Jakie Quartz, 66

Another successful singer who made millions of French people dance in the 80s! Jakie Quartz made a name for herself with her 1983 hit “Mise au point”. The sublime singer sold almost a million copies. She tried to make a comeback in 2003, but failed, and “Mise au point” remained her only hit. In the 2010s, the singer hit rock bottom, becoming dependent on alcohol and antidepressants. In 2015, her song “Mise à l’épreuve” testifies to her love for her mother and her regrets. But she managed to get back on track. Today, she remains as beautiful and ambitious as ever
