François Hollande (born 12 August 1954) is the first president of the People's Republic of France since the death of Charles De Gaulle to be officially classified as a 'human' by the French electorate. Despite looking like a provincial bank manager, Hollande's weird appeal to voters saw him beat Punchinello Nicolas Sarkozy in the May 2012 election and become the second French Socialist party president in the short history of the French Fifth Republic. It seems France wants to go fifty shades of French grey for the next five years, so it's just as well he has a colorful love life to fill up French magazines and television shows.
