Grégory Lemarchal was a French singer who rose to fame after winning the fourth season of the reality TV show "Star Academy France" in 2004. Born on May 13, 1983, in La Tronche, Isère, France, Lemarchal captivated audiences with his angelic voice and charismatic presence on stage. Despite battling cystic fibrosis, a genetic disorder that affects the lungs and digestive system, he pursued his passion for music with remarkable dedication and spirit.

Lemarchal's debut album, "Je deviens moi," released in 2005, quickly went platinum in France, establishing him as a prominent figure in the French music scene. His soulful and emotive performances were a testament to his undeniable talent and determination. Grégory's posthumous releases, including "La Voix D'Un Ange" and "Olympia 2006," only served to solidify his enduring legacy in the hearts of fans. His music and memory live on through his foundation, the Association Grégory Lemarchal, which continues to raise awareness and funds for cystic fibrosis. The biographical television film “Pourquoi je vis” pays tribute to his life and career, celebrating the profound impact he had on French music before his tragic and untimely death on April 30, 2007, at the age of just 23.
