How Degrading...

[HelixSix]

The fact that she doesn't dress AT ALL like she was instructed to before says alot. Just like she doesn't do any kind of dances now that even hint at the possibility of being objectifying.

And do you guys really think she would have said she felt uncomfortable about the clothing she wore knowing that it would throw Mylene under the bus and jeopardize everything to do with the albums? She has always been very smart about what she says in interviews.

The fact that she dresses differently now reflects the fact that she's older now and crafting her own image. And one can either choose to believe what she says in interviews or believe that she's a liar; I prefer the former, although of course I can't prove it.

There are many possible reasons why she would choose to present herself differently now. That she considers her old performances e.g. of JEAM "degrading" is only one of them, and frankly not a very strong one, especially since she specifically states to the contrary.

Well, she also grew up and is at a different phase in her life and career. People can be very different at 17 and at 23.

But your point, I think, is reasonable; her answer is clearly the safest, and to say anything negative about that would be lose-lose. (How well it corresponds to how she REALLY feels is for her to know).

It was interesting when they asked if she kept anything of the old days, and she was like "no, nothing....it was all the production company's stuff anyway". (i.e., no JEAM sailor suit, no raincoat dress, etc. etc.)

That seems to be hella common over there in Europe. Middle and old aged men cheering whenever they see something promiscuous. I was stationed over there and I used to see that a lot. A lot of the military over there would comment how they would like to sleep with little girls that weren't even of age. I'm not saying all European men are perverts. But I guess maybe we're more used to it over here considering what we have on tv on a regular basis. Odd thing is, nudity and softcore porno is pretty regular on lat night tv over there.

Well, the black outfit is ok to me, though I would prefer if she wear something that is less revealing. I just don't like it when some of them considered Alizée as only a sex symbol. If it wasn't for the sexy dance and the butt showing stuff, this people wouldn't have care to know Alizée and keep the JEAM vids in their laptop. Some of my friends are like that. Like now, they don't even know that Alizée has a new album, cause they only wanna watch JEAM and JPVA vids. Anyway, it's not like I care about them, so whatever......
