French singer and actor Françoise Hardy, known for her hit songs and roles in films like 'Grand Prix,' has died at the age of 80. Her son announced the news on social media, mentioning her battle with cancer. Hardy, who rose to fame in the 1960s with songs like 'Tous les garçons et les filles,' was a key figure in the 'yé-yé' movement and one of the best-selling French recording artists. Despite her success in Europe and Canada, she never charted in the U.S. but was ranked as one of the greatest singers of all time by Rolling Stone. Hardy also had a career in film and writing, and was married to fellow singer Jacques Dutronc.
