Julien Lepers

Julien Lepers (whose real name is Ronan Gerval Lepers) is a French television and radio presenter, and a singer-songwriter, born on 12 August 1949 in Paris. Son of the conductor Raymond Lepers and the singer Maria Rémusat, and grandson of the painter Claude Rémusat, Lepers was born in Paris but spent his childhood in Antibes, then in Saint-Dié-des-Vosges. He studied law at the University of Nice Sophia Antipolis, and became licentiate. Lepers won a presenter contest organised by Jean-Pierre Foucault at the radio station RMC where he became a radio host, from 1973 to 1978. There, he was Mister Hit parade before moving to RTL. In the eighties, Lepers was the host for a year of À tout cœur, an entertainment programme broadcast by the Swiss TV channel TSR, which featured famous singers. He debuted as a television host in France in 1986, at the age of 36, on FR3 in La Nouvelle Affiche, and then in the breakfast television show Télématin on Antenne 2. From November 1988 until February 2016, Lepers hosted Questions pour un champion, the French version of the game show Going for Gold. In August 1998, Lepers also hosted C'est l'été on France 3. In 1978 and 1979, Lepers recorded four songs: "De retour de vacances", "Je t'aime trop", "Pleure sous la pluie" and "Oh! Sylvie". As a self-taught pianist, keen on music, he is the composer of three hits by French singer, Herbert Léonard: "Pour le plaisir" in 1981, "Amoureux fous" (duet with Julie Pietri) in 1983, and "Flagrant délit" (which became a number-one hit in Quebec) in 1985. He has also written many songs for Sylvie Vartan, Michel Delpech and Sheila. In June 1996, he recorded an album with the Bratislava Symphonic Orchestra. In parallel with his television career, he continues his career as a musician. On 4 January 1994, Lepers, suspected of tax avoidance, was given a one-year suspended prison sentence as well as a fine of 150,000 French francs. As a consequence, French presenter Vincent Perrot replaced him as host of Questions pour un champion for a few days. On 15 April 2010, in Cyril Hanouna's show Touche pas à mon poste! aired on France 4, he said that the tax officials made a mistake, were aware of it, and refunded him soon after the sentence. In 2009, Lepers appeared in a radio advertisement for Saint-Yorre, a brand of bottled mineral water. In September 2010, in an interview with French newspaper Le Figaro, Lepers says he would enjoy being a news anchor for France 3. "I would enjoy presenting a news programme . It would interest me, and reading a teleprompter is not exactly rocket science! But currently, I also really like economics programmes and, of course, music programmes. In any case, I'm still touring France, Belgium and Switzerland with my orchestra, and composing songs." In August 2011, Lepers was a jury member for the "Prix Iznogoud" award of the "Humour et Eau Salée" French comedy festival held in Saint-Georges-de-Didonne. In November 2011, irritated by the misuse of the French language, Lepers published a book with the title Les fautes de Français? Plus jamais! (French mistakes? Never again!) in which he says: "Wrong notes offend my ears. They annoy me. A mistake in French has the same effect on me as a wrong note." ...
