2000 Alizée auditions for “Graines de star”. First in Corsica (in the césar palace) and then in Paris interpreting the song “waiting for tonight”. Although for several reasons the precise date of this is not clear for example it appears in some videos that it is actually 19th December 1999. Whilst when Graines de Star was broadcasted, a fragment of the video appears with the label: Audition January 2000. 25th February 2000 Alizée on “Graines de Star” performs “Ma Priere” which was originally sung by Axelle Red. In which Alizée comes first (source Nidalizée) However another source states it is the 26th of January (gourmand'alizée). Spring 2000 L. Boutonnant and P.

Claire won, whilst Alizée 15 at the time came second. (source Nidalizée). Claimed on another site it was 27th of February (gourmand'alizée). There is some doubt about the exact dates of “Graines De Star” performances by Alizée due to schedule changes on the show. Some videos show Alizée performances as dated in 1999, however Homer feels the above dates are correct. 21st May 2000 Moi… Lolita begins to be aired on the radio 4th July 2000 Moi… Lolita single is released (source Nidalizée) 26th July 2000 The video of the song Moi…Lolita was released for the first time exclusively on the M6 network (source actualizée not to be confused with the magazine of the same name) (Some websites claim that the actual date is the 28th July 2000) 6th September 2000 Recorded appearance on Hit Machine that will be shown on the 16th. 8th September 2000 A news article and interview with Alizée in Ajaccio is broadcasted on the program “Le Grand Soir” with Jean-Pierre Foucault. Alizée’s conduct throughout is mysterious, a trait that has continued until the present. She also performs Moi…Lolita and this is the first time since “Graines De Star” that she has appeared on TV. (Sources un brin d'Alizée , Nidalizée& tinkalizée) 16th September 2000 She appeared on “Hit Machine” on channel M6. On this occasion she appears dressed much more simplistic than she did in “Le Grand Soir.” (Source Nidalizée & tinkalizée) She demonstrates the great fluent dancer that she is. In the evening of the same day at 18:15 hours she appears on studio 22 on RTL channel. In the interview Alizée gave, she stated that she is the one who chooses the subjects of her songs, and that the songs are about her life experiences. It is then Mylene Farmer who interprets these experiences and turns them into songs. It is for this reason that “Goumandises” is an autobiographical album. There is no video of this interview, nor is there much information about the interview, but it is commentated on Alizée Web in the news section and the section regarding television appearances. In addition there are photos of it and an audio recording. 23rd September 2000 Appeared on “Fan De” on channel M6 at 12:05 hours. (Source tinkalizée) This is the famous interview with Alizée on the boat. There is some confusion over the date of this video because there are several dates. There is the 23rd of September and there is February 2001 (or June of the same year but these are no more then repetitions (Source tinkalizée)). However there are several reasons why the correct date must be September 2000. Firstly her hairstyle is short in the video and matches the style she had in September. Secondly the logos of the programs are different. In the September transmission, the logo is an orange star in the bottom left of the screen with “Fan de” on it. In the 2001 version underneath “fan de”, the words “best of” appears and this is a definite sign that it is just a repeat of the original interview. 29th September 2000 Appeared on “Graines De Stars” on channel M6 at 20:50 hours (Source nidalizée & tinkalizée) 30th September 2000 Appeared on “Dansez Maintenent” on France 2 (source nidalizée & tinkalizée).
