The 2009 Winners
"I am delighted to join Arsène Wenger in the Français of the Year hall of fame. I am very grateful to all those who voted for me and hope to continue entertaining them both with the Blues and the Bleus.”
Nicolas Anelka
"I am delighted and honoured to win this incredible award. I have always held France very close to my heart, despite being a UK resident. For instance I always show my collections in my native country. As everyone knows, us French are sometimes considered too proud but winning "Français of the Year", I think makes me justifiably so!"
Roland Mouret
"During my many years in England, I have enjoyed sharing and expressing my French culture through my cuisine. I am pleased that I have been recognised by my fellow French compatriots for this award."
Raymond Blanc
"I am proud, as a Frenchman, to have played a part in re-establishing Liberty, one of the best loved British luxury brands, as the ultimate curator and incubator of avant-garde English and exotic talent in Fashion, Design and Beauty. Liberty has now swung back to near profitability by reconnecting to its roots of Love, Rebellion and Artistic Discovery."
Geoffroy de la Bourdonnaye
