Not exactly - he is the son of Hervé Lewis - her duel opponent in "Libertine" and physical trainer for all of her live shows.

Yes and no respectively to the two questions.

She only performed in London and Paris and Paris is the easier place for most Europeans to get to.

Because of all the foreign tourists that come to see her when she performs there.

...because of all of the American tourists who want discounted tickets to see her in destination cities.

But it's wrong.... The English Wiki for SDF hasn't been updated to include this: Nevermore 2023/2024 — Wikipédia

The wikis aren't exactly consistent either. (but Les Inrockuptibles is probably not the most authoritative source on concert attendance) https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nevermore_2023/2024 https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stade_de_France#Concerts The only thing that can be said with certainty is that Bey and Mylène are the only two females to have sold out SDF three times during a single tour. The actual numbers depend more on stage configuration and size than popularity. Indochine sold 97,000 tickets for one show at SDF with its central stage.

Mylène Farmer - Nevermore 2024. 240,000 spectators for three shows. (Math has never been the strong suit of journalists.) Gross receipt data has not been released, but her tickets sold for less than Bey's. I don't think 215K is right for CC attendance. 80K is the typical "sold out" number for SDF.

Just checking to see if anyone listens to anything other than English songs. Can't argue with those three. If a song isn't 25 yrs old, it's too young to be "classic" (yet), and those three qualify or are close enough. "Rever" didn't chart well, but it's been performed in every show and covered a bunch - so yeah, put it at #5 and replace the others with "Les mots" and CUBJ. "XXL"? Its use (vice XXG) has been integrated into everyday French vocabulary since this song was released, so it's not much of a stretch to call it a pop classic in France. The "Innamoramento" album at age 25 deserves some love though. Which song(s)?

Mylène Farmer 1. Désenchantée 2. Libertine 3. Pourvu qu'elles soient douces 4. Sans contrefaçon 5. XXL 6. California 7. Innamoramento 8. Je te rends ton amour Others TBD when they become 25 years old.

The song was done as part of a tribute to her friend, David Lynch, at Cannes. She now meanders towards her destiny alone while feeling his presence all around her - just as in the lyrics to the song. One of David's last published works was a remix of Mylène's "Je te rends ton amour". The music video for the original version of the song starts with Mylène going to Confession.

I suspect that the wet hair look was done to get into Laura Palmer character mode for the David Lynch homage during the opening ceremony.

Kinda like listening to "Psychiatric" and fast forwarding past the "Elephant Man" intro. Here's the entire homage: https://youtu.be/ikXuBVXa2yY?si=3vLeHvxdvL1rrEVF
