“I owe you the truth, I’ll tell you, because we’re not going to see each other for a while…” Singer Julie Pietri announced on Instagram on Wednesday that she had endometrial cancer. The interpreter of “Eve get up” will have to undergo an intervention on March 7.
In a video posted on social media, the 67-year-old star opened up about her condition, revealing she was ‘not doing very well’ and had ‘a racing heart’, but described herself as ‘combative’ and decided to go “to the end of the fight”. For this, she asks for the support of her fans: “I need your support and maybe we can fight together”.
Like Florent Pagny, who had cast a chill a year ago by announcing on social networks that he had a lung tumor, the singer revealed the sad news directly to her fans because she did not want “that someone else takes over this » topic.

In her video, Julie Pietri promised to “come back on stage” after her operation.
