Kathleen Turner in Full-On Operatic Mode For Early Portrait

An older photo of a glamorous Kathleen Turner. She almost looks like an opera singer in this portrait. Seems like she would be a mezzo-soprano singing French repertoire. Which of these selections do you think she would most likely be singing?
"O ma lyre immortelle"from Sapho (Gounod)
"Mort de Didon" from Les Troyens (Berlioz)
"Printemps qui commence" from Samson et Dalila (Saint-Saëns)
"D'amour l'ardente flamme" from La damnation de Faust (Berlioz)
"Asie" from Shéhérazade (Ravel)
