Alizee is Really a Great Actress !

[Marshal Davout]

You see I kinda fell in Love with Alizee from her early videos !
I am not one to fall in love a lot; as I was "in computers and websites" for many years; so I am somewhat of a "steady" individual for lack of better word ! But when I saw Alizee I fell "Head over Heels" as they say in Love with her ! So I resolved to fly to Paris and Propose Marriage to her ( not knowing hardly any French language ! ) I would have been the "Tom Hanks" in the movie and Alizee would have been the "Meg Ryan" Although Alizee is more Cute and Beautiful than Ryan and I must say I am more handsome than Hanks, as I was then being somewhat of a Robert Redford/Paul Newman type ! And so; I had an interpreter write me a letter of introduction and marriage proposal and having followed her from the Olympia Theatre; I had her hotel and then I Bribed a hotel employee for her room number 100 Francs ! Then I got all my gifts together ( two Hermes Scarfs, a gallon of the Perfume "Miss Dior" ( And You ! What would You do For Love - promoted by Natalie Portman ), A bottle of Champagne, 2 Glasses, An Emerald Bracelot and Necklace ( I like Green ), two boxes of Swiss Chocalate ( I heard they were the Best ! ) and of course a Ring. and so I knocked on her door ! She answered Wei ? So I got down on my knee and gave her my letter and said Marriage, Alizee ? I love you ! She let me in, reading my Proposal and I set up all my gifts on her kitchenette counter, got down on my knee and held out my ring to her ! But she said she was not ready for marriage just yet and she would not live in America, but only France or Corsica ! I told her I'll live anywhere you want ! But still she demurred !
And so finally she put me out the door, crying a little bit ( I did not expect that ! ) and so my Proposal was rejected and I was disconsolate !

I bet those hotel employees could make quite a bit of money giving out her room #.

Yes ! Scruffy ! I stayed at Alizee's door a little bit, still proposing through the door; but still she cried a little bit, saying No ! An old Maquis lady, down the corridor opened her door and said; Get away from that girl ! She is a Nice Girl ! I told her I was Proposing, but the old lady said; we'll it seems she has rejected you, so get away from there or I will call Le Gendarmes ! Finally I left and told Alizee I would send her another letter of Proposal. As I was exiting the Hotel Lobby; Inspector Rosseau of the Sirte pulled up with 3 gendarmes. Are you an American, he said ? I tried to say "NO" in my best French Accent; but Rosseau said; That's him, Get Him ! And so Rosseau and the Gendarmes started chasing me down the street, as I ran !
Alizee heard the commotion and went out on her balcony and watched Rosseau and the Gendarmes chasing me down the street ! This amused her, so she kinda gigled and laughed ! She took the old Maquis lady down the corridor one of the boxes of Chocolates I had left as a reward. The old lady told her; You are on the stage; so I better eat all of these for you ! Yes, keep the box, Alizee told her !
At the corner I ran into a bunch of Nuns escorted by a mother superior and burst through them ! Rosseau and the Gendarmes got delayed, though. What are you doing you idiot, said the mother superior to Rosseau ? we're chasing a Suspect, said Rosseau ! we'll chase them someplace else !
Ahead on the next corner I spy a subway entrance ,so I pile down it, hoping to find a Train. There is one there ! With the doors open, so I race onboard, reversing my jacket to a different color and find a hat on a seat, so I pull it down around my face. Finally the doors close and we take off. Rosseau and the gendarmes race down into the subway, but they are too late as the train is pulling out !
I got off at the next stop and immediately go to my hotel to check out as I am sure Rosseau will be checking all the hotels, for the american ! I check out ! I thought you were staying two weeks, the clerk said ? Some business came up in Marseille, I tell him so I have to go there ! Then I scout around for someplace unobvious to stay. I luckily find an old lady with a room to let, so I get that and stay there !

Eventually; after Alizee told me No again; I went back to the States !
But I still Love Alizee and would do anything for her that I could and she wanted me too !
However I am not a crazy Fan ; and I would not seek to bother her, as I know she is happily married now.
The most I would do; if I ever ran into her again, is ask for her autograph on something with a Silly Smile on my face !
And I am sure that she is used to guys asking for her autograph with a silly smile on their faces !

However; If I hit the Lottery, I might Fly to France again and see if I can find another "Alizee" in France or Corsica ! Surely, there must be another one ?

[Marshal Davout]

I wax Poetic about Alizee and perhaps you will forgive me ? Monday May 27th is our Veterans day; and being somewhat of a veteran; I am still "kicking" as they say. And so I relate a story about Alizee I heard in Corsica. I was there as an amateur Writer and Historian researching Napoleon; where he was born and the Bonapartes house there is a museum. An old man approached me at my table in the restaurant and asked if I would like to hear the story of Alizee ? I told him I do not know who that is ? You wouldn't he said as america does not play singers who do not sing in english and Alizee only sang in French when she started out ! I see, I said ! You must suspend some disbelief he said. I guess I can do that !
You see in France there is a Fairy Queen of the Fairies of the Field and one of her Fairies was gathering Berries for her to eat in the south of France ! ( At this point of course, I began to doubt my old man ! ) But a fierce storm came up and blew the Fairy out to sea; and try as she might, she could not fly back ! And so the Fairy got blown clear to the Island of Corsica ! And she finally lighted in a Tree where she had to rest !
Now at the same time; there was a young girl in Corsica who had a bad stepmother who used to beat her. And a guy invited her to go by bus to the Disco in town where there was a new band and they would dance ! And so he gave her money for the bus ! So the girl stole away to the disco to dance ! She took her younger sister as a chaperone ! A friend of the stepmother saw her and told the stepmother; so the next day she told Alizee, I am going to beat you, because you went to the Disco ! But Alizee didn't want to be beat; so she ran out of the house and into the Forest !
At the same time; the Fairy slipped on the morning dew on the branch and fell before she could fly into some brambles and weeds and there she got perfectly caught with her Wings, and her Bow and Quiver and Arrows and her Sword all entangled up and she couldn't get out ! But that wasn't the worse; as two cats started to hunt her; as they thought she was a Bird ! And the Fairy thought she was a goner as the cats came for her; and so she could do nothing except Yell; "Help Me !, Help Me! for the Cats hunt me !
And Alizee heard her cries and came to help and shooed the Cats away, as she likes cats, and Freed the Fairy from the Weeds and Brambles ! The Fairy flew up into the Tree !
Now the Fairy told her; It is your Lucky Day, Alizee, as you have saved the life of a Fairy; and I must grant you 3 Wishes ! What do you wish for ? Alizee told her ; " I want to be a Famous Dancer and Singer, so I can make Francs and escape my cruel stepmother ! This is a hard wish to do; Can you Dance and Sing at all ? Alizee told her I have been taking Dancing lessons since I was four and I can sing a little bit ! well said the Fairy; and after a ceremony to be related later ; she granted Alizee's wish ! But when will I be Famous asked the girl ? You must enter all of the Dancing and Singing contests you can and you will win some and you will be noticed and you will have the Luck of the Fairies with You !
Soon you will become famous and no longer will you be the French country girl Alizee Jacotey; you will become Alizee !
And so the rest is History, as they say !
And if you don't believe my story; you should realize that the woman Alizee has a Tattoo upon her back, and the Tattoo is of a Fairy, and the Fairy Tinker Bell !

Alizee's song is a hit with the Spanish, Mexicans, South America i think; because it has 166 Million Plays !
My friend tells people somewhere "She can Dance your Head Off, because she won the French "Dancing With the Stars !"
