Jane Birkin

[purplelucrezia]

i have most of her old Gainsbourg recordings purple, and i've seen her with Joe D'Alessandro in the film that made famous from the 'Je t aime moi non plus' song ..a cult movie but -typical of me- i'm not sure of its title maybe it was 'je t' aime moi non plus' ..i'm so bad with titles...

How cool, I'm quite jealous of you! It's so difficult to find anything of hers here.

tFS star style is finaly be getting.. stylish.. way to go

And long may it last... I suppose even lovely Britney can get tiresome eventually.

She's got an elusive quality about her. Is that her husband she's with?

That's Serge Gainsburg, with whom she had a very long relationship.

"Recruited by French filmmaker Pierre Grimblat to star in his movie Slogan, it was love at first sight between Jane and her costar Serge Gainsbourg, a popular singer and musician.

A fashionable couple on the Paris scene, they made the headlines in 1969 with a artfully disturbing song, “Je t’aime moi non plus” Offending to some people, a delight to others, Jane’s sensuous lovemaking sighs became a hit around the world.

A fragile, thin voice always on the verge of breaking remained her lasting trademark and was cleverly used by Gainsbourg who adapted his songwriting to Jane’s timbre. He composed especially for her and shaped her according to his desires. They stayed together for twelve years, becoming a popular couple, adulated by the public and the media. In 1971, they had a daughter, Charlotte, who is now an actress."
