I never thought she presented herself as an "object whenever she appear[ed] in the public eye," I always thought she presented an image, granted it was a Lolita image marked by sexy outfits and the like, but what she was selling was her music not her body. If people bought her albums just because they thought she was attractive, then that's another story. Other than that, I agree with your post, I think I've mentioned it before, but the first thing that attracted me towards Alizée was her beauty, I didn't even like JEAM (the song) instantly, it had to grow on me.

Like lefty said, it's probably true, and just like him, I also believe she likes the emphasis on her music.
