As usual, here's the French transcription first. I've just posted my translation to garçoncanadien so he can improve my English before I post it here then...

French:
[Flavie] ...nelle de fin d'année. Bonsoir Alizée.
[Alizée] Bonsoir
[Flavie] Ça va ?
[Alizée] Oui, très bien
[Flavie] Alors je le disais tout à l'heure Alizée, vous avez démarré votre carrière, alors là pour le coup, sur les chapeaux de roue avec l'album Gourmandises. Ça a été un véritable coup de foudre entre le public français et vous. Ça s'était vendu à combien de...
[Fabrice] D'albums ? Plus d'un million d'exemplaires. Et alors tous les singles ont marché en plus, hein ?
[Flavie] Oui c'est ça. Disque de diamants. Alors oui ?
[Fabrice] Il y a eu quatre singles qui ont tous été disques d'or, c'est impressionnant.
[Flavie] Ouais, la totale. Ce nouvel album, Mes Courants Électriques, apparemment va suivre la même, le même chemin
[Alizée] Ben on espère
[Flavie] En tout cas c'est ce qu'on lui souhaite. Quel effet, comme ça, de cumuler les récompenses du public ?
[Alizée] Ben ça fait toujours chaud au cœur et de savoir surtout que le public est fidèle parce que quand on fait un premier album, on a toujours peur que le deuxième album, ben que le public ne suive pas et euh.. j'ai beaucoup de chance parce que le public est fidèle avec moi et je le remercie.
[Flavie] Quels sont les chanteurs français que tu as aimés particulièrement cette année, qui t'ont particulièrement touchée ?
[Alizée] Ben il y a beaucoup... beaucoup de nouveautés cette année. J'aime beaucoup Diam's et euh.. parce que je suis fan de son album que j'écoute souvent
[Flavie] C'est bien parti aussi au niveau des ventes hein ? C'est récent mais...
[Fabrice] Ah bien sûr, c'est DJ [??? not sure he means that]
[Flavie] Oui exactement
[Alizée] Et puis ma petite préférée, c'est Jenifer
[Flavie] Et la petite préférée, c'est Jenifer. Jenifer ? Son dernier album a fait un carton ?
[Fabrice] Ah ben aussi oui, c'est impressionnant oui. Je crois que c'est sept cent mille albums, donc double disque de platine. L'album Jenifer.
[Flavie] Voilà Alizée a les mêmes goûts que vous dans le public qui achetez ces disques. Cette soirée, c'est une progression de disques d'or vers ceux de diamants donc plus d'un million d'exemplaires vendus. Euh, selon toi Alizée, qui est recordman des ventes de 2003 ? Qui a vendu le plus de disques cette année ?
[Alizée] Alors j'ai deux petites idées. Euh, peut-être Renaud ou peut-être Patrick Bruel avec son dernier album, "Entre-deux"
[Flavie] On verra bien. Tout ça c'est pour la fin de cette émission
[Alizée] D'accord
[Flavie] Merci beaucoup d'être venue Alizée...
[Alizée] Ben merci
[Flavie] ...on retrouve "À Contre Courant". Le deuxième album d'Alizée, c'est "Mes Courants Électriques", euh ben c'est dans les bacs après avoir sillonner la France depuis la fin du mois d'août, eh ben il y aura la scène du Zénith, Wow, attention le Zénith de Paris le 17 janvier, prenez date ! Merci beaucoup Alizée.


English:
[Flavie] ...end of year. Good evening Alizée.
[Alizée] Good evening
[Flavie] Are you doing well?
[Alizée] Yes, very well
[Flavie] So, I was just saying a moment ago, Alizée, you started your career, well I must say, on the fast track with the album Gourmandises. It's been a real love at first sight between the French audience and you. It sold, how many...
[Fabrice] How many albums? More than one million copies. And all singles did well too, eh?
[Flavie] Yes that's it. Disc of diamonds. So, yes?
[Fabrice] Four singles have been released, which have all been discs of gold, it's impressive.
[Flavie] Yeah, all of them. This new album, Mes Courants Électriques, is apparently going to follow the same route
[Alizée] We hope so
[Flavie] Anyway that's what we hope for it. How does it feel to receive all these rewards from the audience?
[Alizée] Well, it always warms my heart and knowing above all that the audience is faithful because when you make a first album, you always fear that that the second one, well that the audience won't still like it and err.. I'm very lucky because the audience is faithful to me and I thank them.
[Flavie] Who are the French singers that you have particularly enjoyed this year, who have particularly touched you?
[Alizée] Well there were a lot... a lot of new things this year. I like Diam's a lot and err... because I'm a fan of her album, that I listen to very often
[Flavie] Sales started very well too eh? It's recent but...
[Fabrice] Of course, it's DJ [??? not sure he means that]
[Flavie] Yes exactly
[Alizée] And my little favorite is Jenifer
[Flavie] And the little favorite is Jenifer. Jenifer? Her last album was a hit?
[Fabrice] Yes also, it's impressive yes. I think it sold 700,000 copies, so double disc of platinum. The Jenifer album.
[Flavie] So Alizée has the same tastes as you in the audience, who buy those discs. This evening, we see this album progress from discs of gold to discs of diamonds, so more than one million copies sold. Er, in your opinion, Alizée, who's the record holder of sales in 2003? Who sold the most discs this year?
[Alizée] Well, I have two little ideas. Err, maybe Renaud or maybe Patrick Bruel with his latest album, "Entre-deux"
[Flavie] We'll see that indeed. All this is for the end of this show
[Alizée] Ok
[Flavie] Thanks a lot for coming Alizée...
[Alizée] Well thank you
[Flavie] ...we'll hear "À Contre Courant" again. The second album by Alizée is "Mes Courants Électriques", err well it's in all stores, after sweeping across France since August, and well there will be the stage of le Zénith. Wow, watch out, le Zénith de Paris on January 17th, make your reservation! Thanks a lot Alizée.

Note to reader: The discs of ______ are various Music Awards in France. They are awarded based on how many discs you sell.

BTW, are my transcriptions of the original French useful for some people here? (even if it's only one of you, I'll keep on doing it anyway because I prefer to translate from the original written down).
I ask because I'm sure that if you follow them while playing the video in the background, I'm sure it will help a lot those of you who want to improve their pronunciation of the French language. Better than any book lessons (although they're useful too of course!)
