Musical artist

Carlos (born Jean-Chrysostome Dolto;[1] February 20, 1943 — January 17, 2008) was a French singer, entertainer and actor. He is sometimes called Jean-Christophe Doltovitch.[2]

Jean-Chrysostome Dolto is the son of the psychoanalyst and pediatrician Françoise Dolto[3] (née Marette) (1908–1988) and the physiotherapist Boris Dolto (1899–1981), of Russian origin.

Carlos was heavily overweight and cultivated a jovial countenance, and adopted a look similar to the singer Antoine, with leis and Hawaiian shirts. In 1980, he became a spokesman for the Oasis brand fruit drink, with his song "Rosalie" (a cover of Georges Plonquitte [fr], singer for Typical Combo, a Guadeloupean group)[4] being used in their television advertisements.[citation needed]
