<center><big><u>AMBASSADOR</u> SCRUFFYDOG, IF YOU PLEASE!</big></center>
Earlier today, on nobody's authority at all, I sent a note to the Virgin Megastore on the Champs-Élysées, reporting that 10% of the hits on Alizée's official Website now come from the USA, and that Alizée America is sending an "ambassador" to the autograph session at their store, to purchase multiple copies of her album for the Corsican girl to sign. I further inquired about a quantity limit and referred them to this thread in case they are dubious. Naturally, I will report on any reply I receive. Tie, tails and sash for you, Scruff?

Damned if I know why either Virgin or Alizée would be against multi-level marketing of the type you suggest! <a href="http://alizeeamerica.com/forums/showpost.php?p=152308&postcount=93">A sale is a sale.</a> Is the labor of signing so arduous that Alizée would object to keeping at it before her hand got tired?
BTW, it is not so hard now to replicate a signature and even make it appear to non-experts to be a pen-written original. I never have committed, nor will I commit fraud by misrepresenting things in commercial transactions, but in doing historical recreations for cities celebrating an anniversary, I have fabricated replicas of copyright-free historic documents and artworks which are now missing (or may even have never existed), for the purpose of honest fictional spectacle. (P.S. Alizée is not really Juliette.)
So you might imagine that I would be reluctant to pay a premium for an autographed good whose provenance I could not reliably authenticate, i.e. including stuff on eBay, too.

Don't worry at all!!!
About a year ago now, I published a <a href="http://bellsouthpwp.net/d/o/docdtv/Alizee/2009May.htm">fan page</a> in which I detailed a suggestion that Alizée make a revised version of the Joan Osborne <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbAeTywPiP4#t-1m22s">music video</a> for <i>Saint Teresa</i>.
A key scene consists of rescuing a goldfish from a toilet bowl and tossing it into a filled tub. If my dreams have come true, the Corsican girl has been practicing this for a whole year now, so you are quite safe!
