The Enduring Charm of BB: Captivating the World as an Actress, Singer, and Woman

In the 1960s, Brigitte Bardot burst onto the French film scene like a comet. Her initials, BB (Bébé), became synonymous with a new era. She shattered conventional notions of womanhood, embodying a free-spirited lifestyle not only as an actress and singer but as a woman. Even 40 years after her retirement, she continues to garner fervent support from younger generations of women, regaining attention as a legendary fashion icon. This BB
turned 80 on September 28th of this year and is passionately pursuing her second act in life.

As if to celebrate this milestone, her first collection of famous quotes, "Brigitte Bardot: 60 Words to Master Womanhood" (PHP Bunko), and the DVD of "Le Ciel est à vous" (IVC), a film celebrating her as a fashion icon, have recently been released.


To celebrate BB's 80th birthday and the release of related books and DVDs, a talk event featuring Terumi Takano, author of "Brigitte Bardot: 60 Words to Master Womanhood" and a film producer/cinema essayist, and Masaya Nakahara, a novelist/musician, will be held at Daikanyama Tsutaya Books on Friday, October 24th. This event aims to explore the multifaceted charm of BB, who continues to shine, with a particular focus on Brigitte Bardot during her acting career.

Furthermore, on Thursday, October 30th, a screening of Brigitte Bardot's film "Le Ciel est à vous" will be held at Institut Français Tokyo in Iidabashi, Tokyo, followed by a talk event. Takano and Nakahara will also speak after the film screening.

Don't miss this opportunity to gain insights into living freely and authentically at any age, through the words and images of the timeless "legendary actress."
