Marc Herrand, last member of the Compagnon de la Chanson, french boysband founded in 1941, has died at 98. He was the last original member of the band.
Here with Piaf in 1946

 


That article says there is one member still alive – Michel Cassez, who is 92 later this year.

Does this mean that I can read French better than you?

You're right, Cassez is still alive, but Herrand was the last one standing from the original group. Cassez joined the group in 1971, long after the band was formed. 

I spend too much time here, I forgot how to read french excusez moi !

She should have been in the French speaking deathlist, but in France unfortunately, she is not well-known...

She was quite controversial and made a lot of bad buzz when she refused trans women participation in the Miss France contest. She was quite conservative and was quite a joke for people around me. Still she was inimitable.

Yes,  regarless of your opinion about what she has done and said in the past. She was still iconic.
