the day Anne Sila heard the terrible news

They meet for the first time in 2015 on the set of the show The Voice broadcast on TF1. At the time, Anne Sila will try her luck on the stage of the singing program and will charm the jury members. She will end up choosing Florent Pagny as coach, but she will fail in the final against Lilian Renaud. In 2021, she returns and causes a sensation in publishing All Stars where she will sing I’m coming back to get you. An artistic performance full of emotion which will even have made the famous French singer shed a few tears.

What you need to know is that between Anne Sila and Florent Pagny, there is a real bond that goes beyond the coach/student relationship. The young woman, for example, was able to count on the support of her mentor when she was the victim of a knife attack by her ex-companion. “I was afraid to go on stage. Florent remained very calm, very attentive. He offered me some rosehip oil that he makes with his wife in Argentina. He didn’t say much, just, “It’s for the scars.” says the young artist, before adding that she had found this “very fine”.

Florent Pagny supported by Anne Sila

Florent Pagny and Anne Sila therefore have a rather special relationship. So when the latter learned that her favorite mentor had cancer, she was in shock and immediately showed his support for the French singer. In an interview for the magazine Variation, she looks back on this precise moment when she learns the terrible news. “I was at Les Enfoirés and I didn’t know. No one told me, because they all thought I knew. It shocked me and I was very scared, I admit. I didn’t dare call him at first, it had so devastated me. confides the young woman. “I overcame my fears and mustered up the courage to pick up that damn phone. And once again, it was Florent and his strength of character who reassured me. He is incredible and I am strongly attached to him” she adds. On her social networks, Anne Sila posted a photo with Florent Pagny and wrote a few words: “There’s no one stronger than you Florent. We love you”. “He’s so strong, you wonder what he can’t accomplish. He has a strength of hope that I find quite incredible and at the same time, he is someone calm, poised and thoughtful” she added in an interview.
