I see now. That makes total sense :13:
Problem is, one day this will pass, and she'll look at the mirror and see what she did to herself... :(
But maybe she likes tattoo and won't regret making them one day... :D

Therapist says that tattoos are a way for the teens to clearly show his body belong to them , not their parents.
Not many girls had her body being exposed all over the world, in torrents of pictures ( some stolen, like the one above) , debated in several languages and produce thousand of comments (not all subtle) about her forms.

Dont' this create a feeling of being dispossess of your own body?

Could this be a way to say " this is MY body, not yours. I can modify it, even in a way you don't like."

Or maybe I'm looking too far...

I think the "new" Alizée has been slowly transforming into the present "tattooed Lili" state since the last album; Une Enfant Du Siècle. I mean think about it: out of all the possible theme albums she could have done, why choose something so dark? My guess is that she has been drawn to it due to whatever events have transpired in her life in recent years. As for the attention thing, this is also evident in the frequency of her twitter posts as of late.

I've always used Alizée as a constant in my life. No matter what's going on, I use the thought of her to lift me from all the negative thoughts that bring me down from time to time. In a way, after she broke off to do her on thing for "Psych" and beyond, it shattered the illusionary image I've had of her. I always thought, "well I don't care if I'm unhappy or feeling down, because knowing that she's happy is enough to make me feel better."

But she is human, after all. As ALS pointed out, she sort of sped through her young life because she was so busy and eventually got married to Jeremy when she was still technically a teenager. Now that I think about it, she might not have even fully been aware of who she was yet. 19 years old is still very young, and I can tell you that the person I was at 19 was COMPLETELY DIFFERENT than the person I was at say, 23. And that's only the difference of a few years. It is entirely possible and probable that she has had a number of new experiences over the years that have changed her. Her opinion on things might not be the same anymore. She still likes Nutella, she's still beautiful, and she still sings like an angel, but she's not the same person.

In a way, this all forces me to see her as something other than some perfect being. It is good in that it pushes me out of my fantasy world and forces me to face real life rather than to use Alizée as a shield whenever something bothers me. :o

But...I miss her. I miss the old her. I miss the version of her that some of you say was simply a role that she was playing in order to sell tickets and albums. I miss the way the old her made me feel - like life is worth living no matter how bad things can get. She was absolutely instrumental in turning me into the person I am today. I have plenty I need to work on, but I never would have made it this far without her.

I hope she figures out exactly what she wants out of life and just goes for it. Right now it feels like she's experimenting in order to find out who she is.

The problem is that she is a public person, is a pop singer. if she was out of cameras and microphones, I do not know where she would be working , wouldn't have too many tattoos. she must to respect the nature of her body.

Those have always been my exact thoughts about it.

She's an adult. If she wants to get some more tattoo's it's up to her.
Doesn't bother me either way.

At least in this picture there is no tattoos in the zone im actually staring at so i don't notice the tattoos :dance:

Edit:

Yea and she was very well built model though it seems shes starting to put on mileage FASTTT especially with all this aftermarket China crap parts she keeps installing!

Here we go again.

Well I think Alizée has always liked the concept of tattoos.

Here's a couple of temporary one's she sported on her arm when she was just sixteen.

I have wondered why she keeps getting cartoon type of tattoo's, but then it hit me once again that she is a child at heart. :)

Well she's mentioned her love for cartoons in certain interviews aswell. Offcourse there's many reasons to get a tattoo though.. I've heard some people like the pain involved in getting one and I've heard for others it can even be a spiritual experience.

Some think she's trying to seek attention but that's crazy if true and I don't believe it is because she's loved by so many people anyway and she knows it!

I think family and friends are what matters most to her but unfortuantly I think she's addicted to tattoos and addiction in any form can't be good but like others have said it could be worse.

Obviously she does or she would not be getting them. the question is why>


I agree.

I think any depression (if there ever was any) was 2 years ago. She is coming out the other end of the breakup - this was obvious at LE.


Those tatoos are very well planned and done. On that woman they look good. However, she is not Alizée.

Alizée is having them done piecemeal. No real planning. The one exception is Tinkerbell - which I think is well done.

However, I believe she is sinking into addictive behavior. The tatoos are being added faster and faster, with the newer ones starting to look to me like graffiti - just being thrown on wherever there is a hole, with no real planning.

She has always been careful about her appearance, so this behavior is uncharacteristic.


It could be. Unfortunately, unlike a slice of pizza, these are essentially permanent.


Agreed.


Perhaps.


If it is, then as you say it is a teen mentality, and is a reaction to life. People who react are not fully in control. There is some inner sense of lack or powerlessness that causes them to manifest this behavior.

Others in a similar frame of mind will support the behavior. People with similar neurosis tend to gravitate together and reinforce a behavior as "normal".

This is why I believe dancerman may be a bad influence on her.

...because she likes them. :p

That's my whole point, that maybe there isnt some kind of under lying reason, or ulterior motive. Maybe she just simply....likes...tattoos...

The woman in the picture you quoted. Did she have an identity crisis? Was she trying to reclaim her youth? Or could she have simply....liked...tattoos....


I'm just saying that while the other ideas presented, (identity crisis, reclaiming youth) could be true, it could also be true that Alizée may be getting more tattoos because she simply...likes....tattoos...:)

Amen to that Brian.
No hidden messages. No conspiracy.
She just likes tattoos. Along with millions and millions of others.

I got an appointement today at St Lazare Station. Near a certain tattoo shop...
So I decide to take a look to the "house of evil" :p


http://danbousq.perso.sfr.fr/post/Tin-tin.JPG




And if you turn your head to the right, you can see another famous place...

http://danbousq.perso.sfr.fr/post/moulin.JPG

:D

Of course she can do what she wants. I think we all agree on that.
I don't even dislike tattoos...
I am just a little bit disappointed on her taste when it comes to location and choice of tattoos.
She even went for coloured ones...

I would rather see her whole arm or back covered with a full tattoo of a dragon, flowers, or whatever, something more "harmonious" that these random tattoos she is getting now.


I understand the people who says: "I dont care what she does as long as she is happy". But so far I did not read anything like: "I love her tattoos and the way they all look..."




She will always be an attractive woman, but if she does not stop at some point, it is going to be ridiculous...











She is going to look like this:

Did you go inside? Do they have "private rooms" for famous people? If not, then you might get lucky to see Alizee "half-naked" :eek: while getting more tattoos. :D
If that's the case, if I see her there, I probably would get any tattoos myself (even though I currently don't have one) just to be able to stay there as long as possible. :))

I stay in front of it for a minute and yes, I think there is kind of private rooms , like a massage parlor.

Has she posted a full view of the new tat yet? I'm curious to see what the finished product looks like.

Strangely enough and possibly of no relevance whatsoever but i'm getting a new tat myself in the next few weeks.
No in Paris though.......

haha. It is a problem, but I wouldn't say it's a mental disorder. That might be taking it a bit too far.

Well my dear, let me offer my assistance in this matter. :13: :13: :13:



After much searching, and by searching I mean seeing if I remember, NO, we have not yet seen a full picture of the new tattoo.

She has Tattoo-itis! :p

http://distilleryimage1.instagram.co...3804a181_7.jpg

I wish she would knock that crap off! Alizee is beautiful and I hate to see her keep marking up her beautiful body. One or two tattoos, ok, but not to be the tattooed woman. Please, Alizee, enough is enough! Give us a break!

Unfortunately I think the main man in her life is dancerman and rather than being the type of guy who should talk some sense into this girl, I feel he is more likely to be the type to say to her "You go girl.". I think we need to hope she meets a man soon who has a head on his shoulders.

Didn't she say not long ago that there is going to be some type of tatoo event, I think in Paris early next year, maybe at Rin tin tin or whatever his name is? If it didn't already happen and it is going to take place next year, I think she is going to try and ramp up for it. There will be more tatoos. Not tatoo...........................tatoos.

As her loyal fans, we need to hold an online intervention for her. So how about we set a date and a time, and everyone sends her this Tweet (or something similar): "Alizee, please stop writing all over your beautiful body. Love you anyway."

I don't think she'd go for a man who would try to discourage her from doing what she wants with her own body. If I were a close friend and she asked for my opinion, I would say, "I personally wouldn't get any more tattoos, I think you look beautiful without them, but if you really want to keep getting them I'm not going to stop you."

Now, if it were something like a drinking problem or drugs, there'd definitely be reason for intervention, but it's not quite that serious.

mmm... :13:

The problem with this is she might feel isolated and refrain from using twitter again. Or still get tattoos but stop sharing us her pictures. :(

Nail....head!
Words of wisdom (as per usual) from Azhiri.

Tattoo? Did someone say Tattoo?

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...illechaize.jpg

I never heard much from Jeremy over the years but maybe he was keeping her from doing things like this? I was never lead to believe he didn't have a head on his shoulders so maybe he was a big part of her not screwing up her body like she is now. I think she feels like a prison escapee and is going wild with her freedom.

She could be doing worse things but there seems to be no sign of this pattern slowing down. Tattoo parlors aren't the best place to meet people that will improve your life constructivly...

GREAT IDEA!!!


Noooooo.

(I was wondering who would play the Tattoo card.) :)

What's wrong with tattoo parlors?

It seems like a lot of you have a very old fashioned view on tattoos. The idea that tattoo parlors are dark, grimy, hell holes full of thugs and low lives...just is not true. Now sure, there are some places like that. But Most of them are very nice. Most of the parlors downtown where I live, are BEAUTIFUL on the inside. Well light, great interior, CLEAN and the artists are really nice, and cool to talk to.


As for the people who go there....times have changed. As I said...it's not bikers and gang members, plenty of everyday people, hard working, good people, go to these places. The kinds of people you would meet at a tattoo shop are the same people you could meet anywhere else.


But honestly, it really doesn't matter if we like or dislike the tattoos...if she wants more, she will get more.


And like Helixsix and others have said, there are A LOT of worse things she could be doing. So if at the end of the day, the WORST news we get about Alizée is that she's getting a new tattoo.....we should be thankful.

Well I've seen too many girls think they were doing harmless things only to regret them later on. And so far Alizée has done two of the most permanent things possible; having a kid at young age and getting tattoo's. I don't endorse drugs but at least they can be temporary.

I've had the view about her music that you have about her tattoo's since it's her choice. After being bossed around by Mylene for years I'm glad she wanted to make her own music even if it was bad since she could learn from it or go in a different direction. Other people found it hard to sit by and watch the mostly mediocre music and so they spoke up, mostly out of concern for her career. But it's different for me now because all these tattoo's can have an effect on her upcoming album and her life. Maybe the tattoo's won't distract from the image being portrayed in the music but I doubt it and I doubt the suits up in management are happy with what she is doing.

Let's fast forward 12-18 months from now. The album meant to revive her career is sunk because of her evolving identity crisis, her "marriage" was a bust, nobody wants to hire her, and the only good thing to come out of it all was her daughter which can be argued was a result of young love foolishness in the first place. It's possible.

I have a feeling she is not really grasping that the tattoos will never go away. I think we can all agree on one thing, she's in a stage of her personal life right now where a lot of things are changing, and she's changing with them. She will keep changing. The things that are relevant to her today won't necessarily be relevant five years from now, or ten years, or twenty years from now. Those tattoos will still be there. It seems like these tattoos are all being added on a whim during what seems to be a turbulent frame in her life. Are those really the best circumstances under which to get a big, noticeable tattoo?

We can infer from past events that she rushes into certain decisions without thinking them through. I have a feeling these tattoos are an example.

Few things:

1. Tattoos are a personal choice. To quote the Diff'rent Strokes theme (:p), "The world don't move to the beatin' of just one drum. What be right for you, may not be right for some". Just because you think they are a bad choice doesn't make it so for everyone else. Besides there are plenty of tattooed artists out there.

2. While taking drugs might be temporary, the effects can be permanent.

3. Where is everyone getting this "identity crisis" from? She's hanging out with friends, having a good time, doing what she wants. She got a couple of tattoos. SO WHAT? Unless I'm mistaken, that doesn't seem to be the M.O. of someone who is going through a crisis. To me she's living life.

A couple? In a few months, she'll probably have 10. That's a lot of tattoos, in my opinion. Call me old fashioned, but I just find tattoos so trashy. There are other ways to express yourself, and tattoos are becoming the "trendy" way to do it. I think Alizee is influenced very easy and like Azhiri said, makes decisions on a whim. Not so good for something so permanent. Man, it just disappoints me. Now she's gonna be like every other overly tattooed freak that thinks they're so cool and edgy. Whatever, not my body.

I can quote myself, can't I?
I found the post where it was mentioned about the tatoo event and it is taking place next year, so I'm sure Alizee will want to make a big splash there so I feel there will be at least a couple more tatoos in her future.

Meh; if she wants to be an idiot that's her problem! Not really anything we could or should say; it is her idiotic choice to make!
