I'd go with the first option. Contrary to what the name of these Events implies, she has actually been performing for them as a singer, not a dancer.

I'd say she should be a lot more comfortable on stage now than at the Jean-Paul Gaultier Show in 2018.

If singing is her passion and her future, I will repeat what I said a long time ago. She needs to forget pop, at least the type where she would need to dance and sing. We already know she is not the next Alizee.

However, she is an amazing soprano. She was "discovered" by the nation when she sang "I Will Always Love You". She just stood there and sang and mesmerized the audience and judges. Some solo artists don't need a light show and backup dancers to grab the audience's attention.

She should concentrate on her natural talent, in my opinion. Modeling and all that might have been a fun diversion, but the clock is ticking and she is entering her prime years and could really exceed expectations with the right song set and manager.

Julia : un nouveau single?

So far, she's only done that for SEXTO. And I think that's because Mylène and Laurent chose to involve Alizée as a sort of "passing of the torch".

She'll be fine. :)

Edit:

Here's hoping. And if it involves Mylène and Laurent, even better!

The air is getting thicker as the latest rumor on this matter states, that the official announcement is imminent. Supposedly, the new title is called "Chut" (eng. "Hush"). No info on who's behind it, but Mylène should be a safe bet.

More on this, as it develops. Though a rumor should always be taken with caution.

Julia is among that list. Songtitle included.

Another Website has reported on this as well, though unfortunately the Link no longer works. Perhaps an early Leak?

Official Statement:

JULIA – "Chut"

Text and music: Julia Fiquet, Alban Lico, Fabien Mettay, Anton Wick

Julia was introduced to music at a very early age, during her childhood in Haute-Savoie. When she was 16 years old, she started posting covers on the Internet. Mylène Farmer and Laurent Boutonnat spotted her and decided to write an album for her: ” Passe…comme tu sais “, released in June 2020. Julia now takes off with a title she co-wrote, “Chut”. This song, which she wishes to Eurovision, plays with the codes and preconceptions that people have about her and the young women of her generation.

A good song imo, but after I listened to it, I didn't really care to listen to it a second time. It will be interesting to see how it is received in France.
