Having fought cancer for several years, Florent Pagny has been silent for several months. If he did not hesitate to give news of his state of health, the one who will make his comeback on The Voice in 2025, agreed to break the silence for a very particular reason.
Indeed, according to our colleagues at Parisianwho were able to question the singer, the latter will release a song in support of the environmentalist Paul Watson, imprisoned in Greenland. “The cause is good, the guy is in a trap,” he confides. “If with my little voice I can be useful, I do it. I rarely get involved, because I am not an activist, I don’t do politics,” confirms the singer.
Florent Pagny gives updates on his state of health
On the occasion of this interview, Florent Pagny also gave news about his state of health.
“It’s not for nothing that we call it the crab, it sticks. But it’s okay,” indicates one who has been subject to numerous relapses of his cancer. Thus, the artist still says he is ready to return to the forefront for this project.
He should be accompanied by several other singers like
Anne Sila, Arielle Dombasle, David Hallyday, Manu Lanvin, Fabienne Thibeault, Yannick Noah, Véronique Sanson, and the Tryo group. “We recorded a Japanese version to disseminate it to the public there” confides Me Emmanuel Ludot, lawyer.
A song for an ecological fight
However, Florent Pagny is much less enthusiastic about the idea that this project comes from the origin of the idea of Francis Lalanne, who went to Greenland. “I never subscribed to his delusions. But I’ve known him for 35 years and when he sends me this song, I ignore all that”says the singer.
What matters to him is helping Paul Watson. “This guy has been fighting to defend whales since the 1970s. If we don’t do something about him, humanity will have problems.” Regarding the fight that the ecologist has waged all his life, Florent Pagny concludes: “Frankly, I have the same feeling when you put a bullet in a doe, a peaceful animal. I can wear python or crocodile jackets but these, if they come across a human, not sure it will go too well for him”.
