Some exceptions seems to be accepted as long as it involves Wales and France (Wales being Pays de Galles in French).

      She stopped singing when she died a few years ago. That would be quite creepy otherwise.

      She made a career switch from a French singer to a Japanese banker.

    I love France Gall so this is a pretty fun part of the protest.

    If you never heard her, you might recognize this song. I believe the April March (also an incredible artist) cover was in Death Proof and a few other movies or shows.

    And you will also see some post about France - Wales (rugby Union) as Wales is Pays de Galles (Country of Wales) in French and we also call the France - Wales games France - Galles (and Galles and Gall have the same pronunciation in French).

    If the recent French pension protests are any indication, they don’t mess around when it comes to protesting…
