For several weeks, Nicole Croisille has been discreetly fighting against cancer, following chemotherapy treatments necessary for her recovery.
On November 9, during the inauguration of the wax statue of Luc Plamondon at the Grévin museum in Paris, Nicole Croisille seemed to radiate vitality. However, behind the scenes, she is waging a silent but resolute battle against cancer. According to France Dimanche, the singer and actress, who recently celebrated her 87th birthday, is being treated for this illness in a hospital in western Paris, alternating between hospital care and confinement at home. This revelation is surprising, because Nicole Croisille has always displayed an image of strength and autonomy.
Nicole’s battle with cancer comes with the difficult side effects of chemotherapy, including hair loss and weight loss. This led the artist to adopt wearing a beanie, a notable change for someone who has always taken great care of her appearance. Despite these challenges, Nicole has not spoken publicly about her illness, but hinted at her situation during an interview on RTL in October 2023, discussing her desire for autonomy and her perspective on life and death.
