Biography

Elsa Lunghini, a French singer-songstress and actress of considerable renown, entered this world on May 20, 1973.

Elsa Lunghini, a talented individual, hails from a creative family, with her father George Lunghini being a multifaceted artist, proficient in acting, photography, and songwriting. On the other hand, her mother Christiane Jobert is a skilled painter, imbuing Elsa with a rich cultural heritage. It's worth noting that Elsa's paternal lineage has Italian roots, while her maternal side boasts Sephardic Jewish ancestry. Furthermore, she shares a familial connection with notable actresses Eva Green and Josephine Jobert, making her a part of a long line of talented performers.

Elsa, a talented individual, embarked on her professional journey at a remarkably early age, making her acting debut in a film at the tender age of seven in Claude Miller's thought-provoking drama, Garde à vue, alongside the renowned actress Romy Schneider, in the year 1981.

Fast-forward to 1990, Elsa achieved a remarkable milestone at the age of 17, becoming the youngest artist to perform in the main program at the iconic Olympia in Paris, a prestigious venue that has hosted some of the greatest performers in the world, in October of that year.

Furthermore, Elsa's impressive talent and dedication earned her another distinction, as she became the youngest artist to have a number one hit in the Top 50 in France, a testament to her hard work and passion for her craft.

Elsa's inaugural album, titled simply "Elsa", made its debut in the year 1988 and, remarkably, had achieved double-platinum status by 1993, a testament to its enduring popularity.

The album, which was crafted with the guidance of her musician father, boasted an impressive array of hit singles, including the memorable "Quelque chose dans mon cœur", the enchanting "Jour de neige", the captivating "Jamais nous", and the endearing "Un Roman d'amitié".

As a result of her collaborative efforts with her father, Elsa was able to sell an impressive 600,000 copies of her album, a remarkable feat that speaks to her talent and dedication to her craft.

It was the year 1990 that witnessed the unveiling of Elsa's sophomore album, a masterful work titled Rien que pour ça, which boasted a crowning jewel in the form of the chart-topping single "Rien que pour ça". The album, a testament to Elsa's artistic prowess, also featured the standout tracks "Pleure doucement" and "Qu'est-ce que ça peut lui faire". Following the album's release, Elsa embarked on her inaugural tour, a thrilling experience that took her to the iconic Olympia, where she regaled audiences with her unique blend of talent and charisma.

In the year 1992, a pivotal moment in the career of the talented artist Elsa unfolded as she released a mid-rock single titled "Bouscule-moi", which remarkably achieved significant commercial success, catapulting her to greater heights of recognition.

However, her subsequent releases, comprising two singles, from her third album, Douce violence, unfortunately failed to replicate the same level of success, leaving fans and critics alike wondering if the momentum had been lost.

Years later, in 1996, at the tender age of 23, Elsa, with her creative juices flowing, embarked on a new creative endeavor by writing and composing her fourth studio album, Chaque jour est un long chemin, which, despite being a labor of love, surprisingly sold a modest 20,000 copies, a testament to her unwavering dedication to her craft.

Over the past few years, the talented Elsa has remained actively engaged in her professional pursuits, while also lending her support to various philanthropic endeavors. One notable instance of her charitable involvement was her participation in the Tour of the Resto du Coeur soup-kitchen charity, a testament to her commitment to making a positive impact on her community.

In addition to her charitable work, Elsa has continued to hone her craft, taking on new and exciting projects. She has starred in not one, but two television movies, showcasing her versatility and range as a performer. Furthermore, she has also been a part of a prominent television advertising campaign for Danone yoghurt, further solidifying her status as a sought-after talent in the entertainment industry.
