Zouzou

Who is Zouzou?

Zouzou is a model, actress, singer and icon of the 1960s and early 1970s. She is known largely for her lead role in Éric Rohmer's Love in the Afternoon. Her career, however, was constantly hampered by her addiction to heroin and other drugs.

The screen name "Zouzou" reportedly stems from her zézaiement of the consonants 's','j' and 'z'.

Her boyfriends during her years of fame included Brian Jones, Michel Taittinger, Dave Davies, Jean-Paul Goude and Jack Nicholson.
