Magali Noëlle Guiffray (27 June 1931 – 23 June 2015), better known as Magali Noël, was a French actress and singer.

Biography

Born in İzmir to French parents in the diplomatic service, she left Turkey for France in 1951, and her acting career began soon thereafter.[1]

She acted in multilingual cinema chiefly from 1951 to 1980, appearing in three Italian films directed by Federico Fellini,[2] for whom she was a favorite performer and known as his muse. [1] [3] She took on a new dimension by embodying one of the symbols of Federico Fellini's sexual fantasies in La dolce vita (1960), Satyricon (1969), and Amarcord (1973), where she plays Gradisca, provincial pin-up.[4]

She acted in films directed by Costa Gavras, Jean Renoir and Jules Dassin. Her career extended to television movies from roughly 1980 to 2002.[1]

Her recording career began in France in 1956, and her most famous song was "Fais-moi mal, Johnny" ("Hurt me Johnny"), written by Boris Vian.[5] This song was one of the first rock 'n' roll songs with French lyrics. It was censored from the radio due to its risqué lyrics.[1] [3]

She died on 23 June 2015, four days before her 84th birthday.[1][6]
