I'm not sure that there's currently an official publicized address to which we can send fan mail. A better way would be to write a message on her MySpace profile page, which Alizée at one point said that she reads all the posts (she can't respond to them, of course, as she understandably doesn't have time).

You can write her a message here:

Lots of people do that.

Request to add you as her friend.

Don't how if Alizee reads all the daily messages from the site but I have seen some fans showing reply from her :D

before she signed with RCA, people were sending it to polydor/universal i think. so maybe one should send it to Sony BMG/RCA now?

For writing letters, especially to someone like Lily, you'd have to consider all angles of view. I am sure it would be awkward for Lily to be reading a letter with absolutely edgy writing and with a tone so serious and wordy that it almost seems like a business application. Yet, do not be too casual as to seem like an immature fan-boy who sees her as some pretty face and not a human being with flaws and the rest.

My advice for writing a nice and thoughtful fan letter, is bring yourself up to a level of casuality as if she was someone you already know, yet remain anonymous in the facts that you are still a collective fan.

Examples being:
[Too casual]: Hi Lily, I love you so much, you are so pretty, i'm from Maine and I...
[Too serious]: Dear Alizée, you have my respect as someone with great musical capabilities and talent....
[Right Level]: Hello Alizée, I just wanted to drop this letter your way and say how I absolutely enjoy your music, and I would like to say you have great talent and.....

The first example proved how the point was not clear, and that your vision as a fan was blurred by her as a physical person. The second example would make her feel uncomfortable, as you would be speaking in a tone that might sound like you have an extreme knowledge over the matter and you're being the head honcho. However the third example uses its use of friendly tone, yet the intellect to prove your letter is viable and that you are not plain imaginative about it.

No problem, and welcome to the site!

Make sure you absolutely point out the positive comments you are to make about her in the letter, passively and not aggressively.

For example:
I love your new album, it is really a great piece of art, it has such a great diversity and I am sure people of all ears will find it enjoyable in their own way.

To point out constructive criticism, keep it short and sweet, mention it passively and if-only slightly, you want to maintain the fact that you are not trying to change her, but merely point out your critical opinion on her, but always maintain your positive tone and remind her that you are still her fan, and not her enemy in the world of Music.

For example:
I think your Psychedelices album is an absolute brilliant work, I do however do not take too much of a liking to (reason here) mostly because of the fact that it just doesn't click with me in a way as your other works have, but I am and will be a true fan, and I hope to see more music come from you in the future!

Another would be to make sure she ENJOYS the letter, keep it comedic, point out stuff, however don't write the letter like a smart@$$ and throw in odd comments like what Ben Stiller would write to Jack Black.

For Example:
I loved your outfit on your"Love is All" performance, it was stylish and it really showed your fun side, I have horrible sync with my appearance, I can put on the best clothes and look like plain joe :D, just goes to show how awesome you are!
