BOUTONNAT IS BACK : Julia , the new Alizée ? - Page 14

I think a number of us still follow Julia on Instagram or Facebook. I think we all expected an album from Julia in 2019, maybe after Mylene completed her concert tour. Instead Julia released a few songs with videos, did a little modeling, went on vacation to S. Africa.

A few weeks ago, Julia posted a video of a machine cutting a vinyl record. By her post, I am assuming it is her full length album upcoming.

Then here in the last few days, she posts an interesting IG story.

The French translates to "9th district of Paris" and then she says "The Come Back".

This is just my theory, but I think Mylene made the decision to rebrand Julia into something other than the new lolita. People were commenting in the SEXTO video that they heard Alizee was in it. For many of us, there is no replacement for Alizee when she was the protege of Mylene. I think Mylene miscalculated when she thought she could introduce somebody to follow in Alizee's footsteps and become another sensation in France. There is no following in Alizee's footsteps. She is just too unique.

Too much time has passed and Julia is looking at being 19 before long, so the success she achieves will have to be on her own merit. She is not a fresh new face anymore, so the album will have to be very good. It looks like we don't have to wait too much longer.

So I took her post of "The Come Back" to mean that the first go around did not go so well for her and Julia acknowledges that. This is the next shot.

Her path to stardom is definitely evolving at a lot slower pace than Alizee's did. It'll be interesting to see what develops with her career, that's if she has a singing career.

As many predicted, Mylène is widely exploiting the sexual aspect of Julia.

Julia - Et toi mon amour

Note that the clip doesn't contain low-res versions on YouTube. Is it intentional?

Thanks for sharing. It's always a pleasure to see Mylène's brilliant touch.

Agreed!

I like Julia. I wish her well. I think she's a beautiful young lady. I think she's a very nice young lady from the little I know about her. I like her voice. I like the music. It's an interesting video. It's a pleasant song, but quite frankly, as far as this video, I'm one and done.

Same.

Promoting Julia as the new lolita failed. Alizee's got a lock on that. Then came the wait as Julia turned 18 and Mylene finished her tour. Now Julia can be sexploited like all the rest.

Keep in mind that Alizee came onto the scene when the global mood was very optimistic. She was like a breath of fresh air. Julia is releasing her album in a couple of weeks, and the global mood is just the opposite. Good luck to her because she will need it.

Well, they're trying to keep pace with the times. A girl walking briskly to a hospital due to a suspicion on some unknown disease is very relevant today.

If I am not mistaken, the guy used in this video is the same one used in SEXTO?

Yes, Jamie Foxx with a Grace Jones haircut.

That's funny, but I guess to get a full understanding of what is going on here, we have to look at the lyrics, but I don't feel this song is worth the effort.
