I'm not the type of listen to pop music and I'm definitely NOT the type of guy who obsesses over celebrities. In fact, I've NEVER felt this way about ANY celebrity.
A few years ago, a friend linked me to a video of Alizée performing "La Isla Bonita." I thought she was beautiful...but that wasn't it. There was something about her mannerisms and the way she carries herself that really won me over. I live in New York and I'm sorry to say that the majority of the women I've met here have been arrogant, condescending, mean, and overall very Un-Alizée. *Note* - obviously not ALL NYC women are like this, but chance would have it that the ones I've met have mostly been this way with few exceptions.
So I naturally wanted to learn more about Alizée after I saw that video. I started downloading her albums, beginning with Gourmandises. I must have listened to "Moi...Lolita" about 1000 times. Before I knew it, I was in love with her. I'm only posting this on this specific forum because I know there will be others here who understand my situation. If I were to tell anyone else, they would surely chalk it up to just celebrity obsession. But Alizée is so much more than a mere celebrity. She brings light to any dark situation. She gives me joy no matter how much things are dragging me down. She sustains me.
I haven't had a girlfriend in over 2 years now. I don't find anyone attractive except for Alizée. This is becoming a serious problem for me. Even when approached by a beautiful woman, I'm just not interested if she doesn't have Alizée's sweet, gentle characteristics.
Here's the reality of most women that are out there nowadays in America:
- Many are overly liberal and politically correct nazi's who will get offended by the slightest thing
- Many of them will preach open-mindedness and quality of character and yet always try to go for the tallest, best looking, richest guy
I'm sick of it.
Alizée on the other hand, is the perfect balance of everything good and pure. You can get a good sense of what someone is like by the way they respond to various situations. In interviews, Alizée just projects a sweet vibe that really can't be faked. I don't even know if she's aware of it, but her inner beauty comes out during these interviews. I even remember one time on that Fun TV interview where she described herself as the type of person who "puts others ahead of herself." My heart literally skipped a beat when I saw that part. And her reaction to opening that Tinkerbell toy? God help me.
I love everything about Alizée. My friend tries to make fun of me for liking her by constantly making fun of her "big head." I LOVE HER BIG HEAD. SHE'S ADORABLE.
In conclusion, if anyone has any clue as to how I can regain my sanity after this Alizée spell, please let me know.

LOL, your story is almost identical to my own... it's almost scary (how you discovered Alizée, being further sucked in by her mannerisms, getting hooked by the FunTV 1h avec interview, the never being into celebrities, the feeling of being a little insane/off for a few weeks, your age even :p). So to say I know where you're coming from would actually be a bit of an understatement. Also it's a recurring story, with little variations, for many of us. Welcome to the team :cool: TheBarret gives some great answers in his post. But yeah, it will probably be a good year before you kinda recover a sense of pre-Alizée normalcy. As long as you don't go too overboard ;), I say, enjoy the ride :)
Also if you haven't yet, this is a must watch (there are other "must watch" but this is pretty much king among them):
Strap yourself in, buddy...
