The event is eagerly awaited by many singers. Every winter, for 40 years now, the industry has been presenting awards to artists from the world of variety music.
The Victoires de la Musique were first held in 1985, at the instigation of Claude Fléouter, Denys Limon and Pascale Tardy, and the then Minister of Culture and Communication, Jack Lang. That same year, Jeanne Mas won the Female Performer of the Year award, while Michel Jonasz took the Male Performer prize. In subsequent years, Catherine Lara, Jean-Jacques Goldman, Johnny Hallyday, France Gall, Mylène Farmer, Vanessa Paradis, Patrick Bruel, Alain Bashung, -M-, Renaud, Zazie, Florent Pagny , Benjamin Biolay and Pomme all won prizes.
