Marie-France was hired in 1969 by the Alcazar in the Latin Quarter, where she became as famous a celebrity as Marilyn Monroe. She remained one of the celebrities of that music-hall until 1987. She became a member of FHAR, alongside Guy Hocquenghem. As a member of FHAR, she was interviewed in the magazine "Recherches". She was a member of a small group, the Gazolines, with Hélène Hazera. The two performed in "Les Intrigues de Sylvia Couski" by Adolfo Arrieta. Alain Z. Kan paid tribute to her by naming one of his songs "Marie-France" in 1976. Marie-France was a transsexual, a word that she disliked, maybe because certain television hosts automatically questioned it. "When one has passed onto the other side, why do they keep this title?" she regrets. She appeared as a singer in Barocco by Andre Techine in 1976, where she produced «On se voit se voir», a song written by Philippe Sarde. She pursued her acting career in theater, notably in Le Navire Night by Marguerite Duras in 1979. With the album39 de Fièvre in 1980, through several renditions of sixties pop and written Jean-William Thoury originals and composed by Dynamite Yan or Vincent Palmer, she captured the style of the rock group Bijou. She reappeared in the film Les Innocents, directed by Téchiné in 1987. In 1993, she recorded a revival of Édith Piaf, in a duet with Marc Almond, who rendered two songs to her. Daniel Darc and Mirwais collaborated on her eponymous 1997 album, for which she wrote the lyrics of a few songs herself. Dave then invited her on his album Doux tam tam in 2003. Frédéric Botton wrote several songs for her in 2005. At the end of 2006, Léonard Lasry invited Marie-France to sing a duet entitled "Du désir au bout des doigts" as an homage. This song is featured on the first Léonard Lasry album, Des Illusions . Marie-France also published a duet with Hélèna Noguerra on her last album called "Fraise Vanille" . In 2008, Marie France recorded a rock'n'roll garage album entirely written by Jacques Duvall and composed by Miam Monster Miam. The album is called Phantom feat. Marie France and reminds her fans of the rock'n'roll Marie France of the 1980s.
