Sabine Paturel (born 19 September 1965) is a French singer and actress.
Paturel was born in Toulon, and has three sisters.
In 1986, her first single "Les Bêtises" (French, "stupid things") stayed for 30 weeks in the French singles chart (Top 50) from March to October 1986, peaking at #2 for several weeks and achieving Gold status. In 1987, she released her second single, "P'tit Bouchon", which reached #13.
At the same time, she took lessons in comedy with Jean-Laurent Cochet, which allowed her to start an acting career in theater.
