Anne Edwige Maria Peichert[1] (French pronunciation: [an peʃɛʁ]; born 26 November 1996), known by her stage name Louane Emera ([lwan emɛʁa]) or simply Louane, is a French singer and actress. In France she became known for being a semi-finalist in the 2013 season of The Voice: la plus belle voix, and is known internationally for her role in the 2014 film La Famille Bélier, for which she won the César Award for Most Promising Actress. She plays a leading role in the 2022 French TV series Beyond Signs (Visions).

Early life

[edit]

Anne Peichert grew up in the French department of Pas-de-Calais, with her four sisters and her only brother Bach.[2] Louane's father, Jean-Pierre Peichert, was French, son of a Polish mother and German father. Her mother, Isabel Pinto dos Santos, was Portuguese, the daughter of a Portuguese father and a Brazilian mother.[3]

In 2008, she took part in L'École des stars, a French music competition broadcast on channel Direct 8.[4]

Louane, who was diagnosed with ADHD at the age of eight,[5] said that her parents often had to punish her due to her hyperactivity, but that she has learned a lot about discipline from them and that they always treated her with love.[6]

Louane lost both of her parents during her teenage years; her rendition of "Imagine" was dedicated to her father who had died just three months prior to her appearance in The Voice and her mother died in 2014 after a lengthy illness.[7][8]

Career

[edit]

Music

[edit]

In 2013, her first real breakthrough came with her taking part in The Voice: la plus belle voix's second season. She auditioned with "Un homme heureux" by William Sheller with all four coaches Florent Pagny, Jenifer, Louis Bertignac and Garou turning their chairs. She opted to be part of Team Louis Bertignac. Her "blind audition" episode was broadcast on 16 February 2013.[citation needed]

On 23 March 2013, during the Musical Battles round, she was picked by Bertignac against her rival Diana Espir, after both interpreted "Torn" by Natalie Imbruglia. During the live rounds, she sang "Les moulins de mon cœur" by Michel Legrand and was saved by public vote. On 27 April 2013 she performed "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen and was saved by her mentor coach to go through. With Lennon's "Imagine" dedicated to her deceased father, she was saved yet again by public vote. But her luck ended in the semi-finals after her rendition of "Quelqu'un m'a dit" by Carla Bruni. She had a cumulative score of 74 while the other Team Bertignac semi-finalist Loïs had a composite score of 76. Accordingly, Louane was eliminated, finishing 5th to 8th.[citation needed]

On 5 February 2015, she served as an opening act for Jessie J's showcase in Paris.[citation needed]

Her debut studio album, Chambre 12, was released on 2 March 2015,[9] to great success. Her single "Avenir" also topped the French charts.

In 2017, she provided vocals for the track, "It Won't Kill Ya," from The Chainsmokers' debut album, Memories...Do Not Open.[citation needed]

On 1 September 2021, for Pokémon 25, she released the song "Game Girl", whose name is a pun on the Game Boy.[citation needed]

After her appearance in The Voice, Éric Lartigau noticed her[10] and cast her for his movie La Famille Bélier in which she played the role of Paula, a 16-year-old who is the only hearing person in a family of deaf people. The character sings a number of Michel Sardou songs, most notably "Je vole".[11] As a result, she won the César Award for Most Promising Actress at the 40th ceremony of the Césars.[12]

She plays a leading role as a child psychologist[13] in the TF1 2022 French TV series Visions, which premiered at Canneseries that year.[14][15] The series, directed by Akim Isker, also stars Soufiane Guerrab, Jean-Hugues Anglade, and Julien Boisselier.[16] The story centres on an investigation into a missing child, and young boy who appears to see strange visions.[13]
