So that's my theory. There is a small group of fans seated toward the front of the stage holding up cameras. Alizee is aware of this--- and so at 0:53, just for the heck of it, she flashes a face scrunch right at the camera.
Its a deliberate action on Alizee's part. (I know it happens fast, but this is yet another demonstration of how good Alizee's reflexes are.)
Watch it again... the face scrunch is being directed right at the camera--- am I right? Its unmistakeable.

There was a group of 6 or 7 fans together pretty close to the front, including a some members of this forum. Scruffy was there with them. Jenny was the one taking this video. She had a camera with good zoom capability, which distorts the perspective of where Alizee is in relation to the audience.
Here is a good picture of the stage and the audience. This scene requires being on the rear part of the stage because it is widest. As you can see, the audience is not right up to the stage.
This picture is also from the production version of LE 2013. You can see Alizee on the right side at the approximate time that it happens. This was one of several cameras going and they cut from one to another frequently. Alizee is not seen very much on the produced version, and you would have to take my word for it that a camera was not at that angle she was looking at.
Also, this song was sung very early in the show. Alizee was not aware of this group of fans until Garou pointed it out later in the show. Scruffy put out a video not long ago that shows this. It was in the second half of the show where she waves and smiles at them.

So, I disagree with your theory. I think the scrunch is just something she does, an extension of her personality. You seem pretty set on thinking just the opposite, and it's fine if we disagree.
