The uncle of Didier Payne, the mother's brother, who is a famous French actor, was also related to the television screen. Vanessa has a younger sister, Alisson Paradis, who also became an actress. Both girls from an early age were fond of music and dancing. It was her uncle who insisted that Vanessa try her hand at television.

The creative biography of the artist began early. The girl turned 7 years old when she took part in the popular TV show "School of Fans", performing a song from the musical "Emilie Joly". The audience received her very warmly, the audience applauded a lot. This success strengthened Vanessa's desire to become a famous singer. Paradis began to study with professional vocal teachers and after 7 years she declared herself.

In 1987, Vanessa Paradis recorded the song "Joe le Taxi", which a week after its release topped the French charts, and after 2 weeks it became the best song in all European charts. The success of the composition was so deafening that from a simple popular song “Joe le Taxi” it turned into a classic of pop music. The girl starred in a music video for this song, in which she sang next to a yellow taxi car.

A year later, the debut album of the young singer "M&J" arrives on store shelves, which, following the sales results, becomes platinum in 8 months. In addition to the world hit “Joe le Taxi”, the rhythmic romantic composition “Maxou” and the title song “Marilyn et John”, dedicated to Marilyn Monroe and John F. Kennedy, are worth noting.

The second album "Variations Sur Le Même T'aime", released in 1990, was produced by Serge Gainsbourg. 2 compositions from it got into the top ten songs - the lyrical ballad "Dis-lui toi que je t'aime" and reminiscent of the funky style "Tandem".

The next disc appeared 2 years later and was named after the singer - “Vanessa Paradis”. The famous musician Lenny Kravitz participated in the work on this disc. Perhaps that is why the album was the first and at the moment the only one entirely in English. Three songs became hits: the opening album "Natural high" and the dance songs "Sunday Mondays" and "Be My Baby".

After the release of the disc, Vanessa Paradis went on a long world tour, the result of which was not only the significantly increased popularity of the singer, but also the release of an album with recordings from live concerts "Vanessa Paradis Live". Then the fans had to wait long enough for new songs performed by their favorite singer.

Only in 2000 the album "Bliss" appeared. Unfortunately, he could not repeat the furor of the first three studio recordings. Only the song "Commando" hit the charts, although the disc itself was a commercial success both at home and in Belgium and Switzerland.

But the album “Divinidylle”, released 7 years later, returned Paradis to the musical elite. The songs "Divine idylle", "Dès que je te vois" and "L'incendie" became members of all French-language charts, and the album itself was named the best in France and Belgium. This success allowed Vanessa to receive the Victoires de la Musique award as the best singer of the year.

The next studio album "Love songs", released again after a long hiatus - in 2013, became very successful. This double disc contains 22 compositions on the theme of romantic relationships, about which Vanessa sings from all sorts of points of view. These songs are personal, however three of them have won the highest places in the charts. It is the title track "Love song" as well as "Les Espaces et les sentiments" and "Mi amor". The album peaked at number one in France and Belgium, and also entered the top five in Switzerland.

In addition to studio discs, Paradis has released several official collections of the best songs and live albums, and also participated in the recording of two soundtracks. In 2004, Vanessa sang the song Ma Petroleuse for The Atomic Circus: The Return of James Buttle with The Little Rabbits.

And in 2011 in the cartoon "Monster in Paris", in which the singer voiced the main character, a young cabaret performer Lucille, who does not want to marry for convenience, many songs were sung by Paradis. One of them, "La Seine" - "Sena" in Russian translation, became popular and brought celebrities the Cesar film award for the best performance of a song for an animated film.

Vanessa Paradis made her film debut in 1989, at the age of 17. It was the film "White Wedding", in which the girl plays the main female role. For her, Paradis received her first award - "Cesar" - as the best debutante. But due to the abundance of erotic scenes, a wave of negative reviews from the female part of the public flooded the underage actress, and Vanessa chose to take a break from her career as an actress.

Only 7 years later, Paradis returned to the set and starred in the film Elisa, in which the famous French actor Gerard Depardieu became Vanessa's partner. This was followed by a series of comedic roles, among which it is worth highlighting the romantic fantasy tape "Witchcraft Love", the comedy thriller "One Chance for Two" and the tragicomedy "Girl on the Bridge". In these paintings, Paradis partners were such world stars as Jean Reno, Jean-Paul Belmondo, Alain Delon and Daniel Auteuil.

The filmography of Vanessa Paradis is replenished irregularly - the singer interrupted filming for the sake of world tours in support of her records. In addition, some films have not been very successful. In the new millennium, it is worth highlighting only the work in the romantic comedy "Heartbreaker", as well as the role of Jacqueline in the joint Canadian-French drama "Café de Flore".

In addition to Vanessa, the main cast included the director of the film John Turturro, as well as Woody Allen, Sharon Stone and Sofia Vergara. In 2014, a new job in cinema for the artist was shooting in the film "Pretty Women in Paris". In this tape, Isabelle Adjani and Laetitia Casta played along with Paradis.

On July 29, 2016 the world premiere of the comedy horror film directed by Kevin Smith "The Yoganuts" took place. Vanessa played a minor role as a history teacher. The film also starred Johnny Depp, who played the role of Guy Lapointe, an evil hunter from Montreal.

Kevin Smith's daughter Harley Quinn Smith and Vanessa Paradis and Johnny Depp's daughter Lily-Rose Depp played the main roles of two schoolgirls who are fond of yoga, want to have a party, but stumble upon a universal evil that creeps out of the ground.

The film was the second feature in Smith's Canadian Trilogy. The tape caused mixed reviews from viewers. Some were outraged that stellar parents allowed their young daughters to play vulgar and sexually explicit scenes in a comedy picture. Others expressed confidence that the absence of such prohibitions is considered a sign of harmonious relations between parents and children.

In May 2017, there were two premieres with Vanessa Paradis in the title role. On May 14, the French comedy "Dog" was released. This is a film about the hero Jacques, who survived a personal tragedy, having lost his loved ones and his job, but thanks to his acquaintance with the owner of a pet shop, he again felt the taste of life.

And on May 25, the premiere of the drama "Hoarfrost" took place, on which Lithuania, Ukraine, France and Poland worked together. "Frost" talks about the war in Donbass. The plot of the film revolves around a group of people heading across the no-man's land to the line of hostilities: humanitarian aid providers, sensation-seeking journalists, companions and sympathizers. Vanessa Paradis played the role of a military international journalist.

Soon, viewers were again able to appreciate the talent of Paradis in the drama "Marilyn". In the film about a young girl who decided to go to the French capital to become an actress, Vanessa played a supporting role.

The artist's first romantic relationship was with her compatriot Florent Pagny, 9 years older, who at the time of their acquaintance was an aspiring singer and actor. The young people have been dating for 3 years since 1988.

During the recording of the third album, Vanessa began an affair with Lenny Kravitz. The couple was together for 5 years, but in 1997 the musicians broke up. The following year, the singer meets the legendary actor Johnny Depp. For a long time they were called the most beautiful couple in show business.

Vanessa and Johnny lived in a de facto marriage for 14 years, in which they had two children - daughter Lily-Rose Melody (1999) and son Jack Christopher, 3 years younger. The gap was loud, but the couple broke up amicably, remaining on friendly terms. After the breakup, the ex-husband bought Vanessa and the children a house in Hollywood.
