At only 27 years old, Christine and The Queens became one of the most popular singers and the fourth best-selling artist in France in 2015. With 380,000 copies sold last year and 540,000 since the release of her debut album “Chaleur Humaine” in spring 2014, young Héloïse Létissier has become a true icon.

Both unique and popular, she successfully builds bridges between pop and electronic music, young generation and seniors, niche audiences and the general public. Outspoken, she doesn’t hesitate to express herself on issues close to her heart (marriage equality, freedom of expression, racism, refugees…) without being divisive.

From Nantes to the theater stages of ENS Lyon and through London, the hypnotic artist has built a singular persona whose image she perfectly controls, opening the doors to the American market—a privilege few French stars can boast of. How can we explain the CATQ mystery? What are the keys to her meteoric success and popularity?
