You don't think the production company would fork up enough to fly Alizée and the crew to the states, do you?

Well, who knows, after all it's always a surprise. And Jalen, if you want me to write a letter for you then I'll do that happily,;)

[wasabi622]

ZOMG!!! That's awesome!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

I don't how good the chances are of her coming to the US for the show, but just the fact that she's going to do the show again is coolio. :D

That's why I said, you never know what's gonna happen and surprise was the biggest element in the success of the show. It's always unexpected.

and I for you

Thanks, Jalen!!! :D

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

I want her to come to my house! But I would be ashamed, I own nothing Alizée but the dvd...

[Deepwaters]

You must attach the photo of the person

A good reason not to release any photos of myself until after this is over, so there's no way anyone can submit me.

I'd love to meet Alizée, but not in a fan setting and DEFINITELY not on worldwide TV. No. Freakin'. Way.

Of course I realize some others may feel differently, so go for it. ;)

[Merci Alizée]

But I would be ashamed, I own nothing Alizée but the dvd...

Sorry, but you can't be ashamed of that. You have no rights for that as you're an Alizée fan now and that's the biggest thing.

I can understand it, Deep. It may be good for one and not so for other. I know what you're trying to say. So, good luck, if you get a chance to meet her and you treasure those moments forever to yourself only.

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

Deep, this is not a typical fan setting. Remember, Jessica was friends with Alizée long enough to attend the pre-release thing for Psych? This is the best opportunity for what you hope! And I would not be surprised, were she to come here for an American fan. It would be a great way to break into America! Also, could someone nominate me? I know I am going to nominate Scruffy!

[johnsons34]

haha I would totally do it, but does it mean I have to go to france? will they pay? hahah

BUT, aren't they going to pick a fan? Would they actually pick someone from the US?

Good idea VVV!!! Well I guess someone may nominate you and you will never come to know who did it.;)

haha I would totally do it, but does it mean I have to go to france? will they pay? hahah

BUT, aren't they going to pick a fan? Would they actually pick someone from the US?

There is no information about that. But we expect that fans would be chosen from France only.

[Deepwaters]

Deep, this is not a typical fan setting.

No, it's WORSE!

Actually, I suggest that anyone from this country hoping to be chosen keep your shirt on. It's a French TV program, so just about guaranteed it will have to be shot in a French-speaking area, which means probably France. Maybe Quebec. Certainly not the U.S., or Mexico either.

About Jessica: that friendship didn't work out. Alizée cut contact with her eventually. The story about how she had to change her phone number -- well, probably that's true, but if she had wanted to stay in contact with Jessica she would have given her the new phone number. She didn't -- therefore she didn't.

And it's perfectly understandable. Jessica was obsessed with Alizée to an unhealthy degree. Copying her hairstyle, copying her facial expressions, buying every disc ever produced including foreign editions and remixes, it was just nutso. Personal contact between them reinforced that obsession. I think Alizée came to realize she was doing the poor girl no good and cut it off, letting Jessica find her own identity. Today, Jessica seems less obsessed than when she was a teenager, and maybe their friendship has been renewed. Or maybe not. Either way, it's NOT part of Alizée's public life, and it should not be. We don't know. We won't know. We shouldn't know.

Which is kind of the point. If I ever do meet her, it will be in a way that nobody here will ever know about. I won't talk about it on this forum, it will not be on camera, it will not be part of a PR thing or a promotion for her career, and CERTAINLY not on freakin' TELEVISION!!!!

Anyway I probably shouldn't worry about it, because as I said it will certainly be in a French-speaking area, and in any case the show will certainly want someone younger (although maybe not a kid this time, we'll see). (And -- ahem -- probably female. Just sayin'.) I think I'm a little paranoid, because I specifically told Scruffy to add me to the autograph list only if he couldn't get 50 other people, he put me on anyway, and Her Grace signed my name twice. Godalmighty. LOL this kind of thing happens to me.

Only this time it better not. Really. I mean it. I'm not kidding. :eek:

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

Ok, well, you have a good point about Jessica. But where have you found recent (after the Psych thing) info about her? Also, really, I would love the chance to have a personal friendship with Alizée the way you describe it. That COULD BE the most amazing thing ever. But, as it is a 99.999% chance that will NEVER happen, I do not kid myself by thinking about it. Instead, I look at things like this SAD show as the closest I could be to her friend. I (like most people on earth) was unlucky enough to not be born as somebody close to this spectacular woman. I couldn't hope for a true, candid friendship with her, because I look at it as realistically as possible. I don't feign optimism. They may chooe an American fan, but probably not. But how stupid would I feel were I to have never entered, and they did choose an American? Tbc

Edit:

I know that I can never be her true friend. I accept that. But if I could meet her, and spend one day with her, it would make me happy. I don't want her to come to my house and feel obliged to be all buddy buddy with me. If she came here, she would be welcomed as a guest. If she felt we connected amicably, then maybe we could be friends to some degree. But simply for the fact she is a celebrity, that friendship could never be more than maybe pen pals. I would not ask for her phone or address. I can think of no worse way to drive her away than by doing that. But I would not refuse it, either, were she to offer. But I would not gve it to anybody here. Or anywhere. I would even try to hide it from the SAD people. Not like how everyone knew Jessica had her number. In fact, I would prefer her address (e-mail), simply because I hate talking on the phone. It would wind up that we would never actually talk, and would part ways very early.

[Deepwaters]

Ok, well, you have a good point about Jessica. But where have you found recent (after the Psych thing) info about her?


Nothing since then. I just saw from the pictures at that time that the hairstyle, the way she was dressed, Jessica was herself and not imitation Alizée. So obviously she's not as obsessed as before. But still a fan, hence her invitation to that event. I have no knowledge whatever that their friendship has been renewed, I'm just saying that if Alizée wanted to I would see no barrier at this point.


Instead, I look at things like this SAD show as the closest I could be to her friend.

But it's not close enough, no substitute, and not something I'd be interested in. Really, as a fan, I need very little from her: just good music, and a chance to someday see her in concert. I don't need her autograph, I don't need to meet her in person as a fan, nothing like that has any appeal for me.

My personal connection with her, my feeling of friendship, is something I keep separate from my association with her as a fan. And something like this TV show is a fan thing, not a friend thing. As a friend, I'd just roll my eyes at it. As a fan, it's not something I need. From both sides of myself -- no. Just no.

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

Ok, then we are just two different fans with different points of view. To each his own, and may you fnd what you seek. :)

[johnsons34]

Jessica has been dating a musician too. She found her own Jeremy.

ahahaha

[paintballpdh19]

!!!!!!!!

you never kno ;)

[CFHollister]

This is awesome news; I can't wait to see it!

I agree that any American fan is extremely unlikely, I could maybe see a Mexican fan, but I also consider that unlikely. The main problem is that the "mark" almost certainly needs to speak french so that he/she can do the interviews in front of the audience as part of the show, and that the meeting with Alizée can appear as natural as possible without need of an interpreter. Not that it would be an absolute requirement, it could be made to work otherwise, I just don't see it happening for a non-french-speaking "mark."

[user472884]

What? You're not a dragon?

[Deepwaters]

What? You're not a dragon?

I meant a photo in my human form, of course. Jeez, you think I'd meet Alizée in flying-fire-breathing-carnivorous-reptile form? Scare her half to death . . . :rolleyes:

[User22]

Guys stop getting my hopes up that I can actually meet her. I don't want to meet her and totally just freeze up like the first girl that was on there with her that didn't even say a word to her and looked like a brat. Although I would like to ask her a lot of unanswered questions that I have with her...

[Edcognito]

ZOMG!!! That's awesome!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

I don't how good the chances are of her coming to the US for the show, but just the fact that she's going to do the show again is coolio. :D

QFT! This is a very, very pleasant surprise... I know I do *not* want to be on this show...

Its cute when a 15 yr. old french girl gets surprised by Alizée @ a shoe shop and cries tears of joy... It would just be damn'd silly to see how *I* would react... :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:



Ed:cool:

Only this time it better not. Really. I mean it. I'm not kidding. :eek:
/me begins hatching evil plot... :D

[Deepwaters]

/me begins hatching evil plot... :D

Ha! No pics for you, Ed. :p

[Rev]

Although she would probably enjoy going to another country to do a "visit," I don't think a French program would be the venue (as it's about the French audience identifying with the surprised person).

Perhaps someone out there can convince the networks to start an American show where international artists surprise American fans. :)

[wasabi622]

Lets be real people, she's going to stay in France for the show. If she's going to go anywhere, it's most likely going to be somewhere in Mexico. Seeing as how her last album was very popular there, rather than here in the US.

Besides, I feel like it's up to producers of the show, rather than Alizée herself.
Maybe if it was up to Alizée, the chances would be higher, especially after meeting Scruffy! But with the producers... I doubt it.

[Roman]

I meant a photo in my human form, of course. Jeez, you think I'd meet Alizée in flying-fire-breathing-carnivorous-reptile form? Scare her half to death . . . :rolleyes:
But after she got over her fright, she'd probably think it was really cool, espcially if you give her a ride. Just don't drop her, you!

And yeah people, you have to forget about Alizée and Alizée fans. This is a tv show. It's not for them. It's for the audience! It's a way to get people to watch tv again and thus their target demographic for the tv show is where they will get the fan that they surprise. Why in hell would they pick someone who can not even watch the show and hope to be chosen?

Edit: sorry, didn't see the attribution. Thanks M.A. for the post. In the future (or now if you know where it is) it would be really nice to have a link to the source when you cite your source.
If it is true, wow! That's awesome and in fact it seems that Alizée can't go out of style in France.

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

Roman, wasabi, I understand you guys. Yes, it is up to the producers. Especially since the show is not actually associated with her. As for the possibility of her visiting an American fan (her choice or the producers'), of corse that will most likely not happen. Sorry for trying to be a bit entertaining by teasing the idea. Why not, though? It is fun to pretend, but I guess we took it too far. Sorry. Let me excuse myself for having an imagination in a place where people petend to be robots and dragons. I thought by playing with this idea, I wouldn't be crossing the line. But apparently I did. Oh well, all I am going to say on this thread is that I can't wait to see the show.

[Deepwaters]

But after she got over her fright, she'd probably think it was really cool, espcially if you give her a ride. Just don't drop her, you!

Now there's a great thought. The lovely lady astride the majestic, terrifying monster, taming the terror with her magical smile . . . :cool:

Of course I wouldn't drop her. And if I did, she'd just sprout her fairy wings and fly. ;)

I will now do the party pooper thing one more time and point out that even if they had two "stars" per show they have too many listed there for a mere 6 shows. They will use this opportunity to gague interest while selecting who to actually use for the shows. Don't forget how fickle, complicated and hype driven show biz is. Point being, Alizée might be on the show if the show actually ever happens.

Two things Aaronius:

1) Back in 2006, when I discovered Alizée, and she had already seemingly disappeared for two years and there was no news at all of a new album coming and there wasn't even an address to send fan mail... the notion of meeting Alizée seemed an impossibility. But lo, a year later, there I was before her. There's been two autograph signings so far, Alizée is still perusing her career and there may very well be other opportunities to meet Alizée or see her perform. Have a little faith; you don't need to try to pin your hopes on SAD.

2) Speaking from personal experience, and seeing other people, I can tell you the natural inclination upon meeting Alizée is to freeze up, at least on some level: mentally, temporally, vocally (especially for so many of us poor Americans who have so much we want to say but, alas, can't speak french!). It happens, and there's very little you can do about it.

(Still excited about the possibility of a new SAD with Alizée! With the first two appearances it was indescribably wonderful to see Alizée (within limits obviously) be herself. Alizée is a very private and guarded person, but when she lowers the guard enough to have a one-on-one moment with someone else (esp. a younger person), it offers us a rare glimpse into Alizée's capacity for kindness and compassion. It's a treat I look forward to :))

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

That's great for you, CF. I'm glad you got to meet her in your first year. I would love to. But like most Americans, I just don't have the money to France, or even Mexico. People like me, we can only hope for the immensely tiny chance SAD presents. Because as small as that chance is, going to France is about 1 millionth of that.

1)Me Myself and I would REALLY like to meet Alizée, but that would take away the tantalizing feature about her. Although I would still love to see her in a concert of some sort.

2)Yah I would probably just freeze up vocally and start ranting in English and think she will understand it haha.

3)Man I can't believe we will see her on SAD again! Hopefully it is better than the 2nd girl even! That would be amazing:D

[wasabi622]

I wonder who she'll be meeting this time? I mean I don't think she'll be meeting younger kids again, do you? She's older now, and her new album seems aimed at the slightly older age group.

Now I'm not saying that younger people aren't going to like it, I'm just saying that it doesn't seem to be the type of music that is aimed for Julia.

[User22]

Based on your post Wasabi it sounds like you think she will be visiting someone at a nursing home hahahaah jkjk....

[wasabi622]

Based on your post Wasabi it sounds like you think she will be visiting someone at a nursing home hahahaah jkjk....

Hmm.. I don't know about that, though then again, them elders are the true children of the century. :p

The point is though, that her new music isn't the same genre as Gourmadises, MCE, or even Pyschedelices, which.. ehh, I guess I would say are somewhat like mainstream pop music(Not mainstream American though obviously).

She's appealing to a different fan base, so who exactly is it??!

People of the future....Cause this album is way before its time:D

[Fall]

Awesome news, I'm really excited. Thanks for posting that MA! I'm glad she's up for doing these shows again. Maybe now we'll get that TV performance we've been looking for. I wish her and all her fans the best :)

[wasabi622]

*squeal* YES! That would be fantastic! Though, I wonder which song she'll sing? I'm going to guess either Les Collines or Limelight? I mean, they were the first released singles of the album, and that's what she usually sings for this show, isn't it? Singles from the album?

I mean both Parler Tout Bas and J'ai Pas Vingt Ans were singles.

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

Well, I doubt Limelight, it was only a teaser/promo single, as far as I know, never actually on the radio. I hope she sings the net single, though. I love Les Collines, but I don't think it would work well as a stage performance. Something like Factory Girl, or maybe Grand Central.

[User22]

I still think Les Collines can be performed well, it's just not a dancing song. It's more of a move your hips and shoulders around song....

[wasabi622]

Dancing isn't that essential. When she performed Parlet Tout Bas, she was just sitting down.

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

We all saw what happened with MJ when she was sitting down, compared to standing up.

[Roman]

In all likelyhood, it would be Les Collines unless another single came along before. She performed Les Collines live already and there's that video so you can get some idea of what it might be like.
By the way, even if Alizée likes to maintain some privacy in her life and even if she was at one time shy, I do not think I'd call her very guarded and secretive now. It just depends on the context. She openly talked about her family on that recent radio program and has said stuff in the past to.
Clearly Alizée doesn't really seem to have the exhibitionist quality that many in the entertainment business do, but I think it's more that she tries to compartmentalize her career and not give it too much attention than that she's particularly guarded. Some celebrity performers get to be that because they just go all out and really go for it with their careers, but Alizée does not. She has long since reached the stage where she has enough interest that she could get people's interest all the time and thus give everything to her career. But that's not what she wants to do. So, she appears far less "hungry" in her career than so many young people seeking as much fame as they can get.

[User22]

So, she appears far less "hungry" in her career than so many young people seeking as much fame as they can get.

Especially since she started at a young age and saw what most of the world had for her to see. I mean hey, most American artists start in their 20's and stop by 40 or so...But hopefully Lilly goes until her vocal pipes have taken on too much awesomeness and withered down(never:D)

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

Well, remember, she is pretty much running her ow career at this point. She is making the decisions. Not MF. Not LB. She is able to be whatever she wants, and reveal what she wants, and guard what she wants. She isn't following another person's plan. Not that that plan didn't work, but it worked better for 15-18 Alizée than 23-25 Alizée. The current plan is much better for 25 Alizée.

"TF1 RENONCE AU RETOUR DE STARS A DOMICILE.

Il y a quelques semaines, jeanmarcmorandini.com vous avait annoncé, en exclusivité, que TF1 travaillait en exclusivité au retour de l'émission "Stars à domicile".

Après plusieurs semaines sur le projet, la Une aurait renoncé à remettre cette émission, qui était présentée par Flavie Flament, à l'antenne.

Selon le Parisien, à TF1 certains animateurs avaient même postulé pour l’animer, mais pas vraiment persuadée du succès de son retour, TF 1 a également renoncé devant la difficulté à trouver des stars de variétés pour aller chanter chez les gens."


Tf1 give up...:(

They say they don't believe anymore in the concept and tell that they had a lot of difficulties to find stars who accept to sing in people's house... :blink:

(what?? With musical industry crisis, and lack of musical show in France, that's seems really strange to me that those stars did react this way...)

:confused:

It's bit surprising. I mean how stars didn't accept to sing in people house. That would help them only. People will feel that stars are like them only and closer to them. That can be like a emotional attachment with their listeners and help them to increase their popularity.

Whatever may be the case, it was disappointing. :(

[Fall]

Oh no, more bad news :(:(:(:(:(

[Deepwaters]

To be honest, I'm not surprised. I would feel like it was an invasion of privacy to have TV cameras show up at my house. I think most people would feel that way nowadays, and most performers would be conscious of the fact that they were doing this. It was a little different with the two shows that Alizée did in 2001 and 2003, because those were kids, and the parents were aware of the whole thing, gave permission, and exercised a certain amount of control. With Alizée going for a more mature audience these days, it just wouldn't be appropriate.

[sumi1]

Yes, it actually makes sense. With youtube and all such video sharing websites, your home will be online forever. Many people might not like that.

[Roman]

And did that necessarily mean that the "stars" did not want to do it or could it have meant that they just had trouble finding appropriate people?

And if there are still fans the likes of many of us have been or the two girls Alizée visited before, I'm sure there are many people who would not mind being on tv and so forth. But, yeah, maybe things are just too different now. Honestly though, I have heard that people are more ok with sharing their lives publicly as they have gotten used to it with all of these social websites and cameras everywhere. Somehow I doubt that people not wanting to be visited in their home has anything to do with it, but I can imagine people not being quite as impressed by this idea as before. Is tv and the allure of fame via tv waning? Are people just not all that impressed by tv in general anymore?

[FanDeAliFee]

I would not want Alizée to visit my house à la SaD. It would just be too SAD when time came for everyone to depart.

Unlike electronic media, Real Life has no Rewind and Play buttons. Maybe one day we'll be able to lease cybernetic pseudo-celebrities with plausibly biomimetic personalities.

P.S. I suspect the reason the TV revival flopped was that the stars which the producers needed for the show to be viable asked for too much money.

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

Doc, a possible Futurama reference? ;) Anybody know what I mean?

Selon le Parisien, à TF1 certains animateurs avaient même postulé pour l’animer, mais pas vraiment persuadée du succès de son retour, TF 1 a également renoncé devant la difficulté à trouver des stars de variétés pour aller chanter chez les gens."


Tf1 give up...:(

They say they don't believe anymore in the concept and tell that they had a lot of difficulties to find stars who accept to sing in people's house... :blink:

(what?? With musical industry crisis, and lack of musical show in France, that's seems really strange to me that those stars did react this way...)


:confused:

Sorry to hear that.

Although, perhaps the problem is the show's name and concept.

Now, perhaps if they changed it to ... "Stars in Unexpected Places" (such as shoe stores). :D

A nice public place - and neutral ground.

...
P.S. I suspect the reason the TV revival flopped was that the stars which the producers needed for the show to be viable asked for too much money.I wonder about that every once in a while. What does Alizée (or any of those people) actually get paid for and how much?
It does seem a bit strange that it seems to me like some of these tv people are getting pretty desperate to put anything on tv that will get people's interest, but at the same time that people are demanding more and want actual good programming, the money has and perhaps continues to dry up because people are just simply losing interest in tv. I don't know if that's total b.s., but frankly, I'm a bit surprised that we humans have continued to watch tv as much as we have. I always figured it would go out of style eventually as people find other ways to create, connect, experience things. But, I guess there's still plenty of passivity and lack of focusable energy on the part of people at home. I don't know. I recently heard that tv watching is as popular as ever; so, is it just that the ad driven sales paradigm in it trouble? Or, maybe there is no problem and this is just business as usual in show biz/tv. ??

All the news about it said that TF1 just don't believe in the show anymore.
(recently, they try to broadcast an "old" show , and they fail to have a good audience...)

Wait so did they cancel it before it airs this time:(?!?!

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

There doesn't seem to be a definite answer to that uestion yet.

[User22]

ok so there is still a chance of her surprising some lucky person:D???

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

Maybe. Very doubtful. But definitely not Amercans.

[User22]

Hmmm, we shall wait to see if the show goes on....

[VVVACCPLPNLY]

It would be great to see. Preferably a male fan this time; change things up.

Today is different than 10 years ago. The intensity of life is much higher.

So much more is competing for peoples attention today that the competition is much more cutthroat. Also, as the number of venues has multiplied, the old controls have partially come off, and the intensity needed to attract attention has increased.

One of the casualties is good "family" programming.

For example, 10 years ago, 10 TV channels was common. If you had cable (and much fewer did) then you might have gotten 40 channels. Now it is more like 400. And everybody gets their own program.

The internet was not yet for the masses. Devices like iPods did not yet exist. Neither did Napster. The computer (PC) was running Windows 98. Cell phones were actually phones, and mostly in the hands of adults.

Today, my daughter sends/receives 8,000 texts a month. She will be on facebook (with about 1,000 friends) and have one or two IMs going at a time (while texting). She has instant access to several hunderd teens at any given moment.

The kids today face pressures we never did. I wish them all a lot of luck keeping their priorities straight.

Bottom line is it is a different world than just 10 years ago. :)

Yah there are no generations...especially when most people 40+ have some form of cellular communication...and know how to operate a computer...

No argument that everything is more intense now. However, imagine what it would have been like to grow up with this intensity. Imagine what the 9th grade would have been like, with all the social pressure added on top of everything else. I am watching my daughter cope with all this and am amazed that she actually can.


As for the singularity... I actually think that 2012 will be more interesting.:)

Honestly though, I've never felt any sort of social pressure. During high school, I never had any sort of issue with trying to fit in, or anything like that.

Either I just didn't care, or I had an excellent group of friends, or maybe I was just downright oblivious to it. I can honestly say that I've never felt any sort of social pressure. Even now in college.

Yah I don't really experience it right now...everything just feels normal and fun...

Maybe it's a girl thing :p

Girls=Drama...espesh when it comes to Prom:rolleyes:

The last part is very true. The only other time a girl will go through so much trouble to get a dress, hair, nails whatever is when she gets married. I'm a senior this year and prom is coming up... Dear Lord save me :(

I think if you look up "digression" you get referred to this thread...

Doc, a possible Futurama reference? ;) Anybody know what I mean?

Yes, though you've made me incredibly hungry for popcorn.
