Salut 2001 (A)
Alizée: "I'd love to have Patrick Bruel as a best friend!"
We know it, she doesn't hide it, Alizée doesn't like interviews. Talking to journalists is always an ordeal for her, except... when it's Salut, who always makes up funny questionnaires for her. This time, we asked her to go wild, and she didn't hold back!
What if...you were able to borrow from others what you don't like in your physique, what would it be? And from whom?
A: I'd steal the beautiful turquoise eyes of Leonardo DiCaprio. And then, since I'm so little, I'd take Adriana Karembeu's height... Hey! no, she is really very tall. Let's say rather Karen Mulder, that's not as bad. When I participated in the Enfoirés concert, she was there, and I had to look up in the air to see her face. Concerning my hair, no need to copy anyone, I've already had highlights in raven black, deep purple, golden, and red, and short, curly, and wavy haircuts.
What if...you confessed to us the last stupid thing you did?
A: It's not really something stupid, but still... Three weeks ago, I bought for myself a canopy bed with nice curtains. Then yesterday I slipped and caught myself as best I could, and... I tore everything! (smiles).
What if...you were stricken with a sharp food craving, what would you devour?
A: Sweets, without hesitation. Candy and more candy. The most sugary there are, because I looooove them! That's actually what I do sometimes. I stuff myself until I'm disgusted. Then, for three weeks, I won't touch them. Then my weakness takes over, and... I begin again. It's not for nothing that my album is called "Gourmandises". I'm truly like that!
What if...you were given a dream day? What would you do? And with whom?
A: I'd go directly out into the sun, to the beach. I'd like to be all alone, or with my friends, but not too many: five or six at the most. We wouldn't do anything extraordinary: tan ourselves, eat, swim with dolphins, and do this until sunset.
What if...you found your best friend's diary, would you read it?
A: I'm so curious that, I admit, I wouldn't be able to resist! (smiles). What's more, when I go to one of my friends' houses, I warn her: "Watch out, don't leave anything out, otherwise I'll look at it!" In this particular case, I know I wouldn't be able to prevent myself from being indiscreet. Then I'd think about it to figure out whether or not I tell her. Not sure!
What if...your career crashed hard, what would you do?
A: I'd leave! Far away! In a city where no one knows me. So not in France. I'd invite some friends, we'd have a party, we'd dance all night long. We'd buy lots of things and go crazy. That's one of my dreams. It's true that when I'm tired and far from my dear Corsica, sometimes I stay stop, I'm fed up! But in general that doesn't last long, because I realize that I really am lucky to live all this.
What if...you said no, what would it be about?
A: No to an interview that lasts ten hours (she laughs), and no to coming to live in Paris!
What if...you were to imagine your life ten years from now...
A: I never do it, because I'm superstitious, but OK, just this once... I'd like to have as much luck professionally that I do now. To be married, living in Ajaccio, of course, with a child. Girl or boy, it doesn't matter. But I already have an idea for the names: Carla for a girl and Mathias for a boy.
What if...your house was burning up and you could only save three things...
A: When I'm in my room, I think about it a lot. First, I'd take my pink bear that I sleep with, that my boyfriend gave me. Then my bag, because there's a ton of things in it. Last, my first disque d'or.
What if...you were invisible for an entire day, what would you do?
A: When I was little, I imagined being a fly and I dreamed of going to see what was happening at school when I wasn't there. Now, I take classes by correspondence, and I miss the high school atmosphere. I'd go back and check it out. But when I say that to my friends, they think I'm crazy! (Smiles).
What if...you slipped into the skin of someone else, who would it be?
A: Madonna, my idol. Preferably when she was giving a concert, to see what it is to sing in front of thousands of frenetic fans.
What if...you were the heroine of a cartoon, who would you be?
A: Tinkerbell! She's little, she flies, she has a magic want, and also, in movies, she was voiced by Julia Roberts, whom I adore, so...
What if...you could relive an awesome moment, what would it be?
A: It's when I went away for ten days to the Maldives, thanks to the contest that I won, with my parents and my brother, five years ago.
What if...you were able to have any artist as a best friend, who would you choose?
A: Patrick Bruel! He is simple and level-headed. He has experience and seems to understand people. He's always very kind to me. During the Restos du coeur tour, he took me under his wing and gave me advice... He's neither a friend nor a confidant, but I would like it if he became one.
What if...someone gave to the chance to take a trip an hour from now, where would you go?
A: I don't know why, but, for several years, Australia has attracted me. That's surely where I would go. But, please, give me time to pack my suitcase, otherwise I'm going to forget half my things!
What if...you learned that your best friend had betrayed you, what would be your reaction?
A: I wouldn't talk to her anymore and... I'd look for a way to get revenge. An eye for an eye...
[Mini infos]: Alizée's new single, Parler tout bas, is the third single from her album. And like usual, it has Mylène Farmer's and Laurent Boutonnat's signature.
This song talks specifically of this pink bear that serves as her confidant. The lucky devil! The video was shot in Senlis, just like "Moi... Lolita".
As for her studies, despite a busy schedule, she always maintains her average. Oof!
