...and I did my best to dissect the information provided if you're interested in hearing it:

There are 3 things the article uses as evidence of this rumour; The Vinyl releases announced a few days ago, Alizee's performance of Moi Lolita and other songs on Jaka to Melodia, and her involvement with the Julia project.
Starting with the Julia project, as far as I know the only involvement Alizee had was helping out Julia with her choreography. Perhaps there was some more stuff going on behind the scenes, maybe Alizee gave some input on how the project should be marketed or how Julia should present herself based on Alizee's experience in a very similar situation, but any involvement of such would've been minimal I imagine.
I don't think Mylene asking Alizee to help out a bit for Julia's sake was too big of an ask or a hint of something more to come between Alizee and Mylene. I'm sure Alizee was simply happy to help out and that's as far as it went, though that's just what I'd interpret.
Then there's the performance of Moi Lolita on Jaka to Melodia. The article says she had announced a withdrawal from performing the song live some time ago, I don't know when that was but she also performed the song during the Warsaw 2018 concert. Did the announced withdrawal come some time after 2018? Because 1 and a half years is not very long of a break when she isn't doing many gigs anyway.
So perhaps there is something to this observation, though honestly I think it's more likely that Alizee backed down from what she'd said because gigs such as Jaka to Melodia would understandably want her to sing her most well-known song. If the singing of Moi Lolita at Jaka to Melodia and possibly also Warsaw is all part of some long-term scheme to drop hints at a new album that would be an incredible feat of planning that seems highly unlikely anyone would actually go through with.
And of course there's the announcement of the Vinyl Releases. Yes, it's being done under Sony and Requiem with Mylene seemingly part of the promotional material, but I'm not sure their involvement suggests anything new to come otherwise.
If anything, the two previous 'hints' at a new album may be true, but only to tease the release of the Vinyls rather than new music. All these examples are either partly of fully related to the MF & LB days with Alizee's first 2 albums. Of course it's possible that if there were to be a new album one day it could be in collaboration with MF and LB, but it would still need to be its own new thing.
So to sum up; the hints provided in the article don't substantiate too much if you look at the context behind them, and if they are intended to tease something new it may have just been for the Vinyl releases at the end of the year.
If this is all part of a long-term plan to drop hints at something bigger then well played. But that just seems too outlandish, especially considering how things like the birth of Maggy and Covid-19 can and have happened that have a major affect on Alizee's personal life. I think the article may be onto something, but that 'something' is more likely the Vinyl releases, perhaps some other promotional stuff but likely nothing more, but of course we'll just have to wait and see.

The release of unseen media may be another hint, but it doesn't seem to be coming from an official account. It's hard to know who's releasing these clips and what their intention is. Though that mystery does hint at a lot of possibilities.
More than anything I'm just happy to be getting new footage of her, if it leads to something bigger then that would be great but I'm unsure how likely it is.
