Which is the most underrated quality of Alizée?

[Aragorn97]

Hi, everyone!

I think Alizée is terribly underrated from many points of view, but, as mentioned above, what do you think is the most considerable thing about her which isn't given enough credit?
I'm talking about both her personality and her professional talents. So, let me know your thoughts on this

A few of us have said her voice isn't that strong and I think it would be much better if she had a voice coach and spent more time in the sound studio than the dance studio. There are times we get a glimpse of the beauty of her voice, but we never really get a 'sustained' look at what her voice is capable of.

Do you think she trusted too much in her voice? Or did she simply neglect this aspect?

Her ability to go for what she wants and be happy, despite all the armchair experts' stupid and disgusting opinions

She was very happy in 2004 when she left Mylène listening to the armchair expert Jérémy.

At this point, we are always talking about the same topic in every single thread lol

I completely agree. Her voice is her most valuable asset. If she loses it, she loses everything. If she unleashes its potential, she gains a lot...

A coach is needed, as well as a producer, and the next video explains why:

She's dealt with armchair experts throughout her career, but perhaps especially after she left MF. It was MF's delusional diehard fans that were the first to write Alizée off and they have never missed an opportunity to trash the rest of her work. We'll never really know what happened between 2004-2009, with MF and with the J-man... but I suppose the MF diehards will always have their pet theories

Despite her 20's being bumpy, one doesn't have to look any further than our own 20's (for those 30 and over) to count our mistakes during that part of our lives. But across her life so far in total, Alizee is a winner. From winning an art contest as a child, a singing competition and being good enough to get hand picked by Mylene, being a sensation in France for 5 years after two blowout albums, winning DALS and a celebrity pastry competition, co-owning a dance studio with a great husband, and now expanding her family. All that by age 35 in very impressive. She still has hundreds of thousands around the world that love her and her integrity is intact.

Maybe that is her most underrated quality - her integrity. She didn't melt down when her singing career started failing and do desperate things she would regret later. She appears to have lived a pretty clean life.
