Brigitte is the woman in plural) In popular culture *English version of "Oh la la" was used for a Lancôme advertisement. *"La Poudrière" was used as soundtrack for a short directed by Aurélie Saada for Vogue Eyewear.Archived aGhostarchiveand thWayback Machine Discography Albums EPs Singles *Did not appear in the official Belgian Ultratop 50 charts, but rather in the bubbl ...
