French Female Vocalist Jazz Blues Suggestions ???

How about an American who grew up in Paris...Madeline Peyroux. A great jazzy singer/songwriter who has carefully put together only 2 releases in 8 years. Each is worth the wait.
If you like Billie Holiday's voice, you'll probably be enchanted w/Madeline Peyroux. Cheers,
Spencer

French-Canadian jazz singer Madeleine Peyroux. Her album, "Careless Love" is excellent.

Oops. Sbank is correct - Madeleine Peyroux is American, not French-Canadian.

For Pop, don't pass up Lara Fabian. She truly is excellent, and so too are many of the recordings.

She has offerings in 3 other languages as well, including English. Lara is huge in Europe, and is deserving of the accolades. She's pretty easy on the eyes too.
