Louis Chédid was present in the show A Sunday in the countrysidepresented by Frédéric Lopez. Facing Baptiste Lecaplain and the actress Audrey Dana, the two other guests, the singer returned to part of his childhood, and everything particularly his educational background. Answering questions from Frédéric Lopez, he returns to his parents' profession, particularly that of his mother, who was an artist. “I saw her writing all the time, and I said to myself, what is this wonderful job where you spend your day in bed. That’s why I chose the profession of artist. I want to be free,” he confided, subsequently discussing his schooling. “I had a haphazard education, I would say.”, he said. “Not to mention catastrophic. I hated school.”he admitted. “I was very good until I was eight, and at eight I don’t know what happened, I closed all the doors and kept only the reading doors.”
“I wasn’t interested”
Listening to his story, actress Audrey Dana asks him why he didn't start working. Indeed, Louis Chédid's father had difficulty accepting these poor results. “It made me feel very bad,” confided the singer, evoking his dad's reaction. “But that didn’t interest me.”he replied to the actress. “I repeated three times,” he clarified. At sixteen, he asked his parents to quit school. “And my mother started crying. So, I said to myself, well I’ll continue”he then said before saying that he got his BAC at 20 years old. “There are states of grace in life and there, I was in a state of grace” he joked. Despite a rather chaotic school career, Louis Chédid subsequently charted his course to become one of the essential artists on the French scene. However, music was not his first choice. “I was passionate about cinema”, he explained. He then moved to Brussels after the BAC to attend film school. His dream: to become a director. Life will have decided quite differently for him!
