The singer, who suffers from lung cancer, has canceled a concert scheduled for this evening as part of the Foire en Scène festival.
Florent Pagny, currently treated for lung cancercanceled his concert scheduled for Saturday evening at the Châlons-en-Champagne exhibition center as part of the Foire en Scène festival, according to information from BFMTV.
The singer still has another date to honor on his tour. It is expected on Friday September 8 as part of the Festival du Chant du Gros festival in Switzerland. He has not yet decided whether or not to maintain his concert.
The singer announced in January 2022 to be suffering from a lung cancer. While he had communicated on the positive evolution of his fight against cancer, he experienced a relapse. “It’s going great,” he told BFMTV last June.
“It’s going impeccable”, he also assured in June at the microphone of RTL. “The PET scan is good, it opens up prospects, I’m on the right track […] we took that shit away.”
He was also cautious: “It does not prevent it from coming back at any time, so you have to be vigilant. […] I will have to follow [le traitement].” Because if the chemotherapy is behind him, as he specifies, the immunotherapy continues.
An album and a book
Florent Pagny returned to the stage at the end of June for the Festival de Nîmes. “It’s a funny effect anyway. It’s the recovery and you’re still there,” said Florent Pagny on stage, to the ovation of the 10,000 spectators present.
Florent Pagny released this friday 2aa new album of duets, in which he reinterprets his great hits with the cream of French variety (Pascal Obispo, Zazie, Patrick Bruel).
The singer also continues to be a hit in bookstores, with his book Pagny by Florentpublished before the summer, and which has already sold 150,000 copies.
