On Tuesday, November 10, 2026, singer Michèle Torr appeared on the set of Tele Matin to present her new song, 'Un dernier soir', and discuss her career. During the interview with Agathe Lecaron's chronicaels, she revealed a strict rule she imposed on her close relatives before her concerts: she does not want her family or close friends in the audience. She explained that she still feels uncomfortable singing in front of them, recalling how she once forbade her mother from attending her first performance at the Olympia when she was 17 years old and opening for Claude François.

Torr expressed deep regret for having excluded her mother from that show, hoping that her mother disobeyed and was actually in the crowd. The loss became permanent shortly after; her mother, Clémence Torr, died in a car accident in December 1965, when Michèle was just 18 years old. The car involved was one her daughter had recently bought for her. Torr admitted that she does not know how to mourn properly and still talks to her mother daily, seeking advice or questioning her presence on stage when she feels fear or stage fright. [1]
