What does the “Pau Pau Paulette” meme mean?
The meme points to an audition that became a cult clip for its oddness: a chorus repeated until the tune sticks, and an accusation thrown at Paulette, “tu pollues!”. People bring it out to mock an invasive song, an earworm, or to recall the most baffling moments of talent shows. The name Paulette works as an anchor, and the “lette lette” echo does the rest.
Where does the “Pau Pau Paulette” meme come from?
The card presents Pau Pau Paulette as a star contestant of La France a un incroyable talent in 2011. The show’s sixth season aired on M6 from 19 October to 14 December 2011, with Marina as winner. Videos from the time show the performance by Georgine Brion, a title linked to the chorus “Pau pau Paulette let let”, alongside a TV report about her, versions with lyrics and outtake-style parodies. The clip quickly made its way around the web.

The reprint of the “Pau Pau Paulette” card
The “Pau Pau Paulette” card was reprinted as Rare (No. 2,270). A reprint is the same meme printed again, with a number of its own and a higher rarity than its first printing, which was common. Its face reads “Reprinted card · Higher rarity”.
Every printing is dealt in the packs of the Memes FR pack, each at its own rarity: the higher it is, the rarer the card is to pull. Copies of the first printing already pulled stay as they are, and any printing counts toward completing a set.
MyMemeCards reprints a meme when it deserves more than the rarity of its first printing, such as a classic that became iconic after it came out: the reprint gives it a place among the most sought-after cards without taking anything from the players who already had it.
