Alizée celebrates 17 years of "Moi ... Lolita" with rare photos of Mylène Farmer
17 years ago, France fell under the spell of Alizée thanks to the tube "Moi ... Lolita". To celebrate this special anniversary, the singer wanted to send a message of sympathy to Mylène Farmer, his mentor.

Early summer 2000. Spotted a few months earlier on the show "Graines de star", a young Corsican teenager arrives in the French musical landscape with her first song. Alizée, 15, probably did not imagine that "Me ... Lolita" was going to upset her destiny. This first tube, which will launch the wave "lolita" in France, is the work of a well-known shock duo of the industry: Mylène Farmer and Laurent Boutonnat. In the shade, the tandem makes the young Alizee a universe to measure. The icon of French song, mutine, signs two-way lyrics and takes care of the choreographies and outfits of his protégée. Expert on the subject, Laurent Boutonnat is in charge of composing the melodies and making the clips. Released July 4, 2000, "Me ... Lolita" quickly becomes a phenomenon. Stayed number two of sales for 13 weeks, the single crosses the symbolic bar of the million sales in France. Alizée, propelled in the spotlight, becomes the darling of the French public ... and international. His first album "Gourmandises" will be sold to 4 million copies in the world.

"There are meetings that upset a life"

The collaboration between Mylène Farmer and Alizée will come to an end after the release of the album "Mes currents électriques" in 2003. But the singer, now married and mother of a happy family, has always kept a special affection for the one who launched her career. On her latest album "Blonde" (2014), she had even dedicated a song, "Mylène Farmer", like a wink. "It's not a tribute because I'm not there, to say that I love it, that I miss it, improbable stuff, it's not at all ... I'm talking about the life of a Fan of Mylène Farmer (...) I tell the life of this fan who every day rises with Mylène, lies with Mylène ... This fan could have been me. Because even though I've been singing with "Moi ... Lolita" for 15 years and I've been working with her for 10 years, she's been part of my life. I'm still a fan of her ... She's the artist I most respect and admire, "Alizée told Pure Charts.

So, to celebrate the 17th anniversary of the release of "Moi ... Lolita", Alizée has once again decided to pay tribute to her elder. On social networks, the interpreter of "Tendre rêve" shared several rare shots taken with Mylène Farmer in a park in New York, at a time full of complicity. "There are meetings that upset a life ... It was 17 years ago. Thank you M "commented Alizée in legend. What to please the most nostalgic fans!
