Pierre de Maere (French pronunciation: [maʁ];[1] born 24 May 2001[2]) is a Belgian singer-songwriter.[3]

His single "Un jour je marierai un ange" reached the top 5 of the French-speaking Ultratop 50 Singles and the top 10 of the French national ranking in 2022, obtaining a diamond disc from the SNEP in 2023. After winning the prize for Belgian Revelation of the Year at the NRJ Music Awards in 2022, he received a Victoire de la Musique in 2023 in the category of Male Revelation of the Year.

In November 2024, he and Dua Lipa released the remix of the song "These Walls".[4]

De Maere is openly gay;[5] French magazine Têtu classified him as a queer artist in 2022; in response, he told Le Monde, "I prefer the word flamboyant to the word queer."[6][1]
