Michael Jordan and his wife, Yvette Prieto, recently enjoyed a memorable evening in Saint Tropez that resonated with nostalgia and joy, as they were unexpectedly serenaded by a saxophonist performing Chicago Bulls’ iconic theme song, “Sirius” by The Alan Parsons Project. This surprise musical tribute, captured in a video shared on social media by Dimasax, added a special touch to their European summer getaway.
The couple, renowned for their luxurious lifestyle and frequent travels, have been exploring various European destinations during this trip, including stops in Barcelona and Ibiza. However, it was their evening at Bagatelle restaurant in Saint Tropez that garnered attention, as they savored the music and ambiance amidst a gathering of friends.
“Sirius” holds a significant place in Michael Jordan’s legacy, having been the anthem that introduced the Bulls’ starting lineup during their illustrious six-championship dynasty in the 1990s. The song later gained renewed prominence as part of the soundtrack for Jordan’s acclaimed ESPN docuseries, “The Last Dance,” which premiered in 2020.
In the video, Jordan and Prieto were seen seated outdoors, surrounded by a lively atmosphere as fellow diners joined in the celebration. Jordan, in his trademark tinted sunglasses and black T-shirt, couldn’t resist bobbing his head to the beat, while Prieto clapped along, clearly enjoying the moment.
Dimasax, known for his saxophone performances along the French Riviera, shared the video on Instagram, capturing the couple’s delighted reactions. Their table was adorned with red rose petals, adding to the romantic ambiance as they indulged in dishes like sliced avocado, shrimp cocktail, and pizza.
This wasn’t the first time Jordan encountered “Sirius” during his vacations; a similar serenade had delighted the couple during a previous getaway. Jordan, often spending summers aboard his lavish yacht “M’BRACE,” valued at $115 million, embraces these moments of relaxation and celebration with his family.
Jordan and Prieto, who celebrated their 11th wedding anniversary earlier this year, were spotted holding hands in Saint Tropez, where they were also seen enjoying the Mediterranean sun and luxurious surroundings. The couple shares twin daughters, Victoria and Ysabel, adding a familial warmth to their European escapades.
As Michael Jordan continues to enjoy his retirement from basketball and explore new ventures, these glimpses into his personal life remind fans of his enduring legacy both on and off the court. His ability to inspire joy and nostalgia through simple moments like a serenade in Saint Tropez reflects the lasting impact of his iconic career and charismatic persona.
