Zazie, Ze Web ?

French-speakers and Zazie fans will love this.

I was browsing Zazie's current official site when they actually have another - compiling all of Zazie's previous albums and achievements (i.e. the link above) - called Zazie, Ze Web. The structure of the site is such : it's this virtual, pixelated world, where you control Zazie with your mouse, and you can click onto various items to experiment with them. A mini-role playing game, perhaps, with Zazie as the main character. And whenever you approach someone..... he/she goes *SCREAM !* It's Zazie !

I had a really good laugh when I explored the site.
Here're some pictures I took while exploring Ze Web (and sorry, folks, not all of them are clear) :



Alright, the text came out very blur on this one but it says 1976 : Rêve de son premier scooter (translation – 1976 : Dream of her first scooter). She apparently got her first scooter, which she nicknamed "Jolly Jumper" in 1990.


From where I pointed, you can imagine what happened to the "Jolly Jumper." Translation - 1998 : Burning of "Jolly Jumper" (it actually got burnt in an accident, poor Zazie !) and adoption of "Jasper" [apparently her second scooter (Zazie : hope they don't steal it away from me)], but "Jasper" was said to have been stolen from her two months later.


This is another one which made me laugh. Translation - 9th March 2002 : Musical victories : Best Female Artiste of the Year. Nominated in the categories Variety Albums/Pop for "La Zizanie" (released 2001) and Best Song for "À Ma Place" (which she did with Axel Bauer). Take a good look at her legs. What, can't see ?

Okay, this one's kinda blur but I guess it's a much better close-up. Her legs are skyhigh above the podium !

(unlike the thumbnails of her first two victories, which featured her on the ground instead of in the sky)


Translation - 2023 - Automatic car licence. Aiyoooooo, Zazie, you didn't get your driving licence meh ? At the rate you're going Universal Studios might think you'd get your driving licence at... I don't know, 59 ?



(oh, and FYI, Zazie was born in 1964)

This is another part of Ze Web which made me roll on the floor laughing. A scooter game ! I guess Zazie has a penchant for scooters. For starters, it's very simple - you have the arrow keys, just control the darn scooter until all the eleven points are reached, in order. I was practically laughing my head off while doing this. I was so careless, I made her crash/fall into the water several times. Vraiment désolée, Zazie !


It's another one of those minigames where this time, Zazie's up in the air..... wait, what the hell is she dropping from her plane ? A monkey ??

And hey, look : they actually showed a quick Flash clip of Zazie swimming.

*still laughing*


Man, it's no wonder why Ze Web was the Best Web Site of the year 2003.


I dream of getting Square Enix to create an interactive web site like this for me. And I'd like it to be rendered as well as Kingdom Hearts II. :D
