The British singer and actress Jane Birkin has died at the age of 76 in Paris, as reported by the ‘BFMTV’ channel, citing sources from the artist’s environment, noting that the artist, who had been away from the stage for some time due to health problems, she was found dead at her home.

Birkin, who spent almost all of his artistic career in France, had returned to work promptly after suffering a stroke in 2021. In March 2022, his entourage had announced the cancellation for two months of his concerts. However, at the end of May new cancellations arrived.

Born in London on December 14, 1946, Jane Birkin was the daughter of a military man and a famous English actress, Judy Campbell, for which reason she was in direct contact with cinema since childhood. Her first roles were in two award-winning films at the Cannes Film Festival: ‘Le Knack’, by Richard Lester in 1965 and ‘Blow Up’by Michelangelo Antonioni in 1967.

With this experience, in 1968 he decided to settle in France, where he met the singer Serge Gainsbourg, with whom he lived a love story that resulted in some titles that caused a sensation, in particular, the one that has left its mark on the history of song. French: ‘Je t’aime moi non plus’.

In parallel, she continued her acting career, first with rather comic roles, such as in ‘La moutarde me monte au nez’ or ‘La course à l’échalote’. Despite the fact that the Birkin-Gainsbourg couple broke up in 1980, the composer and singer wrote one of her most prestigious albums for her three years later, ‘Baby alone in babylone’for which it was awarded with a gold recordsomething he did again with ‘Arabesque’ in 2002.

However, his health problems forced him to temporarily interrupt his career in 2012 due to acute pericarditis that forced her to rest. In December of the following year, she lost her eldest daughter, Kate, and in 2017 she herself told that she had been treating herself for leukemia.
