Mireille Mathieu (born 22 July 1946 in Avignon) is a French chanson singer who rose to international stardom after her television debut in 1965 and a celebrated run at the Paris Olympia. Over a career spanning six decades she has recorded more than 1,200 songs in eleven languages, with worldwide record sales exceeding 122 million copies. Her powerful, crystalline voice drew immediate comparisons to Édith Piaf, and she built a particularly devoted following in Germany, Russia and across Central Europe.
