00:00 In remission of his lung cancer, Florent Pagny is better.
00:13 The singer can even go back on stage to reconnect with his audience.
00:18 But that doesn't mean he's out of business for so long.
00:26 To heal this day, he confided to have a long way to go before hoping for a total cure.
00:33 For more than a year and a half now, Florent Pagny is fighting a lung cancer.
00:41 The singer had announced his illness in January 2022, explaining that he was then forced
00:50 to put his career in brackets to devote himself to his healing.
00:56 Because the husband of Azusa was well occupied with his chemotherapy sessions, which the
01:01 aunt was changing physically.
01:03 The latter bore their fruit but Florent Pagny was still the victim of a worrying
01:10 relapse following his refusal to continue his treatment.
01:13 The 61-year-old artist has now understood the lesson and there is no longer a question
01:21 for him to make a difference.
01:22 A rigor that allowed him to regain his form.
01:27 "As long as I'm not dead", said Esty on the right track, he said with positivity
01:36 during an interview for TV 7 Jours, to appear on Monday, August 21.
01:44 The artist remains nevertheless careful.
01:46 "But I still go to a clinic every three weeks, to get some juice, and check regularly
01:51 to make sure it doesn't come back. "
01:55 Since if Esty has already come back once, did he remember?
02:00 "It's okay.
02:06 Anyway, I'm nowhere, because you never know when it stops.
02:12 I am announced between 5 and 10 years of treatment before being able to say that the risk of
02:16 relapse is far. "
02:17 If he didn't totally get out of business, Florent Pagny still insisted on granting
02:24 the right to return on stage.
02:26 They thus started this summer in a tour of 17 dates until September.
02:34 A somewhat special tour since it is subject to several very specific rules.
02:42 These are festivals, so if Esty is a little calmer.
02:48 "I'm not on stage every day, it's mainly played on the weekend.
02:55 The arrangements are mainly based on my diet, more alcohol, as little sugar as possible.
03:03 And I don't do more rehearsals, to save myself.
03:10 But it's going well, the voice is beautiful, everything is fine.
03:16 It's even clearer than before, since I stopped smoking a year and a half ago, now,
03:24 I'm on stage.
03:26 "
03:27 Florent Pagny is in any case always greatly applauded by his audience who waited for him.
03:32 "We do indeed always warmly welcome him on stage.
03:37 But the singer has remained professional.
03:43 I can't get carried away by too many emotions, because otherwise, in the end, we don't do
03:48 the same show "he said.
03:50 "The first of September, Florent Pagny will be at the honor on TF1 with the show "With
03:59 Florent", "Everyone is there" which was recorded in June last at the musical stage, in Paris.
04:06 He will be surrounded by many friends including Patrick Bruel, Marc Lavoine, Slimane, Biané
04:13 or Carla Bruni-Sarkozy for this great evening.
04:16 "We are very happy to welcome Florent Pagny to the stage.
04:33 We are very happy to welcome Florent Pagny to the stage.
04:57 Thank you all.
