Experience the raw emotion and authenticity of “Fille Parfaite”, the extraordinary new visual release by Congolese singer-songwriter Celine Banza! Blending African Folk, acoustic Afro-pop, and soulful storytelling, the RFI Discoveries winner delivers a empowering anthem that rejects unrealistic societal standards of the “perfect woman.” Through her rich, expressive vocals, Celine advocates for radical self-acceptance and genuine love—embracing both her own flaws and those of her partner in their complete truth.
Visually directed by Kévin Still, with stunning cinematography by Lenny Carter and production by Tongolo, the video features a refined artistic aesthetic elevated by painter Satis and stylist JADEUXFOIS. Surrounded by a diverse cast of women, Celine Banza offers a touching, honest, and culturally rich masterpiece that celebrates unapologetic womanhood. A soul-stirring African musical gem you definitely need to watch!
Lyrics:
We can be fragile,
We can be easy,
You have to take us as we are.
You can kiss without fear
My excesses and my curves
That’s how we love.
I’ll be the sweetest,
I’ll be the least jealous,
At least for the honeymoon.
But I couldn’t lie,
Give you the guarantees
That Adam expected from Eve.
I don’t want to take the risk, risk
Of seeing our love disappear,
But too bad if you’re sad, sad
I’m not a perfect girl.
I don’t want to take the risk, risk
Of seeing our love disappear,
But that’s how I exist, exist
I’m not a perfect girl.
I’m going to love your flaws, oh oh,
Your weaknesses, I’ll fix them.
True love is in the details
And I love you in every detail.
I’ll marry your flaws, oh oh,
I’ll fix your weaknesses.
Love, it’s true, is in the details
And I love you in every detail.
Oh oh…
In love, I’m tenacious
That’s my version of courage.
What you call guts,
You too are sometimes bland,
Sometimes you’re a bit pathetic,
But I don’t make a big deal out of it.
But who created this image
Of the ideal woman,
Unhappy and dishonest?
And if you want all women to become irreproachable,
Ask your mother first.
I don’t want to take the risk, the risk
Of seeing our love disappear,
But so what if you’re sad, sad
I’m not a perfect girl.
I don’t want to take the risk, the risk
Of seeing our love disappear,
But that’s how I exist, exist
I’m not a perfect girl.
I’m going to love your flaws, oh oh,
Your weaknesses, I’ll fix them.
True love is in the details
And I love you in all your details.
I’m going to marry your flaws, oh oh,
Your weaknesses, I’ll fix them.
Love, it’s true, is in the details
And I love you in all your details.
Oh oh…
