Angry with Johnny Hallyday when he married his daughter Adeline Blondieau, there remains a great accomplice of the youth of the idol.

It will take place on Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 January at the Espace Champerret in the Seventeenth district of the capital. This 91st edition will pay tribute to Johnny Hallyday with a special guest, Long Chris.

Ex-lead singer of the group, Long Chris and The Daltons, in the sixties, Christian Blondieau (his real name) has mostly been the lyricist of many tubes of his friend Johnny. Among these hits not Play rock’n’roll for me, I am born in the street, and especially the legendary Gabrielle.

But Long Chris is also the father of Adeline Blondieau, two-time wife of Johnny, in 1990-1992 and 1994-1995, despite their 28 year age difference.

Twenty years later, Adeline Blondieau lodged a complaint for defamation against her ex-husband for the negative image it gave of it in his autobiography, In my eyes (Plon, 2013).
