Alizée plays a joke on Jenifer

[Twitch]

My apologies if this is not new to you guys but I found this on Google video it was posted last week, but based on Jenifer's album it is from 2004. At first I was excited because it was newly posted and when Alizée was asked by the announcer when they would see her, for an interview, she said that it would be real soon, but after looking up Jenifer's album I realized it was 2 years old. But It's still funny because Alizée calls in pretending to be a fan called Anabelle and Jenifer doesn't recognize her voice.

My French is really rusty but here's a quick and dirty translation:

Announcer: ...where we play little jokes like that. We are always with Jenifer, her new CD has been on sale since Monday. It's called Le Passage, hop, I'll put it back in fullscreen. Voila, Voila, Voila, you're very beautiful in the photograph. (Female Announcer: You're magnificent in the photo.) Wow.
Jenifer: Thanks, its thanks to the photographer.
Announcers: A quick question from the phone. Yes, Anabelle I believe. Welcome.
Anabelle(Alizée): Hello
Announcers: Hi, welcome to Paris, welcome to Select.
Anabelle: Thanks
Announcer: I believe you have a quick question for Jenifer?
Anabelle: Yes, first I want to say I'm a big fan.
Jenifer: Thanks
Anabelle: I wanted to know if you're a fan of Alizée?
Jenifer: Yes, I'm a fan of Alizée, I know her personally she's a friend, but...
Announcer: Yes
Anabelle: are you sure?
Announcer: What do you you think of Alizée?
Jenifer: I Like her, like her a lot.
Announcer: If you had to name a fault of Alizée, a major fault of Alizée's, what would it be? Something that bothers you about her.
Jenifer: No, no there's nothing that bothers me.
Announcer: Why did you ask that question Annabelle? I find you really curious.
Anabelle: Well, I wanted to know if she really knows her that well
Announcer: Sure
Anabelle(Alizée): Because if she knows me that well, she would have known it was me, wouldn't she?
Announcer: Voila, There you go.
Announcer: Can you sing a little C'est pas ma faute to see?
Alizée: singing C'est pas ma faute...
Announcer: Good day Alizée
Jenifer: Hi
Announcer: Didn't you guys have lunch together at noon yesterday; (Female Announcer: and she still didn't recognize your voice) You were fooled all the same.
Jenifer: I didn't recognize your voice.
Alizée:It's ok, I forgive you, its because of the phone
Annoouncer: So you're really good friends then?
Alizée/Jenifer: Yes, Yes, we like each other a lot.
Announcer: What was the last foolish thing the two of you did together, shopping or...
Alizée:... we go shopping too much...
Jenifer: Voila, there you go.
Announcer: How is it going Alizée, and when are you comming to see us?
Alizée: Soon, whenever you invite me.
Announcer: Well now that you have our number call us anytime.
Alizée: That's kind.
Announcer: In any case, we'll send you a big kiss, it was really nice for you to surprise Jenifer.
Alizée: It's normal. (It was nothing)
Announcer: When will we see the two of you again?
Alizée: Real quick, real quick. Someone who saw me on the show sent me a text message...
Announcers: There you go, Ok.
Alizée:...and i should answer it.
Announcers: Thanks Alizée, see you soon. Thanks a lot, a big kiss.
Jenifer: From me too.
Alizée: See you soon. Until next time.
Announcer:Let's go now... and the rest of Jenifer's interview continues.

thats is really funny great video never seen it before thanks

[Shep]

Awesome :cool:

[Urb4n]

Huh, wonder what prompted Alizee to call that show, I mean, yeah it's some well-meant raillery for a friend, but the call didn't seem too welcome. Or is it just me?

[RMJ]

The translation seems bit weird at the end. I think it's Jennifer who messaged Alizée before the show (and Jennifer comments it by saying 'voila' so she knows what Alizée is talking about). And then Alizée says that she replied to Jennifer just a moment ago.

Tho, she speaks so fast that I can't really follow what she says...

Dunno, maybe aFrenchie can tell which one really is correct translation ?

I have these subtitles for it:


1
00:00:24,005 --> 00:00:25,923
- Anabelle, welcome.
- Hello, Anabelle.

2
00:00:25,924 --> 00:00:26,618
Allo..

3
00:00:26,619 --> 00:00:28,358
- Hello, Anabelle.
- Hi, Anabelle.
- Hello.

4
00:00:28,359 --> 00:00:30,088
Seventeen years old, from Paris, welcome to Select!

5
00:00:30,089 --> 00:00:30,982
Thank you.

6
00:00:30,983 --> 00:00:33,503
So, I think you have a tiny question for Jenifer.

7
00:00:33,504 --> 00:00:36,121
Yes, I wanted to tell you that I like you a lot...

8
00:00:36,122 --> 00:00:36,881
Thank you.

9
00:00:36,882 --> 00:00:40,160
...and I'd love to know if you're a fan of Alizée?

10
00:00:40,461 --> 00:00:44,128
Yes, I'm a fan of Alizée, I know her personally, she's a friend...

11
00:00:44,129 --> 00:00:45,532
Ah, well, are you sure?

12
00:00:45,533 --> 00:00:47,350
As a matter of fact, what do you think of Alizée?

13
00:00:47,351 --> 00:00:49,733
I like her a lot, I've liked her a lot since the beginning.

14
00:00:49,734 --> 00:00:52,959
If you had to point out a flaw, a major flaw in Alizée, what would it be?

15
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,424
A little thing that bothers you?

16
00:00:54,425 --> 00:00:56,355
- No, there's nothing that bothers me.
- There's nothing?
- No.

17
00:00:56,356 --> 00:00:58,789
Why do you ask this question, Anabelle? You're very curious.

18
00:00:58,790 --> 00:01:01,763
Well, I wanted to know if she really knew her so well, that's all...

19
00:01:01,764 --> 00:01:02,376
All right.

20
00:01:02,377 --> 00:01:05,731
Because, well, if she knew her real well, then she would have recognized me!

21
00:01:05,732 --> 00:01:06,385
There you go.

22
00:01:06,386 --> 00:01:09,272
- Stop...! It's not true!
- Can you try a little « c'est pas ma faute à moi » to see...

23
00:01:09,273 --> 00:01:10,929
« C'est pas ma faute ... »

24
00:01:10,930 --> 00:01:12,430
Hell! I didn't recognize you!

25
00:01:13,500 --> 00:01:14,660
Hello, Alizée

26
00:01:14,661 --> 00:01:17,095
- Hello.
- Hello.
- Nice.

27
00:01:17,396 --> 00:01:20,252
We have to mention, in any case, that you had lunch together yesterday noon.

28
00:01:20,253 --> 00:01:21,306
Eh, yes!

29
00:01:21,307 --> 00:01:24,034
She didn't recognize your voice, even so, you have some nerve.

30
00:01:24,035 --> 00:01:26,803
- I didn't recognize you.
- I forgive her, it's the phone...

31
00:01:26,804 --> 00:01:28,600
So you're really good friends?

32
00:01:28,601 --> 00:01:30,800
- Yes, we get along really well.
- We like each other a lot, yes.

33
00:01:30,801 --> 00:01:34,811
The last wild thing you two did together, what was it? Go shopping? Do you go out together?

34
00:01:34,812 --> 00:01:37,796
The problem is that we do too much shopping, and we buy too many things.

35
00:01:37,797 --> 00:01:38,494
That's it.

36
00:01:38,495 --> 00:01:41,135
Alizée, when are you going to come see us one of these days?

37
00:01:41,136 --> 00:01:43,418
Soon, when you invite me!

38
00:01:43,419 --> 00:01:45,351
Tomorrow if you want.

39
00:01:45,352 --> 00:01:47,635
Now that you have our number, you can call us whenever you want!

40
00:01:47,636 --> 00:01:48,456
Very kind.

41
00:01:48,457 --> 00:01:51,523
In any case we send you a big kiss, it's very kind of you to have given Jenifer this surprise.

42
00:01:51,524 --> 00:01:52,313
No problem.

43
00:01:52,314 --> 00:01:54,470
- Thanks.
- When are you two going to see each other again?

44
00:01:54,471 --> 00:01:58,698
Very soon. What's more, this afternoon, one hour before the show she sent me a text message

45
00:01:58,699 --> 00:02:00,737
and I just finished responding to it.

46
00:02:00,738 --> 00:02:01,348
All right.

47
00:02:01,349 --> 00:02:03,357
- Thank you Alizée.
- See you soon, thanks a lot.

48
00:02:03,358 --> 00:02:07,458
- See you soon, and I send you a big hug, Jeni.
- Big kisses, Alizée.
- Me too. See you later!

I agree ... Jennifer didn't seem to excited about the call. Then again, you can never tell these kind of things for sure. Alizee sounds sexy on the phone .. lol

*waits by the telephone*

[aditya8617]

Thanks for the video and translation Twitch and welome to Alizee America!

Haha, Nice joke by Alizee, I am sure I would have recognized her voice if she would call me, Call me Alizee!

[Twitch]

Thanks for the Welcome.

RMJ's subtitles are the translation to use, being one that French is my second language and I haven't translated anything since high school or spoken it in over 5 years, second I'm Canadian so the Acadian french spoken here in New Brunswick or la Québécoise in Quebec has different dialects than the French used in France. Although France's dialect, with the exception of unfamiliar expressions, is the easiest for me to understand, being the closest to the French I learned in school. Acadian french much like the Cajun french down south in the US has spent the last 400 or so years developing into almost its own language, and unless you grew up in a french family that spoke it you will have a harder time understanding it (at least I do). And lastly as stated in my original post my translation was done quickly, add this to a lack of being able to hear what was said because parts of the clip had two or three people talking together, and you get a translation meant only to provide something until somebody posted something better.

[Matrix]

I recognized Alizees voice right away. Man, you get Alizee on the phone and she yaps yaps yaps..lol gawd. Alizee talks more on the phone than she does in real life! lol

Alizee certainly is not shy on the telephone, lol

It's no co-incident that in half of the photos on press she carries celly. ;)

Alizée and cellphones are inseparable. She must have huge phone bill. :eek:

[rwd716]

I still recognize friends on the telephone :P Boo Jenifer!

[RadioactiveMan]

I'll have to remember to do that when I'm a celebrity. ;)

[newalizeefan]

shes just one of those people.......that need their cell with them all the time.
i wish i could say the same about myself, so i could be a little bit more cooler lol.

i wish alizee would prank call me, she sounds like a fun person to talk to. maybe ill send her my cell number when she makes her comeback.

[bt_bird_90]

I'll have to remember to do that when I'm a celebrity. ;)

ah, I can see this already in the works...*cues cloudy 80s-style dream sequence*

Host: "Hey, we're here live in Paris with the one and only Alizée promoting her new album!" "Hello, Alizée, how are you today?"

Alizée: "Very well, merci"

Host: "And it seems we have a caller on the line, caller please tell us your name and where you're from"

Caller: "Hello, this is *snicker* "Bob" from Southern California"

Host: "Woah, an international fan, hey "Bob", did you have a question for Alizée?"

Caller: "Yes, *snickers*, Alizée, will you marry me?"

Host: "Woah, easy buddy, I believe she's taken"

Alizée: "Of course, I am happily married and have a child, but it is very flattering though"

Caller: "bahaha, just kidding, it's really me, bt_bird_90"

Alizée: "pardon me?"

bt_bird_90: "me of course! bt_bird_90, from moi-alizee.us?"

Alizée: "have we met before?"

bt_bird_90: "well, no... but hey, it's me, you're biggest fan!"

Host: "um... we seem to be having technical difficulties, sorry caller, we seem to be loosing you" *signals to cut the line*

bt_bird_90: "b-b-but, Alizée, ALIZEE, AAALIZEEEE!!!......"

Host: "boy, sorry for that, there sure are some strange people out there"

Alizée: "I love bt_bird_90"

I agree Brad. She seems like such a fun person - this is definately un-distorted proof of her amazing personality.

not Alizée's... I recognized it immediately.. but that could also be a consequence of listening to her voice 14 hours a day

[Fèvier]

i wish, the closest i ever get to be able to listen to her are like 10 hours on a weekend. and not including hearing it in your head- thats a different story :o
i just dont have that much availiable time

[chazkimies]

very nice video:)

[user472884]

my alarm is set to Alizée... my ringtone is set to the line "Lo.. Li.. Ta"... I listen with an earbud in my right ear (it's already semi-deaf from an accident I had, so my good left ear can still hear my lectures while the ol' righty hears the essence of Her Majesty's Grace and Beauty) and if I get crap for it I respond with a very quick and clear
FUCK YOU BITCH!

PE necessitates both headphones, mainly because my PE teacher sounds a lot like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vqs-LXdgt1o

and of course the rest of the day is filled with Alizée

and when I go to sleep I set Alizée to play until the laptop battery dies..

Repeat as needed until dead

[wildfire]

My god, that sounds like alley cats having prison sex!


Fun post... Its really really great to hear how people have her music as almost a sanctuary. I luv how people get crap for listening to Alizee, but not when then listen to the junk on the radio right now. Scares me to think of the folks that listen to Rap all the time or crap hip hop or that angry shouting skinhead music.. not even sure whats thats called.

Here in LA they have this music radio "amp 97.1" which is utter garbage... they lyrics to the songs go like "I wanna dance on your disco stick" or " fall in love with a thug at the club". At a trendy restaurant in town, they put up a stripper pole where the girls feel compelled to dance on it because of peer pressure or just cause its there. So all of these local secretaries and the like are up there grinding to the pole while "thugs" look on. I mean what kind of element do you attract with this stuff.. and now its mainstream.. the notion of "pimp and ho's".... as in like your secretary! An now, that restaurant/club advertises that they offer professional dancers to give lessons on pole dancing!

So much for etiquette school, teach your girls to act like strippers...


For me, much of the rap/hip hop scenes is about being showy and compensating for the fact dad wasn't there with thug behavior.. while at the same time perpetuating that trend by treating women poorly and as objects. I mean name a song that actualy puts women on a pedestal... and not just to look up her dress! ;D

I don't see Alizee fans acting like this:

<object width="340" height="285"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/rs07ut44Kq4&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/rs07ut44Kq4&hl=en_US&fs=1&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="340" height="285"></embed></object>

[user472884]

^ I get violently pissed when the fuckers at my school think they're cool shit when they quite literally record some non-understandable crap like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TBEZoPNeXN with their cell-phone, think they're cool shit walking around holding it and listening to pretty much static (oh, did I mention they're deaf from listening to their ipods and stuff on max volume?)

and they call me a fag for listening to Alizée... or even simon and garfunkel, beethoven, the beatles damnit.. the freaking beatles, celtic music, edith piaf.... if I didn't have a future there'd be a good chance I'd be the next columbine

now excuse me while I go listen to Parler Tout Bas a few hundred times...

your youtube link reports "The URL contained a malformed video ID."

I know what you mean. There is such a need for toughness compensation in our society now, where even niceness = weakness. Don't know how people get off on that stuff....

my alarm is set to Alizée... my ringtone is set to the line "Lo.. Li.. Ta"... I listen with an earbud in my right ear (it's already semi-deaf from an accident I had, so my good left ear can still hear my lectures while the ol' righty hears the essence of Her Majesty's Grace and Beauty) and if I get crap for it I respond with a very quick and clear
FUCK YOU BITCH!



wow, well i wish i had my stolen ipod back. i actually took my sister's ipod because she hasnt used it in a long time so i just made a playlist of Her Majesty and just listen to Her wherever i go :D

the bad part is that i only have these headphones that are huge so it is easily visible and cant listen during class :(

2nd time I've watched this and its awesome how playful Alizee can be :D She definitely still has that playfulness with all her twitter and instagram photos, along with the Video Chat she did with Psych and 5th album.

It's one of so many videos that gives you just a small glimpse of what the real Alizee is like. It would be interesting to put together a list of clips that do that and what exactly each clip reveals.
