The people of Toulouse almost missed the singer on stage. Michel Sardou recently lived an unexpected situation a few hours before his concert at the Zénith in Toulouse (Haute-Garonne) on Thursday February 22, 2024. The renowned singer, aged 77, came close to canceling his show due to a situation that was unusual to say the least. The source of this strange emergency? His shampoo, lost just before the big moment on stageaccording to information from our colleagues at La Dépêche du Midi. As he drove to the venue, the Connemara Lakes singer realized he had forgotten his hair lotion at the Pullman, the hotel where he was staying in the heart of the Pink City. Panic then seized him, prompting an immediate reaction.
Demands, but not completely crazy
Completely panicked, Michel Sardou immediately contacted the establishment for staff to find their product before going on stage. The Pullman employees therefore went out of their way to find the precious sesame of the singer. Fortunately, the mission was a success, and Michel Sardou was able to recover his product in time for the evening show. “It’s true that Michel Sardou had demands, but not completely crazy ones. It remained within reason and he did not behave badly,” the hotel management informed our colleagues. So, Michel Sardou was able to put on his show at the Zénith in Toulouse, narrowly avoiding a cancellation which would have disappointed his fans. This incident comes after the concern aroused by the cancellation of three concerts in December 2023 in Brest (Finistère) and Clermont-Ferrand (Puy-de-Dôme), following the contamination of Michel Sardou by Covid-19. The singer had confided to Telegram : “I was completely knocked out, not being able to walk.” Michel Sardou, despite these episodes, remains an appreciated artist, and his tour I remember a goodbye continues to bring crowds together, even if this time, it was her shampoo that almost stole the show from her on-stage performance.
