Daft Punk boosts French pride
PARIS (AP) — They’re helmeted, mute and mysterious, and they’re suddenly the pride of France.
Duo Daft Punk did something no other French music group has done: Brought home four Grammy Awards in one night.
Congratulations poured in yesterday from French media, tweeters and bloggers — and even the US Embassy in Paris. “See, France is capable of winning!” said commentator Jean-Jacques Bourdin on BFM-TV.
