Plastic Bertrand is one of the most popular and richest Singer who was born on February 24, 1954 in Brussels, Belgium. Roger Francois Jouret (born 24 February 1954 in Brussels, Belgium) is a Belgian musician and songwriter. He is also an editor, producer, editor, television presenter and is best known for his 1978 hit single “Ca plan pour moi”.

He lived in Milan from 1982 to 1985, where millions of Italians followed him in a photo-story in which he was the main character. He recorded Abbacadabra with Daniel Balavoine, ABBA’s AnniFrid Lyngstad and ABBA’s Anni -Frid Lyngstad. This was a musical tale suitable for children. He appeared in films such as Legitime Violence, and the short film Baoum in the 1980s. He wrote many film scores with Vladimir Cosma (Asterix Versus Caesar), and worked closely with Vladimir Cosma.

In 1987 he represented Luxembourg in the Eurovision Song Contest with the song “Amour Amour”. This failed to impress the juries, however, scoring only 4 points and placing 21st out of 22 entries.

During the 1990s Bertrand explored other facets of music, including songwriting and producing, and also recorded the album Suite Diagonal for Sony in 1994 with Jacques Lanzmann. Forming the company MMD with Pierrette Broodthaers, he produced two albums for David Janssen, an album of classical music with a Turkish contemporary influence for harpsichord and organ with Leila Pinar, an album of traditional Balkan music with the Kazansky choir, and a single for Noël Godin, “Chantilly c’est parti”. Bertrand’s track “Stop ou Encore” (the voice on the tape is actually Lou Deprijck’s voice) featured prominently in the 1999 film Three Kings.

Bertrand, twenty years after the release of “Ca plane pour moi”, returned to the public’s attention when MTV named him the “most desired comeback artist”. Bertrand made a guest appearance in the album Get Ready! and rerecorded “Stop ou encore”, a 1982 Belgian hit. Bertrand handled the remastering and released a “best of” album in 1998 on Universal-AMC.

He splits his time between rehearsals and concerts, study at the Conservatory and stage management at the Theatre des Galeries. The first of their two albums, Hubble Bubble, was released in 1978. Jouret is the singer, songwriter and drummer of the band “Roger Junior”. The group was disbanded when the bass player, who had been returning from rehearsals, was injured in an accident.

Plastic Bertrand began his solo career in 1977 as the credited artist for the international hit single “Caplan pour moi”, but the song was actually sung by Lou Deprijck and Phil Delire, an engineer at RKM/Vogue in Brussels. Plastic Bertrand only received 0.5% of the song’s royalties. Deprijck had collaborated with Elton Motello, aka Alan Ward, to write English lyrics for the song and record it as “Jet Boy, Jet Girl” a few months prior.

“Ça plane pour moi” is featured in the 1985 picture National Lampoon’s European Vacation, in Danny Boyle’s 2010 film 127 Hours, in 2011 as the opening title theme for Jackass 3.5 (2011), in the 2012 film Ruby Sparks, in the 2013 film The Wolf of Wall Street, and in the trailer for the 2018 film Super Troopers 2.
