Chloé Briot (born 18 November 1987) is a French operatic soprano.
Life
Briot was born in Mayenne of parent teachers. She started playing percussion at the age of 4, then started playing the flute and took dance lessons. At the age of 14, the singing teacher at the city's conservatory decided to accept her into her class even though she was too young for the age requirement. She then studied at the Conservatoire de Paris from 2006 onwards, which she left afterwards, judging the atmosphere "too academic". She then went on to study at the Aix-en-Provence Festival, of which she was a laureate in 2014.

In 2018, she was nominated in the "Lyric Artist" category in the Victoires de la musique classique.

In August 2020, she announced that she had filed a complaint for sexual assault.
