Yes, it was pretty cool for me to be able to just understand some of what was spoken with no translation necessary. It's like being lifted from poverty, though I'm still not really quite there yet. I also agree that Alizée was easier to understand than others, though she also slurs some words sometimes like a typical native speaker.

Still, Alizée seems to usually have a way of coming off pretty laid back. In this interview it seems to me that she was pretty comfortable with them and just having a nice chat. She did have to fight her way into the conversation at times since they seemed to want to talk over her. I've noticed that a lot in various interviews with French people: interrupting each other. I don't know if that's more a French thing or just that I'm paying more attention.

Agree. It is kind of funny. Alizée has a very laid back kind of laugh.

But you have to appreciate it costs a lot of money to lease (as well as decorate and staff) a facility like <i>Château Champlâtreux</i> - so much, in fact, they their Web site does not even quote a price (so they can <i>means-test</i> leasing parties during vacancies).

and it gave certain people visiting Paris (such as myself) the chance to go visit something Alizé-esk.
