When reading the biography of the popular French singer Alize, many will be surprised at how easily she managed to achieve her own goals.
Any chance that fate provided the girl, she was never afraid to use. Her creative career has had both ups and downs.
However, the girl never disappointed her true fans. Let's study the biography of this popular French singer and try to figure out what are the reasons for her success.
Childhood of Alize Jacote
Alize Jakote was born on August 21, 1984. Her father worked as a computer specialist, and her mother was engaged in entrepreneurial activities.
The birthplace of the future French pop star was the largest city of the island of Corsica - Ajaccio.
Apparently, native places where the sun shone all year round, beautiful nature influenced the ease with which Alize achieved success.
Since childhood, the girl was fond of dancing and singing. At the age of 4, her parents sent her to a dance school. At this time, another baby was born in the family, who was named Johan.
The teachers of the dance school immediately saw Alize's talent and eventually began to trust her with solo roles at the final concerts. The girl was fond of drawing.
So, for example, at the age of 11 she created a logo for a French airline. For winning the competition, the girl and her family were awarded a week-long tour to the Maldives.
After transferring the logo to one of the airline's airliners, it is called Alizee. Thanks to her passion for dancing, at the age of 15, Alize became a member of the Young Stars musical show, organized by the French television channel M6.
Initially, a solo performance was planned in the plans of the young girl, but her dance was not allowed to participate in the competition program. The fact is that only groups participated in it.
Alize was not taken aback and decided to go on stage with a song in English. True, she never reached the next stage. However, a month later, the girl again tried her hand at the competition and won her debut music award.
The beginning of the creative path of Alize
It was after winning the musical TV show "Young Stars" that the famous singer Mylene Farmer and her producer Laurent Butonnat noticed the girl.
In 2000, Alize Jakote received a lucrative offer of cooperation, which it was very stupid to refuse. In the same year, one of the most famous singles of the singer Moi ... Lolita was released.
The author of the composition was Mylene. After that, a video clip for the song appeared on television. For six months, she did not leave the top five compositions in the French and world charts.
Alize's first disc called Gourmandises was released on November 28, 2000. It was produced by Laurent Boutonnat. The album went platinum within three months.
The singer enjoyed great popularity not only in her native France, but also abroad.
The television channel "M6" recognized the young talent as the "Discovery of the Year". The performer of popular songs was invited to Russia to participate in the musical ceremony "Stop hit".
The peak of the singer's popularity
In the spring of 2002, Alize won the World Music Award. After that, the singer decided to take a break from musical activities.
However, already in 2003 she resumed her career. A video clip of J'en Ai Marre! appeared on TV channels. After some time, a single of the same name was released, which took a leading position in the charts, but did not hold them for long.
It was in this year that the second disc of the singer Mes Courants Electriques was released, in the creation of which, as usual, Milen and Laurent helped her.
In 2003, Alize met her future husband Jeremy Chatelain in Cannes. The girl could not resist the charm of a young man, and six months after the first meeting in Las Vegas, the couple officially became husband and wife.
At the same time, fans learned about this event much later (many of them were shocked) than it happened.
In the same year, the live album Alizee En Concert was released on the music market. In 2004, the singer's grandiose concert took place, but after that she decided to take a sabbatical.
True, it continued until 2007. Since then, the French singer has released four full length albums.
Alize's personal life
During a sabbatical, Alize gave birth to a daughter, whom her parents named Annie-Lee. The couple bought a house in Paris. True, a happy marriage lasted only 9 years. Her husband initiated the divorce.
In many interviews given by the singer, she said that she was in a lot of pain for a long time after the breakup.
It is the date of the divorce from Jeremy that she herself considers the moment of the "death" of the performer Alize. Of course, many fans, to put it mildly, were not happy about this news.
Later, the singer participated in the reality show "Dancing with the Stars", where she met her future husband Gregoire Lyonne. They signed in 2016.
