Pepete can no longer stand on his feet. The dog jumps, jumps, moans, while her owner, Angèle, recalls the day she decided to cut her long blond hair, almost a year and a half ago. The agitation of the little Brabant woman is such that the singer feels obliged to exfiltrate her into another room of the vast loft housing the offices of her companies, to the south of Brussels. Pepete is not the only one to be moved by the story of this transformation: Angèle herself speaks about it with seriousness. “It happens that we cut our hair after a break-up… Symbolically, there was something of that nature for me. »
As if this scissors stroke had laid the foundations for the year she has just experienced, which saw her triumph on August 11 at the closing ceremony of the Paris Olympic Games, for her interpretation of the electro-pop ballad Nightcall, alongside Phoenix and Kavinsky. Boosted by the velvet voice of the Belgian, whose sensual steps, blonde bob and black jumpsuit magnetized the Stade de France, the song immediately established itself as the most sought-after in history on the Shazam platform. Three months after its release as a single, this new version of Nightcall continues to top the international charts.
For Angèle, it was not the only coup of a year during which she multiplied the notable collaborations, with the singers Damso, Gazo and Tiakola, Mahmood or Charlotte Cardin on the music side, with the brands Chanel, Courrèges or Coperni fashion side. Through her impromptu associations, on record or on stage, as well as through her astonishing outfits, revealed on the sidelines of fashion shows or on social networks, the 29-year-old young woman has crossed 2024 as a confident icon of her art and her power of attraction. .
