It is a most unexpected announcement that caused a stir this weekend of May 1: Diam’s is about to do his big comeback. The artist who made the heyday of French rap in the 2000s who decided to leave everything to live far from cameras and recording studios will participate in the 75th edition of the Cannes Film Festival. Melanie Georgiades, her real name, is indeed collaborating on a documentary with Houda Benyamina and Anne Cissé for BrutX entitled Hello. She decided to tell her story in this film which will be screened at Cannes, during a special session. The interpreter of The Dumplingwho was a victim of depression, will find places that have marked her as well as people who have “brought so much“. But by the way, when was his last appearance?
It was in 2020 that Diam’s made a surprise appearance on social networks. The artist, who has become so rare, was photographed with her husband Faouzi Tarkhani, and two other men, and this shot on which we recognize Vitaa’s faithful friend was shared by the Tunisian singer K2rhym. The artist behind the post did not specify where the photo was taken. This therefore did not allow fans of the ex-rapper to know where the sublime room in which she was standing was located at that time. We just know that this surprise appearance happened at the time of Ramadan. And it’s again during this “charity month” that Diam’s has been talking about this year.
“My depression, my suffering, my quest…”
Remember that Diam’s moved to Saudi Arabia with her husband and children several years ago. She leads a peaceful life there, away from the spotlight. If she is not used to expressing herself on social networks, the ex-rapper had nevertheless taken the floor at the beginning of Ramadan, this year 2020, to wish a very good month to her brothers and sisters “from France and elsewhere“. Regarding Salam, the film will be unveiled at the Cannes Film Festival, which will be held from May 17 to 28, this year. “For years, people knocked on my door asking for permission to stage my life, to play it, to interpret itshe said on social networks. Many requests for documentaries, biopics, series have continued to flow. I had the feeling that I was being asked to give the keys to my life so that others could make a film of it. A show. My depression, my suffering, my quest, my rebirth: a film? An entertainment ?“It is now decided, it is she who will tell her story.
