We consider optimal shapes of the functional Eλ(Ω)=J(Ω)+P(Ω)+λΩm\mathcal{E}_\lambda(\Omega) = J(\Omega) + P(\Omega) + \lambda ||\Omega| - m| among all the measurable subsets Ω\Omega of a given open bounded domain DRdD \subset \mathbf{R}^d where J(Ω)J(\Omega) is some Dirichlet energy associated with Ω\Omega, P(Ω)P(\Omega) and Ω|\Omega| being respectively the perimeter and the Lebesgue measure of Ω\Omega. We prove here that for some optimal shape, the state function associated with the Dirichlet energy is Lipschitz-continuous. Then we deduce the same regularity properties for the boundary of the optimal shape as in the pure isoperimetric problem (case J0J \equiv 0). We also consider the minimization of E0\mathcal{E}_0 with Lebesgue measure constraint Ω=0|\Omega| = 0
