She has received numerous nominations and awards, including one Felix in 1998, and three Olivier in 1999 for her second One Woman Show. In 2003, Mercier's third One Woman Show included new impressions, and was well attended.

  • Claudine Mercier est une imitatrice et humoriste québécoise. Elle a notamment joué à elle seule 5 rôles dont les 4 principaux du film Idole instantanée. Elle est née le 3 novembre 1961. Elle a fait son premier one woman show en 1993. Elle est reconnue pour de nombreuses imitations de chanteuses telles que Céline Dion, Lara Fabian, Diane Dufresne, Nanette Workman, Ginette Reno, Britney Spears, Shakira, Cher et Madonna. Elle imite également des animatrices comme Claire Lamarche, Sonia Benezra, Denise Bombardier et Sœur Angèle. Son imitation la plus populaire est sans doute celle de la femme d'affaires Lise Watier. Ceci lui a même valu l' Olivier de la meilleure imitation. Cependant, Lise Watier, qui en avait assez de se faire tourner en ridicule, demanda à Mercier de retirer son numéro, ce qu'elle fit quelques jours après la demande de Lise Watier.
