The singer spoke about her complicity with her sister Louise, “the person who matters most”, in the columns of Marie Claire, published last week. Discover his touching confidences.
Did you know that Louane was born under the name Anne Peichert? The star is actually not called Louane! So where does his stage name come from? The “Give me your heart” singer revealed in an interview for the recent edition of Marie Claire magazine that she chose her artist name just a few hours before she entered the set of “The Voice” in 2013.
At this precise moment, the young 16-year-old singer only thinks of one person: her little sister Louise. She then decides to combine her real first name “Anne” with that of “Louise”.
“I had five minutes to come up with my stage name. It was her that I thought of. First of all.», Reveals Louane.
How did the little sister react to the announcement of this stage name? Louise would have it “very bad experience”. A reaction that Louane completely understands: “It’s normal: I took a piece of his identity without his authorization.” she confides to Marie Claire.
Louane very close to her little sister
If Louane chose to pay tribute to Louise with her stage name it is because she has unconditional love for her. The little sister often supported the singer when she was bullied in middle school.
“She intervened to defend me.“, she revealed to Marie Claire. “In 4th grade, I was ashamed to be rescued by my sister who was in 6th grade“.
The artist continues his very touching confidences about his little sister in this same interview. “At this time, she is the person who matters most. I can no longer say that today for obvious maternity reasons.“, she admits, referring to her daughter Esmée.
