Sylvie Vartan is celebrating her 80th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed singers of her generation.

Popular singer Sylvie Vartan (Nicolas, Comme un garçon, Quand tu es là, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 80th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Vartan, a cultural icon

Born in Iskretz on August 15, 1944, Sylvie Vartan's career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Vartan'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 Sylvie hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Sylvie Vartan as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 80.

Happy Birthday, Sylvie, you're the best!
