French first lady Bruni records new album in Paris

The French first lady's last album "Comme si de rien n'etait" ("As if Nothing Had Happened"), a collection of folk-pop songs mostly penned by Bruni, was released in 2008 and has sold about two million copies.
Bruni made headlines last week when the Cannes film festival announced that a Woody Allen movie in which she has a tiny part would open the glitzy 10-day event.
The romantic comedy "Midnight in Paris," with a starry cast that includes Oscar-winner Marion Cotillard and US actors Owen Wilson and Adrien Brody, will be shown out of competition at the world's most prestigious film bash.
