A few months after causing a sensation at the Paris Olympics, in his simplest outfit and covered in glittery blue, Philippe Katerine is back in music, this Friday, November 8, with the release of his new album Zouzounamed after his dog. He will also sing Luxor I love, his biggest hit, during a new bonus of the Star Academybroadcast on TF1.
Since 2010, he has lived with actress Julie Depardieu, whom he met on the set of the film I'm a no man's land. They have two children, Billy born June 16, 2011 and Alfred born August 8, 2012. One of them is passionate about knitting. This is what we learned in a long interview with Inrockswho decided to follow him for a week.
“2:30 p.m. Philippe Katerine shows up with, on his head, a wool bob knitted by his son, who is about to launch a YouTube channel called Captain Crochet“, we could read in particular. A surprising revelation, because it's not every day that we learn that a child is passionate about knitting! And yet…
Knitting, a fashionable and relaxing activity
“A study carried out by Opinion Way for PP Yarns & Co*, revealed last September, proves that knitting is trendy, among new targets, including men and generations Y and Z. In detail, more than a third under 35s (34%) now say they practice knitting, just like 32% of these gentlemen.”, revealed our colleagues from The Dispatch in an article published on their site in 2022.
It would also be a very healthy activity: “According to the survey presented by PP Yarns & Co, knitting is a source of well-being, relaxation, and even disconnection. More than three-quarters of respondents (76%) say that it is an activity that relaxes, while almost two-thirds (63%) go so far as to say that it has a positive impact on their health..”
Recently, it was Gérard Lanvin who admitted to loving sewing, during his time in As an aside. This was also quite unexpected, since he often conveys the image of someone who is quite tough and not very sensitive.
