Also, just prior to going down the steps she turns her head and looks to the left for a few seconds and then looks straight ahead again--- without interrupting her walking. I can't imagine a woman walking more gracefully than this.

This is very observant of you and your theory holds some water.
In the Ella Elle L'a video, right at 3:29, Alizee has a slight down gaze and seems to be judging the stair 3-4 feet beforehand, then she lifts up and looks to the left and does not have to look down again while stepping down. That is confidence.
After reading viewing it, I had to go to La Isla Bonita, where Alizee makes her entrance. Everybody has watched it (most of us over and over and over again). Here she is bumping her hips out as she walks out singing, down two stairs, and finally to the mic stand.
Granted, she had to look down twice to navigate those stairs, but it looks more like a natural blinking of the eyelids. If you look at the top of her head, it is at a very steady height, even though she is glancing around along with moving forward. Very graceful.
Best effect is with sound off.

I wonder if she had practiced walking around with a book on her head to help her with posture and graceful walking?
