A huge thank you to Melfan for sending in the missing parts 1 & 4 of Marion Cotillard’s appearance on the Vivement Dimanche show back in October. Please visit her site for Marion’s former co-star and friend Mélanie Doutey who has just moved to the same agent as Marion. Enjoy!

Last month, on October 10, 2010, the French Sunday TV Show Vivement Dimanche had Guillaume Canet as guest of honour. He got to invite people to join him and of course Marion Cotillard was one of those he invited. First she joined Yodelice as a regular band member to play the drums for the song ‘More than meets the eye’. Later she performed the duet ‘Five Thousand Nights’ together with Maxim Nucci before the two joined Guillaume on the couch to be interviewed. Marion Cotillard talked of her and her family’s love of music, how she chose the name of her character in the Yodelice universe after her maternal grandmother Simone. They also talked about her other grandmother and Marion’s character in Les petits mouchoirs. Later, these 3 were joined by almost the complete cast of Les petits mouchoirs.

Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find an actual recording of the first song as well as of the last part of the show. If you have one could you please let us use it for the site? Thank you.

I’m very sorry for the delay but I finally have an update about Les enfants de la télé for you. Marion Cotillard & Guillaume Canet together with the majority of the ‘Les petits mouchoirs‘ cast appeared on the French TV show where they show old, rare and funny clips of the guests on September 25, 2010. A HUGE thank you to Melfan for her tremendous help with this – without her this post wouldn’t have been possible!

They showed the following Marion-related clips: 2008 Award montage, 16 year old Marion in a campaign against drinking (Tu t’es vu quand t’as bu), 7 and 8 year old Marion in TV movies by Claude Cailloux (La monde des tout petits & Lucie), Dance routine ‘Take it All’ in Nine, Forehead Tittaes and 18 year old Marion in TV series Extrême Limite.

On Friday evening a new episode of Mon Taratata à moi aired on France 2. That’s the version of the show where artists choose a performance by someone else from the Taratata archives for their personal Taratata show – while sitting in a photo booth. This time Marion Cotillard chose David Bowie because he’s a real genius and there’s really no need to say more about him.

France 4 & 2 finally aired the Taratata episode featuring Marion Cotillard. She appeared as Simone along with Yodelice for the song ‘More than meets the eye’ and then performed the David Bowie song ‘Velvet Goldmine’ as a duo with Yodelice. And then she was also interviewed. Rewatch the entire episode on MyTaratata.com.

She talked about her love of music and how she’s always had the dream to make music but it wasn’t until Yodelice aka Maxim Nucci pushed her that she’s living the dream. Yodelice was quick to praise her, saying that she’s very gifted and quick in learning how to play instruments by herself. She learned how to play the piano at home when she was little and how to play the cello for a film (‘Toi et moi‘) and now the guitar and bass guitar. When told not to minimalize her talents she explained that it was out of respect for musicians that she’s careful not to over emphasize her musical talents. When asked whether she dreamed of becoming a singer (musicienne) or an actress (comédienne) when she was a little girl she said she dreamed of being in musicals (comédies musicales). This lead to the music video Marion was in when she was 14 years old. She loved the song ‘Petite Fille’ a lot at the time and still loves the band Les Wampas. They joked that they could have a re-union on the show. Marion was also asked whether it’s imaginable that there’d be a solo album in the future and she said yes. The host joked that this probably means it’s already in preparation.

Here are links to things that were mentioned in the interview: Petite Fille (pictures, video), Milord duet with Jenifer (pictures, video) and The Eyes of Mars (pictures, video).

I recorded bits of this night’s Mon Taratata à moi from my internet TV player. The quality is not the best but you can now enjoy Marion Cotillard in a photo booth choosing a performance by Lily Allen from the Taratata archives for her personal Taratata show. Why Lily? Because Marion loves England and Rock – and that’s what Lily stands for.

There was about 1.5 second at the end of the show I didn’t manage to record where Marion was waving goodbye. Now, I really can’t wait for next week when she’ll actually be performing on the real Taratata show!

Yodélice’s new music video to the first song Breathe In on the new album is out! Watch the music video on UniversalMusic.fr. It features footage from the studio as well as live concerts – and really captures the atmosphere of seeing the band peform live! I’m not sure whether this is the final version or only a teaser – but for my taste it’s far too short!

Today’s the day Yodélice’s new album Cardioid is released. Order it from Amazon.fr. I’ve picked it up at a music store earlier today and enjoy listening to it – especially the track Five Thousand Nights which is the duo with Simone (aka Marion Cotillard).

For more information on this great band check out their official site. Marion appeared in the music video of the first single off the new album as well as in a promotional picture featured in Elle back in August. During the evening news on M6 on Saturday Yodelice (aka Maxim Nucci) said that Marion inspires him and is simply very talented.

As of Wednesday, ‘Les petits mouchoirs‘ is being shown in cinemas across France. On the day of the premiere alone, 166,477 people went to see it – which apparently makes this the 2nd best French opening of the year behind Camping 2 and the 12th best start overall. Congratulations! Visit the OFFICIAL movie website!

To promote the movie, Marion Cotillard attended more advance screenings: on Tuesday evening in Montpellier (South of France) from where she took a plane back to Paris – Guillaume & Co. attended screenings in 5 different cinemas in Paris throughout Wednesday – the day of the theatrical release. View a picture of Marion and Guillaume taking a stroll near UGC Bercy in the morning.

Then, pre-recorded interviews with Marion Cotillard were shown on TV while Guillaume Canet was a guest in the studio: Evening news JT20h on France 2, October 17 and Cooking Show C A Vous on France 5, October 19. This show went to the Paris premiere and asked the cast members to divulge something about Guillaume we didn’t know yet. Marion was asked what he’d like to have on the show – she suggested Crumble, which was then the dessert on the show. And everyone was given a handkerchief (“mouchoir”) with their name.

A proper video about the gala premiere in Paris can be found on Gala.fr and Marion, Guillaume & François did stay for the La boîte à questions on Monday. The segment – with a reference to Marion’s Forehead Tittaes – aired on Wednesday on Canal+.
