Emilie Jolie
(Pretty Emilie)
In
1981, when Vanessa was eight years old, she appeared as a contestant on
the European television program L'Ecole des Fans (The School of
Fans). A sort of cult TV hit, the show featured very young children
doing
what were often very bad renditions of well-known songs. She brought mom,
dad, and uncle Didier, who had used his connection (he knew the piano
player) to get his niece on the show.
She sang a song from Emilie Jolie, a famous French musical by
Philippe Chatel, who was that night's guest. The song was "Chanson
d'Emilie et du Grand Oiseau" ("Emilie and the Big Bird's
Song") and is originally a duo. Vanessa sang both parts in a pretty
little voice. It was definitely a preview of her talent. The cutest
moment? She messed up at a word at one point, and gave a nervous grin to
her parents!
Some
years later, Vanessa returned to the School of Fans to help other children
sing. The kids performed adorable but atrocious covers of her songs, and
proved that Vanessa would be the only one to come out of that show a
superstar.
