Hélène Ségara

Hélène Ségara is a singer/songwriter from Six-Fours-les-Plages, France who started her career performing in various piano bars along the French Riviera. Though Ségara released her debut single, "Lion," in 1993, the French chanteuse didn't receive critical applause or commercial popularity until she released her sophomore album, Au Nom d'une femme, in 2000. Having proven herself as a formidable singer as well as stage performer--with a notable appearance as the lead character of Esmeralda in the famed musical Note Dame de Paris--Ségara has built a reputation as a multi-talented individual capable of holding her own in various artistic mediums.
