Gérard Lanvin is a French actor who needs no introduction. But at 70 and despite his brilliant career, this great actor still has surprises for the public. Indeed, it is to the song that he puts himself in the company of his son Manu. In an interview with South Radio, Gérard Lanvin also speaks of his wife in surprising terms. Because it actually takes a hell of a character to compete with this actor. Married in 1984, Jennifer and Gérard Lanvin are a modern couple in which the woman is in charge.
Gérard Lanvin and Jennifer are a couple that makes sparks
Gérard Lanvin has been married twice. The first is with Dominique Quilichini. She will then be the wife of singer Renaud. Like her, Gérard Lanvin remarried with a songwriter. He therefore married the one we know as Jennifer in 1984. But her real name is Chantal Benoist. She takes this pseudonym when she begins her musical career. Disco singer, she will release two albums. At the same time, Jennifer is also a model and actress. In short, a woman who is not afraid to undertake.
Together, Gérard Lanvin and Jennifer have two children. Manu Lanvin is a musician and Léo Lanvin is an actor. Cats don’t make dogs as the saying goes. With a musician son and a singer wife, the actor let himself be tempted by a new career. With Manu, they are therefore collaborating for a first album which will be released next May. For the promotion of the latter, they were therefore invited on the airwaves of South Radio. The opportunity also for Gérard Lanvin to give his opinion on the current period. It is bluntly that he will describe it as lamentable and compare the last three Presidents of the Republic to people personalities.
A mythical spoken word that makes you smile
If we do not know at all the character of the actor, and new singer, these words are shocking. But if you have an idea of who this great French actor is, you won’t be surprised by his frankness. At 70, Gérard Lanvin no longer bothered with conveniences. And to tell the truth, he had never really cared about it. You will agree, to live with such a character, you have to have an equally brash character. And precisely, it is almost in these terms that he evokes his wife. Jennifer would have a volcanic character! She also does not kiss to make curves around her headlights when she addresses her husband. It is in his interest to go straight if he does not want to anger Madam.
Knowing that Jennifer is a singer, it may seem surprising that Gérard Lanvin is embarking on this adventure with Manu, their son. But then again, the actor’s wife knows what she wants. Her career is behind her and it is very good that way, she does not want to go back on the boards or on the stage today. It is therefore the father and the musician son who undertake to work as best they can despite the pandemic. The album planned for the month of May is titled Down here. It looks very promising. Provided that Gérard Lanvin’s notoriety as an actor also carries the project!
A new chapter opens in the musical field
The first single that has just been released is called Call for help. All funds collected from this title will go to associations. Released on March 8, International Women’s Rights Day, is perhaps not trivial. The journalist of South Radio therefore asks Gérard Lanvin on this subject. For him, the issue of women’s rights is important. And he readily admits that if he thought otherwise, he would risk having his suspenders pulled up by his wife. The one he nicknames “la taulière” doesn’t have her tongue in her pocket and knows how to put it back in its place in no time.

With Gérard Lanvin’s first steps in music and his wife’s career, in this area, he will have to pay attention to his way of doing things here again. No doubt that she will be there to watch over the grain if ever the actor is not 100% in his project. But it is a case that seems to have started very well and which we will hear more and more about in the press in the months to come.
