C'est qui elle ( Chantal pas de E 2e partie)

My God j'ai tellement de plaisir à faire mes petites recherches que je me dois de partager mes trouvailles avec vous...moi qui voulais faire durer le suspense lol!

Bon alors tout d'abord à en voir la photo vous voyez bien que Chantal pas de E à eu un gros hit au début des années 80 avec le duo Voggue avec deux G. Le duo montréalais à eu son heure de gloire grâce à "Dancin' the Night Away" dont je suis à la recherche intensive chers lecteurs. À l'époque son nom était Chantal Condor (d'où la dédicasse douteuse sur la pochette du vinyle ci-desssus). Elle a ensuite changé son nom pour seulement gardé Chantal et a sorti un disque solo qui fut un flop monumental.

J'ai trouvé d'où venait le cash...voici un article passionnant du Toronto Star, je vous en offre un extrait délicieux :

« Who's that girl on the bus?
(...)
Even though she has experience in showbiz, Chamandy was hardly a household face until the ad blitz began. After a short career in the '80s as half of the teenage pop duo Voggue, which was backed by Sony BMG, as Chantal Condor she was nominated for the most promising female vocalist Juno in 1986, before losing and disappearing from view for almost 20 years.

Now she's trying to make a comeback.

Her music could be described as dance-pop with a world-beat flavour, but like many independent artists, Chamandy doesn't fit what a big-label-backed star is expected to be – edgy, belly-baring.

But she refuses to toil in obscurity just because no one big will back her.

In addition to joining the throngs of aspiring artists who launch themselves on MySpace and produce their own records on personal computers, Chamandy hatched a business plan last year.

It included selling her single "Feels Like Love," for a buck at Dollaramas, to capitalize on consumers' desire to buy songs for a dollar, as they can do on iTunes. Her hus band Greg, her manager, reports that the single went platinum, selling more than 10,000 copies in Canada; it's now sold in stores across the country, including HMV.

With Greg as owner of fledgling label Ninemuse Productions, and friends as financial backers, she's made her own opportunity to break onto the scene. Ninemuse has spent $500,000 putting Chamandy out there.»
