Eddy de Pretto, Slimane, Clotilde Courau, Amanda Lear, Mélanie Laurent, Lou Doillon, Zahia Dehar, Gilles Lellouche, Camélia Jordana and Nora Hamzawi were also present. The funds raised are entirely intended for the fight against AIDS in France and internationally.

President of Sidaction, Professor Françoise Barré-Sinoussi, co-discoverer of HIV and Nobel Prize winner in Medicine, estimated that “much remains to be done to obtain remission and a vaccine”, despite treatments allowing people to live with the virus. .

“39 million people live with HIV in the world, 77% of them are on treatment. There is still an important step to take, particularly towards children, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa,” she added.
