Carole Laure is celebrating her 78th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed singers of her generation.

Popular singer-actress-director-screenwriter-producer Carole Laure (Maria Chapdelaine, Get Out Your Handkerchiefs, The Threat, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 78th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Laure, a cultural icon

Born Carole Champagne in Shawinigan on August 5, 1948, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in history. Laure's not just a great singer, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Carole hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Carole Laure as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 78.

Happy Birthday, Carole, you're the best!
