# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Isabelle Geneviève Marie Anne Gall was born on 9 October 1947 and took the stage name France Gall as a yé-yé singer in the 1960s. In 1965, at seventeen, she won the tenth Eurovision Song Contest representing Luxembourg with "Poupée de cire, poupée de son" — a triumph that could have frozen her in time. Instead she kept moving, eventually partnering with singer-songwriter Michel Berger, whom she married in 1976. Their collaboration produced her biggest hits: "Il jouait du piano debout", "Ella, elle l'a", "Évidemment" — songs that carried her far past the bubblegum beginning. She died on 7 January 2018.
