Clara Luciani at the 35th Victoires de la Musique, February 14, 2020. Gilles GUSTINE – FTV – France Televisions
The verdict has fallen. Presented by an army of presenters (Daphné Bürki, Faustine Bollaert, Julian Bugier, Laurent Ruquier…), the 35th Music Victories dedicated the artists who marked the year 2019. A ceremony marked by the removal of all categories of musical genres (rap album, world music, electronic music …), and
a controversy around the lack of diversity among the singers and singers named.
Tensions that did not prevent Philippe Katerine, Clara Luciani or Alain Souchon from being crowned. 20 minutes invites you to discover the complete list of these 35th Music Victories:
Male artist: Philippe Katerine
On the impetus of his crazy peplum album confessions Released this fall, the artist, very offbeat in French song, was therefore crowned best male artist. “A month ago, I thought Philippe, you suck as a singer,” said the artist when he received his award. 20 minutes returns for you and in pictures on the career of this unclassifiable singer.
Female artist: Clara Luciani
We bet on Angèle … But it was Clara Luciani who was crowned female artist of the year. “When you relentlessly believe in your dreams, they come true,” said the Martigues native, a little surprised to receive her award. Carla Luciani, who held on, had a little message on this Valentine’s evening…

Revelation album: Loopholes of Apple
Loopholes, a little gem of emotion, is the young singer’s second album. The texts of this great fan of the poet Paul Eluard and the singer Barbara hide nothing about his cracks, doubts, injuries. “This album helped me to accept myself” she explained when receiving her Victory, before concluding by quoting Léonard Cohen: “there is a flaw in everything, and it is through that that enters the light “.

album: Soul fifties by Alain Souchon
This is the 10th victory won by this eternal dreamy 75-year-old dandy. As usual, behind the elegance of the melodies, bundled with his sons Pierre and Charles, hides a certain gravity, like these young men sent yesterday to Algeria to wage war, or the social elevator broken down today ‘hui …
