Now produce HTML with same tags. Make sure to keep entities like ’ and “ etc. In translation we can keep them as they appear in original text? The original had ’ for apostrophe in first paragraph. We'll keep that entity unchanged. For quotes in second paragraph, original used “ and ” for left and right double quotes. We'll keep them unchanged. In translation we can keep them but the French text may not need them; but we must keep them exactly as original characters? The instruction: keep all HTML tags intact. Entities are part of text, not tags. We can replace them with appropriate French punctuation but better keep them as they are? Probably keep them as they are, but we can also replace with French quotes. Safer to keep them unchanged to avoid altering characters. So keep “ and ”. Thus second paragraph will be: "Tommy Davidson, comedian and actor from “In Living Color,” ..." We'll replace English text with French but keep the entities around the title. So: "Tommy Davidson, comédien et acteur de “In Living Color,” ..." Keep same. First paragraph: keep ’ after Davidson. So "Tommy Davidson’s" becomes "Tommy Davidson’s" but we need French translation; we could keep the entity but the French phrase would be "L’étendue extraordinaire de Tommy Davidson’s..." That looks odd. Better to replace with French possessive? But we must keep entity? The entity is part of original text; we can replace the whole phrase with French translation without the entity. However the instruction is to keep tags intact, not necessarily entities. Entities are part of text, can be changed. But to be safe, we can keep the entity for apostrophe: "Tommy Davidson’s" -> "Tommy Davidson’s" but French translation would be "L’étendue extraordinaire de Tommy Davidson’s..." That's weird. Better to rewrite: "L’étendue extraordinaire de Tommy Davidson" (no apostrophe). So we can drop entity. That's fine. Thus final HTML:

L’étendue extraordinaire de Tommy Davidson, du stand‑up à la comédie en passant par ses diverses réalisations musicales, lui a valu une réputation d’artiste exceptionnel. Sa visibilité lui a permis de devenir un nom familier, reconnu pour son talent innovant. Il est surtout connu comme l’une des stars de la série télévisée à succès In Living Color. Mais saviez‑vous comment il a fini par être adopté par une famille blanche ?

Make sure closing blockquote added. Original didn't have closing, but we added. Might be okay. The instruction: keep tags intact, but adding closing tag is not altering existing tags. It's necessary for well-formed HTML. We'll keep. Return only HTML.Tommy Davidson
