Junior Eurovision 2025 France profile: 'Ce monde' by Lou Deleuze

Flying the tricolour for France at Junior Eurovision 2025 in Tbilisi is Lou Deleuze with her song 'Ce monde'.

You can find details on the entry, the artist, and France's history at Junior Eurovision below.

About the artist: Lou Deleuze

Born into a musical Parisian family, Lou has been surrounded by music since she was born and has sung since she was two years old. Her father is a luthier - an artisan specialising in the manufacture of string instruments - and Lou has been quick to follow in her family's musical footsteps.

Most notably, Lou has appeared on Season 19 of the popular talent show La France a un incroyable talent (the French version of the "Got Talent" franchise), where she made it through the audition process but unfortunately was not selected to progress to the quarter finals.

Lou has also appeared as an actress in a number of recent films in France against high-profile performers such as Sandrine Kiberlain and Vincent Lacoste, including Le rendez-vous de l'ete, Le parfum vert and Maldoror.

About the song: 'Ce monde'

Ce monde is written by rising French popstar Linh, who has independently had recent French chart success with her ABBA-esque pop ballad Je pense à vous - a song with 50 million streams on Spotify.

The song is a lilting French-language ballad of a kind that fans will be familiar with from France's recent entries at the main Eurovision event - think Edith Piaf, Barbara Pravi or Slimane. In the lyrics, Lou seems to be singing to the adults around her not to hide the dangers of the world from her, and dreaming of better days in the future.

The song is an emotionally mature and polished piece of work and will have no problems standing out on the Junior Eurovision stage.

France in the Eurovision Song Contest

Since their return to Junior Eurovision in 2018, France has been the indisputable powerhouse of Junior Eurovision, with a track record anyone would be envious of.

They made their debut at the second ever Junior Eurovision Song Contest in 2004, where they came sixth with Thomas Pontier's 'Si on voulait bien'. Following this one entry, they withdrew from the competition and did not return until 2018. Since then, though, they have never finished lower than fifth!

Most notably, they have won three of the last four Junior Eurovision crowns - first for 2020's 'J'imagine', performed by Valentina; second for 2022's 'Oh Maman !' performed by Lissandro; and third for last year's winner Zoé Clauzure with her song "Coeur". This puts them only one win behind Ireland's record of winning four out of five consecutive contests at the main Eurovision event. France also did a spectacular job hosting the 2021 contest in Paris and the 2023 contest in Nice.

We will see in December whether Lou can keep up this fantastic record!
