Wasabi, SHE doesn't really care if she's a one-album artist or not, she's already been in 31 movies (yeah, i checked now, too) AND written AND directed. QUADRUPLE threat. And she's 28 years old, and all of 5'2". Solid nitroglycerin, if there was such a thing. She doesn't NEED a @#$%$ contract with some record company. She'll be fine!

She's amazing right? An amazing concoction of stunning beauty and talent squashed into that tiny frame. (Like with Alizée, her nose is too cute! It sounds weird even to me.. "nose is too cute".. *shrug*)

"What? Little ol' me?"


Still though, before I declare myself, I'd like to know that in the future, more music will come from her. I know she'll be in plenty of movies, but seeing all those negative comments casts doubts about future albums.

Will she do more albums? My magic eight ball says "most assuredly". At least one more, the "sophomore" album - it's so customary, it's the law.

On the other hand, I could be wrong, but I wouldn't expect she'll do a lot more American movies in the future. There's another good reason to learn French !

I've been pronouncing it wrong for years. I really need to install my Rosetta stone! Thanks, DrSmith!

[Quinetiam]

Aye, I think I've got it from my favorite tunes of late.

Nicolas Canteloup in La Jument da Michao

"en----fwaw-ay"

or for us Canadians

'on-fwah-eh'

I always thought it was "Leh en-fwa"
