Serge Lama is celebrating his 82nd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer Serge Lama (Je t'aime, Je suis malade, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 82nd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Lama, a cultural icon

Born Serge Chauvier in Bordeaux on February 11, 1943, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Lama's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Serge hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Serge Lama as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 82.

Happy Birthday, Serge, you're the best!
