Asked regarding Johnny Hallyday, Herbert Leonard did not mince words regarding his complicated friendship with the singer. The 78-year-old artist was visiting Jordan de Luxe and revealed the background of his thoughts on the Taulier, who passed away on December 5, 2017.
“Johnny wasn’t very good at friendship!” admitted Herbert Leonard. “I was taken down on social networks, but I experienced it, it’s true, one day he takes me to RTL, and there passes Gilbert Montagné”.
The singer of “Sunlights of the tropics” then launched: “He left me for Gilbert!”
When Johnny Hallyday ended their friendship, Herbert claims to have “never seen him once more”. For Herbert Léonard, his friendship with the artist was therefore not very rosy.
“Johnny was not faithful in friendship and it is true!” he added.
Herbert also spoke regarding his health and admitted to having been close to death in the past because of his cigarette smoking.
“I developed a serious lung infection. I had a 32-day coma, I was totally disabled and I mightn’t move,” he said.
