Alizee is a Better Britney
Here are some additional pics from the vault of Alizee and some more juicy background details about her:
Alizée Jacotey shot to fame in France at the tender age of 15, under the wing of veteran French Canadian singer songwriter, Mylène Farmer. How credible an artiste the self-styled lolita of europop was considered to be remains in debate. Being labeled as ‘The French Britney’ by English speaking nations could be seen as a blessing or a curse.
After a four and a half year hiatus, the hottest thing to come out of Corsica since Napolean Bonaparte is back. First single ‘Mademoiselle Juliette’ is a brooding and driven dance pop carnival, and a stark reminder of the popfrog’s sultry vocal talents. She always comes across as something of a reluctant star, given the relatively low, laid-back voice and the initial preference for dancing rather than singing.
It’s nice to actually listen to a hot singer and not want to put a jackhammer to your ear. She is hot, talented, and can dance … what it should take to be a pop star. If you’ve never seen her dance, be forewarned it’s mesmerizing. You’ll be under a spell hoping that her freaking skirt will move up just a little more and she’ll tease you all day with her upskirt mirage.
