Graziella de Michele is a French singer-songwriter (born in Lyon) famous for her 1987 single "Le Pull-over blanc", which was a top three hit on the SNEP singles chart[1] and achieved Silver status.[2] The song was first covered by Arno Hintjens in 1990, then by Alexandre Balduzzi and Nolwenn Leroy in 2003 on Star Academy 2's album Fait sa boum.[3] De Michele's next singles passed unnoticed and therefore the singer can be considered as a one-hit wonder.[4]
