Pascal Obispo is in the spotlight this Friday on France 3. The program “L’Anniversaire secret” will pay tribute to his thirty-year career. A career that the artist does not wish to extend forever… Explanations.
The Secret Birthdaybroadcast from 9:10 p.m. this November 24, 2023 on France 3, spotlights the singer Pascal Obispo. Around thirty guests, from Zazie to Élodie Frégé, including Patrick Bruel, Nolwenn Leroy and Michaël Gregorio, are there. Objective ? Pay tribute to the 58-year-old performer on the occasion of his thirty-year career. A surprise show, which the singer absolutely did not expect on the day of recording, and which was therefore carried out without there having been the slightest rehearsal. Even Pascal Obispo’s mother makes a small appearance.
After thirty years of career and hits, the show promises to be particularly rich in emotions. And all the more so since the singer’s fans have already been warned by Pascal Obispo himself, they will not be able to count on him to sing on stage for the next thirty years. In fact, on September 16, the interpreter of The important thing is to love had revealed on the airwaves of RFM in the show 1 hour with… by Bernard Montiel not wanting to drag on.
Pascal Obispo, retired on January 8, 2025?
Returning to his current tour which will end in January 2024, Pascal Obispo indulged in some confidences concerning his plans for the future: “I’m stopping at the beginning of February, I’m rehearsing in Rome with Giuliano Peparini who is the new director on stage Ten Commandments. So. Because we’re doing a new version, and in March, we’re going back on stage. And then it will be next summer, so in a year, even less than a year. We’re going to do the festivals,” he explained. And continued: “At the start of the school year, October, November, December, little surprise. I’m going to create something else to take me to January 8, 2025 and then I’ll say goodbye.”
Taken by surprise, Bernard Montiel then tried to find out more. Was it a joke or was Pascal Obispo really serious? “I’ll say goodbye to you. I’m 60 years old. We’re leaving and then we’re doing something else,” the singer replied, before justifying himself: “We’re not going to go too far. No, we have to go to the top.” Pascal Obispo did not hesitate to take the case of Jean-Jacques Goldman as an example: “He stopped at 51, don’t bother me! It’s not bad, I lasted nine more years!”
