Don't be offended

Thanks.

But anyway, to be clear, all I argue about is
1/ Alizée réaction
As I said ,especially if she don't get your "Artistic Grant concept", she could be surprised ...maybe more... But , to be less negative, she could also just laugh and say " Those crazy americans ! " . In any case, it will not help , i think.
2/ The media ( french one first)
I'm pretty sure they will not speak about it, and if they do, it will not be the way you want it.
So, the closest principle I found to your idea is
http://www.mymajorcompany.com/
Here, you send money to participate to the music project of a new artist. Which means your becoming one of hundred of "little" producers of the album to come.
it will be the best thing to do, to help an artist to create his album. (here, you help a project , not a person, and you receive dividends if it sell well)
Unfortunatly, Institubes seems not working like this...

Well, I am flattered
... But I'm not sure I want to have such "official" responsabilies... anyway, on limited actions, i can offer you some help.
The best I can do , I think its to give you some advices about some strange rituals and way of thinking of French Tribes...

I was not speaking about the real conditions of each countries... Only about the cliché we ( as French) or French media use to have...
(I don't say that's what Alizée think, just the way popular media will chose to present it.)
One again , my opinion is that our goddess need more
buzz than money.
And she need it NOW. ( when the news about her return are still fresh.)
