Adored by millions, Celine is not a name that will soon be forgotten. After many years in the business, she continues to produce albums that sell by the millions. She is one of few artists who sings, and produces, both French and English albums - and has received many achievements for doing so.
While headlining in Las Vegas, nearly every performance was sold out. Her talent, and magical vocals, has captured the hearts of many adoring fans. She puts on a show that not only speaks to your soul, but also entertains your visual senses. The costumes are phenomenal and choreography is unspeakably impressive. The combination of her moving vocals and the performance that she so passionately displays, continually captures the attention of new and existing fans.
Celine Dion was born in Charlemagne, Quebec, Canada, and was one of 14 children. Celine started singing at the age of 12. Her first song was written by her, and recorded by her mother, at home. Celine's brother, sneakily, mailed the recording for Rene Angelil. After not hearing anything, for a while, her brother even took the step to call Angelil and insist on him listening to the recording of his sister.
Angelil was so impressed with the phone call, from Celine's brother, and the recording, that he requested her presence. She performed, live, for Angelil, who was emotionally touched by the performance. He was so touched - in fact - that he vowed to help her start her career. (Not knowing, of course, how accomplished of a performer she would truly become.) Within 3 years Celine had produced two French albums; one of these songs actually made it on the local charts. Celine was the first Canadian to be presented with the French Gold record.
In order for Celine to move forward, with her career, she needed to undergo a makeover. During this time she attended school to learn English, in order to enter into the American Market. In 1988 Celine was on tour in Europe. During this time, her and Angelil fell in love, but feared the consequences of a relationship. Surprisingly, Celine's fans supported her and nothing but joy came from her relationship with Angelil.
At the age of 23 Celine was approached, by Disney, to perform the theme song for "Beauty and the Beast". The following year Celine was awarded with a Grammy and an Oscar for this performance. During this time, her second English album was also released.
In 1997, she had another opportunity of a lifetime, to perform the song "My Heart Will Go On" for the soundtrack to the movie "Titanic". With Celine's range of octaves, that she so eloquently hits, this was another opportunity for her to share her magical vocal talent with the world.
In 2001, Celine and Angelil became the proud parents of a little boy. Passionate and dedicated, to both her family and her career, Celine continues to produce both French and English albums.
She is currently on tour, which will be ending at some point this year. This tour, known as "Taking Chances", has already hit the charts for one of the top grossing tours of 2008.
