Yvette Guilbert was one of the most famous singers of the French music-halls during the Belle Époque. Emma Guilbert, who later became Yvette Guilbert, came from a very poor Parisian family. Guilbert's mother worked in a boutique and her father liked to gamble and attend the cafe-concerts. The young girl used to go with her father and dreamed of a life in show-business, singing and acting. When she was 16, Guilbert began working for the Printemps department store in Paris as a model. She also went to singing and acting lessons. Her ambition soon paid off. The beautiful red-head achieved her lucky break when she met Charles Zidler, the impresario of the French music halls, who later became the director of the Moulin-Rouge.
