Two years previously, health problems had prevented her from going on stage. But Mimie Mathy is getting better and she has thus regained her place. Small adjustments were, however, organized to spare her. Indeed, as we discover via the Instagram account ofArnaud Toupense (seen in the film A little something extra) who posted photos and videos from the evening of Sunday January 19, the star of Joséphine, guardian angel was moving in a wheelchair behind the scenes of the concert.
