Between 2001 and 2004, Lorie was on top of the world. The singer, a failed figure skater, is the new idol of young people. With a female audience,
Laure Pesterhis real name, puts the tricolor pop at his feet in two albums and a handful of singles. Sort of Britney Spears in the French way, she experienced a certain crossing the desert
after success. In an interview, she talks about her fame, the life of an artist and her schizophrenic relationship with fame.
Lorie: the singer has a string of successes
Lorie became known at just 19 years old.
We are in 2001, the young singer releases her first official single, Near me. It's a real hit:
600,000 sales. The song foreshadows the album entitled Near you. The latter reveals two more
tubes to resounding success, I would be (your best friend) et All alone. Lorie enters orbit!
But this is only the beginning. She had a string of successes over the next four years. As evidenced by his second and third opus, Tenderly Then
Attitudes. Lorie becomes the candy pink muse of pre-teen girls in need of a girly role model. At the same time, her publicized romance with the singer Billy
Crawford
propel them into power couple.
A crossing of the desert and low blows
THE success stories are made from high then from low, inevitably. And Lorie knows something about it. The singer is negotiating the shift to the 2010s a little poorly. She experienced the first bitter failure of her hitherto prosperous career.
His sixth album, Look at mereleased in 2011, is a
four commercial. She leaves her contract there with
Columbia Records.
At the microphone of RTL, in 2020, the artist evokes the twists and turns of the industry and the low blows dealt by the majors.
“Some people even hit me with dirt”, says Lorie, remembering her journey through the desert punctuated by betrayals. She talks about how her record company, according to her, sabotaged certain meetings with his fans.
Lorie speaks candidly about this crucial detail
At the beginning of 2024, Lorie comes to talk about endometriosis on the Clique set. In addition, she returns to her ramparts when faced with the other side of the coin: “It's still my clan. My family, my friends, who was there'before Lorie', To be 'during Lorie’ […]
and who will be there if there is an after.”Amused,
Mouloud Achour questions her about her almost schizophrenic relationship with fame.
“My real first name is Laure. And Lorie is my stage name. And that's why I wanted to take an artist name. I didn't want to mix everything up.” Then, she mentions a Proust's madeleine, Bodyguard with Whitney
Houston. We imagine her alone, in front of her TV, singing in playback the key song of the film, I Will Always Love You. Lorie, her (own) best friend?
