À propos de Johnny Hallyday
Johnny Hallyday was the biggest rock star France ever produced, often called the French Elvis. Across more than five decades he sold an estimated 110 million records and filled the country's largest stadiums, bringing American rock and roll into the French language. When he died in 2017, France held a national tribute as hundreds of thousands lined the streets of Paris.
