Lately, Dany Brillant has been very discreet. Despite an album released in 2024, called Seventies, or even a show at the Olympia on February 15, the 60-year-old singer no longer posted publications on his Instagram account.

But since March and a video of “(his) fiancé” on which we see a woman giving an impressive demonstration of ballroom dancing, the performer of the hit Suzette no longer gave any news to Internet users. This Friday, June 19, Nathalie Moury’s ex-companion made a comeback on Instagram. The opportunity for him to announce big news to his fans who were impatient to see him again.
Why has Dany Brillant remained silent for months?
In a video on Instagram, Dany Brillant finally revealed the reason for his silence on social networks. “I wanted to give you some news, it’s been a long time since I communicated on the networks for a simple reason which is that I wrote my first novel called Paris Never Dies. It took me a year to write it. I concentrated, I wrote it while I was on tour“, he explained, while his book will be released on September 16 by Éditons du Rocher. The realization of a dream for the singer who has arranged to meet his future readers soon in literary salons to discuss his work of which he is very proud and to which “(he) has been thinking for a very long time”.
What is the pitch of Dany Brillant’s book, Paris Never Dies?
With his first novel, Dany Brillant does not leave the universe that made him successful. The singer explained that the story took place in 1944, after the Second World War. “After 5 years of horrible period, there are two districts vying for the spotlight in Paris: Pigalle and Saint-Germain-des-Près. Pigalle is the district of pleasure and debauchery, and Saint-Germain-des-Près is the district of the spirita-t-il confié. And the story will begin when a gangster’s son – since Pigalle is run by the mafia – who must take over his father’s business. One day, he arrives in Saint-Germain-des-Prés and he discovers another life, another world. He discovers love because he will fall in love with a young woman called Juliette, who is a philosophy student, and who will introduce him to everything he did not know, that is to say jazz, music, philosophy. And he will change path. He decides to change his life and move towards the light, towards the spirit, towards poetry, towards song. So this novel is the tug of war of this hero. So , it’s a somewhat French West Side Storywith a backdrop of jazz and Latin music“. A pitch that already delights its audience.
