Alizee's physical coordination: a major part of her x-factor

[Mr Coucou]

Alizee's physical coordination is remarkable.

You can see it in the way Alizee walks. Here she is walking across the stage at the end of Ella Ella L'a:

(To see how graceful and well-coordinated she is, I recommend watching it at 1/2 speed.)

You can see how gracefully she puts one foot in front of the other. Alizee's head doesn't bob as she walks-- its like she's on rails. Also notice the steps at the edge of stage--- she looks down at them prior to reaching the steps-- but when she is going down the steps she is looking straight ahead, not looking down at her feet. Also, just prior to going down the steps she turns her head and looks to the left for a few seconds and then looks straight ahead again--- without interrupting her walking. I can't imagine a woman walking more gracefully than this.

I think Alizee's physical coordination is a significant part of her x-factor, and its not just the dancing, its evident in everything she does-- walking, gesturing, etc. I think its evident in Scruffy's autograph video and its evident in that video of her BBQ'ing in her backyard. There is a graceful precision to all of Alizee's physical actions--- it gives her a "presence", for lack of a better term.

This "presence" thing is elusive--- it took me awhile to figure out what it is. I was thinking at first that it was some kind of personality trait--- but that's not it. Although Alizee's personality is delightful and very feminine, it is her motor reflexes-- rather than her personality-- which give Alizee her "presence". Once again, a good example of "presence" is the way she walks across the stage at the end of Ella Ella L'a--- what we are seeing is motor reflexes, not personality.

(Well, that's the "theory". Let me know what you think.)
