Sylvie Vartan, essential icon of the yéyé years, has decided to bow out and bid farewell to the public after more than six decades on stage. For these farewell concerts planned for November 2024 and January 2025, she wanted to surround herself with artist friends for memorable duets. But one of them, and not the least, declined the invitation.
Sylvie Vartan's disappointment in the face of Michel Sardou's refusal
Interviewed by Le Point magazine on October 31, 2024, Sylvie Vartan expressed her disappointment at the decision of her friend Michel Sardou not to accompany her on stage for her farewells. “I wanted him to come sing with me, but he refused. He exaggerates, especially since our song is very pretty. But I wasn't going to harass him!“, confided the 80-year-old singer, visibly touched by this refusal which she struggles to understand.
This “no” from Michel Sardou is all the more difficult to accept as it comes at a pivotal moment, loaded with meaning and emotion for Sylvie Vartan. The artist would undoubtedly have liked to share these precious moments with the man she considers a close friend. A duet with Michel Sardou would have had a very special flavor in this farewell context.
Prestigious guests and the unwavering support of his fans
If Michel Sardou declined the invitation, other renowned artists responded to share the stage with Sylvie Vartan for a duet. This is particularly the case of Etienne Daho who will perform with her the title “When you are there“, a song that they had already covered together in the past. These prestigious guests will undoubtedly be a great gift for the public.
And then, Sylvie Vartan knows that she will be able to count on the unwavering support of her fans, always there since her beginnings. There is no doubt that they will be there, more numerous than ever, to accompany him with fervor and emotion during these final performances. Their love and their presence will be more than enough to fill her and make her goodbyes an unforgettable moment.
