Biography
Amaury Vassili Chotard was born in Rouen, Upper Normandy, and began singing around the age of 9 years, enrolled by his mother at a musical school in Rouen, created by Albert and Elizabeth Amsallem. At 14, Vassili competed in his first singing contest, where he won in singing "Amsterdam" by Jacques Brel (an idol of Vassili). In Vassili's second contest, in front of a full house, he sang "Les Lacs du Connemara" by Michel Sardou; however he did not qualify for the final, despite receiving a standing ovation from the crowd. During the contest, his mother realised how much he enjoyed being on the stage and especially the impact he had on the public, saying "C'est son truc !" ("it's his thing!").
In 2004, Vassili took first place in the Coupe de France de la chanson française.
He became famous with his debut album, VinceròVinceròSpotify (search)YouTube Music (search)Tracklist · 12 tracks1Vincerò3:382Parla più piano3:143Lucente stella4:044Io ti amerò3:525Fragile3:376L'amore3:137Un angelo3:368Con tutto il cuore3:509Who Wants to Live Forever3:4110Parla mi d'amore3:4311Per te3:2412Hallelujah6:12 (2009), which went double platinum (over 250,000 copies) after a worldwide release.

Vassili describes his music style as "lyrical pop".
Eurovision Song Contest 2011
On 27 January 2011, it was announced by the French broadcaster France Télévisions that Vassili would be the French entry at the Eurovision Song Contest 2011 to be held in Düsseldorf, Germany. The song was revealed as "Sognu", and was performed in Corsican. It marks the second French Eurovision entry to be performed in the language after Patrick Fiori received fourth place with "Mama Corsica" in 1993.
Vassili eventually placed 15th with 82 points.
Post-Eurovision to present
Vassili was the spokesperson for France during the Eurovision Song Contest 2012 and presented the country's voting results.
He participated on the French version of the Masked Singer as Turtle and became the first male contestant to win the show.
