Jenifer Bartoli: Star Academy's Superstar


Jenifer Bartoli was born November 15, 1982 in Nice, France to Michel Dadouche and Christine Bartoli. She also has a younger brother named Jonathan. At the tender age of fifteen she participated in the Graines de star television show, however this was not what catapulted her to success. Success finally arrived when Bartoli won the first series of Star Academy. In the following years her career as a musician prospered including going on tour with her new band, touring as a solo artist, and performing at the Paris Olympia. Bartoli claims her style of music and inspiration is found in the pop/rock genre, as seen in her top ten single "Des Mots Qui Resonnent".



Jenifer Bartoli's awards include Best French Artist at the 2004 MTV Europe Music Awards, and at the NRJ Music Awards: Best French Newcomer (2003), Best French Album (2005), and Best French Female Artist (2004, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2011).

What about your musician's sound do you like? How does the sound affect your mood? What does the sound remind you of?

I enjoy the calming sound of Jenifer Bartoli's song "Au Soleil". The repition in the chorus makes it quite catchy. She has a very feminine, serene voice, yet the background instruments create a flowing beat in the background. This beat keeps the listener intrigued. I feel calm and carefree listening to Bartoli's music, it does not conjure up any extreme emotions, but rather mellows out the listener. Her music reminds me of a mix between Sheryl Crow and Colbie Caillat.

What do other viewers say about the musician in the comments on YouTube?
