Yéyé girls on stage... and backstage

Françoise Hardy never likes to perform on stage, but loves to meet other artists like she did Bob Dylan back in 1967 when he played in Paris (Olympia theater).

When he toured France in the 2000's, Bob Dylan remembered this unique meeting and even asked news about the yéyé girl that he once met in the late 60's (read in Françoise Hardy's autobobiography)
