Just to keep things in perspective, what some noisy French amateur critics say is less important than the fact that the video for Les Collines has been getting beaucoup hits in France. French people do have a certain reputation for rudeness. In the end, what will matter is how the album sells and how her concerts sell.
AND -- regardless of her intention to put France first, it is a reality that she IS an international star, not just a French one. If the album sells poorly in France but is a hot hit abroad, that may hurt her feelings, which is sad, but it still means the album is a success.
Sometimes the world comes knocking and one's preconceptions need to be set aside. This may be true for Her Grace, as it is at least once in life for most of us.
