Passing_of_BrigitteB

 The death od Brigitte Bardot surprised no one: she was 91 and in and out of the hospital.

France is currently debating whether to put on a special day to mark her passing: she was 

considered 'of the right'. Le monde is following how the world is commenting her death.

Here is my Brigitte moment. I travelled, in my youth, to the South of France. When we reached

St-Tropez, the seaside village where she had a villa, we went for a swim in the municipal

beach area. It was heavenly beautiful. But we never visited the village. I didn't want to spoil it

for her, it was her summer home and I was a lowly tourist. 


This is how I remember her: She celebrated her youth and perfect body with film and music. 

She was not ashamed of her later years with animal activism. She was strong...
