Louise Bourgoin (French: [buʁgwɛ̃]; born Ariane Louise Bourgoin, 28 November 1981) is a French actress.
Bourgoin was born on 28 November 1981 in Rennes. [1] Bourgoin's parents, both secondary level teachers, encouraged her to pursue a stable career. She studied for five years at the École des Beaux-Arts in Rennes. [2] She became a plastic arts teacher [3] [4] while simultaneously beginning to work as a model; some of her most notable early work as a model was for the photographer Ian Sanderson. [1]
After graduating in 2004, Bourgoin became a presenter for the television program Kawaï ! on Filles TV channel. Two years later, she made a brief appearance on Direct 8. [1] At the same time, she worked with TV presenter Marc Lacombe on a pilot program for PlayStation TV. This television channel never started broadcasting, and the pilot was never distributed. [5]
In 2006, she worked as the weather girl for Le Grand Journal with Michel Denisot, which broadcast nightly on Canal+. To avoid audiences confusing her for fellow Le Grand Journal presenter, Ariane Massenet, Bourgoin selected the pseudonym of "Salomé". As this was rejected by Canal +[ citation needed], she chose the name "Louise Bourgoin" as a tribute to her favorite sculptor, Louise Bourgeois. [2]
In 2007 she was offered a role in a film, playing a television weather girl in The Girl From Monaco. [6] Subsequently, she played in several films including The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec directed by Luc Besson and Black Heaven directed by Gilles Marchand, a film that was screened Out of Competition at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival. [2]
In December 2015, it was announced that Bourgoin and electronic musician Tepr were expecting their first child. [7] Bourgoin gave birth to her son, Étienne, on 7 April 2016 by the musician Tepr. [8] In 2020, she gave birth to a second boy by the musician Tepr. [9]
