In the artistic world, Florent Pagny has made many friends. This is the case of Patrick Bruel, Patrick Fiori and Pascal Obispo. All of them have also been very present to support him in his fight against illness. On the other hand, when Florent Pagny is on bad terms with someone, he does not hesitate to let it be known, like this time when he mentioned his clash with Thierry Ardisson which was never broadcast on television.
How is Florent Pagny’s health?
Last September, Florent Pagny spoke about his state of health. In the podcast Addiction from France Télévisions, he declared: “My health is fine. When you are affected by this disease that we call crab because it sticks, it keeps coming back, even if for a while the treatments do their job well, it has a tendency to come back. For me, she came back twice after the first, so that's three times. We are looking at a three-month outlook. When she moved away, we did the checks, we found nothing, it's stable, we still have an appointment in three months. And every three months, you come to see if you are not going back in one direction, or if you can continue in a free life. It's a bit special. So health is good… But with a perspective of three months for two years.”
The 63-year-old singer then continued: “There is no more treatment there. Even immunotherapy. We realized one day that it wasn't working, there were relapses, we gave up. Lately I have been supported more by Chinese medicine, and it is the one that gives me the most satisfaction for all that there may be alongside and because of the treatments. Since they are plants, it's not bad. I found a good doctor, he gives me the right treatment and he manages any developments that may occur.”
Florent Pagny and Jenifer met in the Star
Academy
Among the celebrities who are part of Florent Pagny's friendly circle, there is Jenifer. Together, they also collaborated on the show The Voice where they were both coaches. In 2023, Florent Pagny even suggested that Jenifer sing
I promise you in duet with him on his album 2Bisin tribute to Johnny Hallyday.
Pour 7 Days TVthe one who was annoyed by Yann Barthès explained: “I couldn't not pay tribute to my friend, the 'Taulier'. It was impossible for me. I had seen that Jenifer had sung it with him. Jen, I did his TV premiere. I was the godfather of the first Star Academy Ten years later, we found ourselves on The Voice, both as coaches. We spent several years together. Great memories. This song was therefore a tribute to Johnny but also a nod to the lovely story with Jenifer.”
The singer confides in his friendship with Jenifer
Asked by Tele-Leisure about this friendship, the singer confided: “We've known each other for twenty years. I think we're not very complicated personalities to manage. I like simple and natural people, that's all she is. Under her glamorous bimbo exterior, she is a tomboy! She’s pretty to look at and she’s fun to be around.”
For her part, Jenifer added: “I love Florent because there is only one like him. At the time of Star Ac, I admired his outspokenness. He was a role model for me, someone who didn't mince his words. In addition to the singer, I had great admiration for the man. With The Voice, I discovered his sensitivity.”
