From Monday August 21, 2023, Zazie is the guest of the podcast Elodie’s world broadcast on France info the whole week. Asked about her career of more than 30 years and her tour Airtour which begins in September 2023, the committed singer shared anecdotes to better understand some of her artistic choices, in his eleven studio albums and three live albums. The singer-songwriter has managed to find the balance between the studio, the stage and her family life. Indeed, when Élodie Suigo asks her about the biggest upheaval of her life, she readily evokes the birth of her daughter Lola in 2002. “At first, I did not understand what was happening to me”, she admitted in the third episode of the podcast, Wednesday August 23, 2023. If at the start, it was difficult for the interpreter to I am a man to reconcile the role of “Mom” and the role of“artist”she ended up linking the two. “I started to carry her here and there, less when she was at school, in my travels, in my discoveries”confided the coach of The Voice.
A professional life difficult to adapt to his private life
Understand that “the ‘mom’ box and the ‘artist’ box went together” allowed Zazie to simplify her choices in her career as an artist and her life as a new mother. “Children are great sponges because when their parents are happy, they are happy too. […] When the time you spend with them is of quality, they are happy”she rejoiced in front of the host of the Elodie’s World. But the decision to integrate little Lola into her very special life as an author-singer-composer came late. Indeed, Zazie confided that she had decided to stop “to blame” three years after the birth of her only daughter. “It’s not going to be possible because there, either I stop everything, either I miss everything: and my moments on stage, and the moments when I am Lola’s mother”she remembered on France info. This awareness seems to have served Zazie. Since the birth of her daughter in 2002, she has won three Victoires de la musique, while she had already won three between 1993 and 1996. Which makes her one of the most awarded French artists.
