Her 1980's albums are good examples of the Euro disco electropop style popular in Continental Europe at the time, featuring synthesizers and very catchy melodies.

She started landing small parts in commercials as well as in full-length films and she hosted her own show on a private channel: La Uomo TV.

Roberto Zaneli and Romano Musumarra wrote the music for her first French hit "Toute première fois".

[1] French people discovered a young woman on their TV screen entirely dressed in black, with jet-black hair, an emaciated face, and very pronounced make-up: a bland version of the punk look.

A few weeks later, she won the equivalent of a grammy for female performer of the year during the first Victoires de la musique.

This is why she refused a song written by Musumarra which would become "Ouragan" interpreted by the gloss and glitter Princess Stephanie of Monaco.

In the autumn, she played for seven days at the Palais des Sports in Paris and continued with forty concert dates in the rest of France.

[1] This tour commenced in March 1987 for twenty dates, one of which was a concert in Lyon where a live record and a ninety-minute film were made.

She went into a studio for three months and chose the best musicians for the recording: Manu Katché on drums, Steve Shehan on percussion, Tony Levin on bass and David Rhodes on guitar.

In 1994 "C'est pas normal", a more dance floor-oriented song, was released but interest was minimal, received limited airplay and was another flop.

Amongst the songs, three have texts by the poets Paul Verlaine, Alfred de Vigny and Guillaume Appolinaire's "Le pont Mirabeau".

In 2003, Jeanne Mas released a new album: Les Amants de Castille in hommage to the famous play Le Cid by Corneille.

Jeanne Mas left France in June 2005 and settled in California where she created her own label Red Rocks Productions.

In May 2009, Jeanne Mas performed two nights at the Olympia Theatre in Paris with her band – Mike Pachelli & Willis Clow (guitars), Todd Connelly (bass), Matt Lesser (drums) and Balint Sapszon (keyboards).

In July 2011, Jeanne Mas released her 13th album, Bleu Citron, with a single, Les Dimanches being well received by critics.

On 24 October 2012, Jeanne Mas was back on the big screen with the film Stars 80, which tells the story of the two producers of the tour RFM Party 80.

[5] In February 2016, Mas published the book Ma vie est une pomme ("My life is an apple") under Michel Lafon, which advocates the lifestyle.
