Stephane Laporte: It’s Like All the Lights in My Heart Are Turning On

Dodo opens her arms to me and I hug her, smiling with happiness.

Stéphane Laporte recently shared a tender, affectionate message in which he pays a heartfelt tribute to his dear friend Dominique Michel. With warm words, he highlights her birthday, expressing the esteem and love he holds for her.

A touching tribute

On his Facebook page, Stéphane Laporte made a point of marking the 93rd birthday of the great star. In an emotionally charged post, he expresses the admiration he has always felt for Dominique Michel, describing her as one of the most genuine and authentic people he knows.

“Happy 93rd birthday, Dominique! Monday, two days ago, I arrived at Dominique’s, in that apartment on Moi et l’autre, with a view of the river. It was Denise who greeted me, not Filiatrault, no, Dion, her loyal friend, a great soul. Then Dodo opens her arms to me and I hug her, smiling with happiness. Every time I see Dodo, it’s like all the lights in my heart come on. Dodo is the most special of stars, because she is the most normal. She has done it all. She has won it all. She could be a diva. Not at all. She is a couch. You know, the family member you rush to cuddle up with at the end of the couch. With whom you always feel good, always happy. I was seven years old, I watched her in Bye Bye and I loved her. There were many talented artists in the year-end revues, but Quebec’s favorite was her. Because in her eyes there was something unique, something mischievous, something tender and a huge desire to please us, by making us laugh. Pleasing people. This is what she always wants to do, all the time. Through the screen, you could sense how real she was. She was more than a star; she was our friend, for the duration of a show, or a series. And when I had the chance to do Bye Bye with her, to know her in real life, I saw that she was truly real. She was the same woman we imagined on TV, but in 3D. D for Dodo, of course. Three times finer. Three times more tender. Three times funnier. And she became my friend for life. Last Monday, with Denise, Eve, Patrice and Marc-André, we toasted to her 93 light-years. Thank you, Dominique, for brightening our lives. On behalf of all Quebecers, both those in front of their TVs and those in front of your couch, like me two days ago, happy birthday, Dodo, my love! Stéphane,” he states, ending his message as a voice for the heart of all Quebecers.

A wave of love

In the comments, many admirers joined him to mark the singer’s birthday, piling up messages of affection and appreciation for her.

In turn, we extend our most heartfelt wishes: a happy birthday to this remarkable lady! May this new year of life be filled with happiness, health, and endless sweetness.
