80 years is worth celebrating. And Dave chose to do this new milestone surrounded by all his friends and his audience. It was in reality he who gave a great gift to the people he loved by organizing a concert at the Grand Rex, in Paris, on May 21, 2024. Behind the scenes, he was able to count on Marc-Olivier Fogiel and his adorable daughters Mila and Lily (born in 2011 and 2013 to a surrogate mother as part of a surrogacy in the United States). He also revealed a rare photo of his wonders on X, the day after the show.
It’s a birthday Dave will remember. He had the pleasure of blowing out his 80 candles on the legendary stage of the Grand Rex, in front of the public he loves so much as well as some of his loved ones. The singer – who fell heavily in his Parisian apartment in January 2022, an accident from which he has lasting effects – was able to count on the presence of Agnès Jaoui, Nicoletta and her husband Jean-Christophe Molinier, Mireille Dumas and even Stone and his husband Mario d’Alba.
Dave well looked after for his 80th birthday
His long-time friends Sylvie Testud and Marc-Olivier Fogiel were also invited and brought him his cake on stage. A place of choice. It must be said that the general director of BFMTV and the artist are very close. As proof, Dave is the godfather of Mila, one of the daughters of Marc-O and her discreet husband François Roelants.
The singer did not fail to take a photo backstage with his goddaughter and Lily. He can be seen sitting on a sofa, taking the two little girls (whose faces are hidden by a heart emoji) by the shoulders. The opportunity to see that Mila has grown up.
“Thank you godfather! great concert for your 80th birthday“, we can read in the caption of the tender photo.
Some people may not know this, but Dave released a song about same-sex parenting called The Girl with Two Dads. An obvious tribute to his friend’s family. “Every day, she awakens to life and she sees so much love around her that she does not hear the voices in the street protesting, calling for battle. The slogans which raise a strange debate on the right to live or not, for an outlaw child. (…) She smiles, look at her, she’s the girl with two dads, as they say“, he sings.
