Charlotte Gainsbourg

Charlotte Gainsbourg is a British-French singer and actress best known for her role in the film ‘La Bûche.’ She is the daughter of French singer cum songwriter Serge Gainsbourg and British actress Jane Birkin. Although she is better recognized as an accomplished actress than as a musician, her singing career is also praiseworthy. At 12 years old, Gainsbourg made her musical debut and later recorded ‘Charlotte for Ever,’ an album of tracks written by her father. The daughter-father duo then went to release a number of songs that were well-received by the audience. She began her acting career with a string of movies including ‘L'Effrontee,’ ‘La Petite Voleuse’ and ‘Merci la Vie.’ Gainsbourg concentrated more on her acting career during the 1990s, performing in several hits such as the flick ‘La Buche,’ for which she garnered a Cesar award for Best Supporting Actress. On a personal note, the London-born artiste has witnessed many ups and downs in her early life due to her parents’ troubled relationship and separation. At present, she is in a long-time relationship with Yvan Attal.
