In a recent interview with Le Monde, Michel Sardou confided in his relationship with the former President of the Republic. Nicolas Sarkozy did not appreciate a reflection from the artist.
Michel Sardou has never hidden his political opinions even if it means being accused of “right-wing singer”. He was also friends with great politicians. Recently, he confided in his relations with the various Presidents of the Republic. He notably returned to his estrangement with Nicolas Sarkozy. The interpreter of Connemara Lakes recognized in the columns of Le Monde: “It ended badly”. Indeed, Nicolas Sarkozy did not appreciate a reflection of the artist.
The 76-year-old singer explained why the former head of state was angry with him: “I made a comment that he didn’t like : I had come to the Élysée in a suit and tie, he was in shorts. I told him : ‘It does not look very President of the Republic’, and he got angry“, he confessed. If Michel Sardou does not have “never met” Emmanuel Macron, he has known many Presidents of the Republic during his long career.

During his interview, he returned to his meeting with François Mitterand. “With Chirac, I drank beers. But the one I really knew was François Mitterand, who knew my songs by heart.

Mitterrand made me a Knight of the Legion of Honor, Chirac made me an officer and Macron commander“, he concluded.
