Chantal Ladesou (born 5 May 1948) is a French actress and comedian.
She was revealed to the public when participating in the TV Show La Classe in 1987. After the show, she started her career with several one-woman shows.
She is a big name in theater, being best known for her comic timing and her recognizable voice.
On the radio, she is a recurring member of the daily comedy programme Les Grosses Têtes, hosted by Laurent Ruquier.
Since 2016, she also has had more important on-screen roles, especially due to the success of the movie We Are Family (2016) and its two sequels: C'est quoi cette mamie?! (2019) and C'est quoi ce papy?! (2021). She also frequently works with the younger generation of directors like Philippe Lacheau and Tarek Boudali.
In 2022, she was a judge on the fourth season of Mask Singer.
In June 2023, the press announced that she will play the lead in the TF1 series “Le fil d'Ariane”, where she will play a court reporter.
Ladesou met her husband Michel Ansault and with whom she had three children, two boys, Alix (who died in a car accident), Julien and a daughter, the actress Clémence Ansault. Her son Julien Ansault is married to Pauline Lefèvre. She has five grandchildren.
