If the public quickly became passionate about the adventures of the Chamade sisters, three young women who run a café during the day and turn into thieves at night to steal works of art, the opening credits of the cartoon also made an impression.
“Today's Girls / Fitness Kids / We love to laugh and dance” ; “Three lively panthers / Who in a flash / Can leap without a sound!“.
This theme song, performed at the time by Isabelle Guiard, is engraved in the memory of an entire generation. It must be said that these few words perfectly sum up the daring and elusive spirit of the three heroines. Carried by a catchy melody, the song evokes the double lives of the Chamade sisters and their sense of adventure, themes which resonated with audiences in the 80s.

Very quickly, they attract the attention of Quentin Chapuis (Mohamed Belkhir), captain of the Banditry Repression Brigade and Tam's former love, who of course is unaware that the woman he still loves is part of this trio of thieves. ..
If a new generation of viewers is preparing to discover the new adventures of the Chamade sisters, fans of the cult cartoon will be delighted to know that the cult theme song has been reproduced.
But who sings the theme song for the TF1 series?
If the credits of the French series carried by Camille Lou, Constante Labbé and Claire Romain are identical to those of the cult cartoon, it is Anne Sila, finalist of The Voice and winner of The Voice All Stars, who succeeds Isabelle Guiard, the singer of the 80s version.
