Chantal Goya in 1966

Chantal Goya, born June 10, 1946 in Saigon (French Indochina), is a French singer and actress.

Chantal Goya started her career as a French New Wave actress. For instance, she had a starring role as Madeleine in the 1966 Jean-Luc Godard film Masculin, féminin.

She abandoned this acting career to become mostly known as a singer for children, especially little girls; the pink colour is omnipresent in her world. Together with her husband, songwriter and composer Jean-Jacques Debout, and with a small team of designers and costume people, she does shows for and with children. The main themes are dreams and traveling. Her usual character is Marie-Rose, a mix between a maid and an older sister, reminiscent of Julie Andrews in both The Sound of Music and Mary Poppins.

Not surprisingly, Chantal is considered a gay icon in France.
