voice, she captures you, she has this little crack"

, he added again.

It was already a piece of therapy, as she explains.

“I was with someone, I couldn't communicate with that person and I was like in that song 'I can't give you more than that'”.

What can we expect now for the transposition of “A” on stage?

"It will not be a one-woman show, it will be very music-music, even if, as it is not a very happy album, I will not be able to prevent myself from '' winnowing '' two or three people for make them breathe and laugh a bit ”
