In the post, we discover a photo gallery of the artistclearly very complicit with another gentleman, by the name of Herby Moreau. A 56-year-old man, who died suddenly this Sunday, November 3. And this man was far from being anonymous: he was a journalist and cultural columnist very popular in Quebecvery comfortable on the red carpet, particularly during large prestigious ceremonies, like the Cannes Film Festival or the Oscars ceremony. With his natural good nature and contagious energy, Herby had succeeded in attracting many Quebec artists and celebritiesbut also international, like Patrick Bruel, with whom he had developed a friendship outside the star system.

“I can’t believe I’m writing these words.”

Regarding the caption of the postPatrick Bruel has difficulty containing his emotionnot understanding how he could have come to write this tribute post for his friend. He continues by remembering the presence of the journalist at his side, particularly in the “first times“, and the “important moments“.

“Herby… Herby Moreau… I can't believe I'm writing these words… You have been there from the beginning, since my very first day in Montreal. You have been part of all the important moments, so many first times, so many red carpets, so many surprises… ” – Patrick Bruel

In his tribute, Patrick Bruel also refers to the luminous character of his friendand thanks him for all this wonderful complicity and the beautiful moments spent together.

“You knew how to make us laugh, give us confidence, in a few words, make artists shine because that was your gift. Your work was above all your passion, your life. Thank you for this loyaltythis complicity, this respect and above all our bursts of laughter! You leave a big void… but also your mark. All my thoughts for your son, your mother, your family and your many friends. Thanks for everything” – Patrick Bruel

A difficult ordeal for the artist, who should be able to find a little comfort by meeting his audience again on December 8 at the Accor Arena in Paris.
