I don't like the final cover much :thumbdown: They should've used a new photo instead.

they suck, there are so many other better pics of her. Like the ones from the belong shoot, those are the greatest, why don't they use those?

Can't complain though, at least they didn't use a blonde pic, or the one from the parfume commercial. At least look at the bright side!

Most people are extremely disappointed with the cover,but I kinda like the picture.
Céline looks young and  pensive.

Using the same photo for "On ne change pas" which is also a huge disappointment for most people. I am surprised a different photo hasn't been used. THere are  some simple, yet playful photos of Céline which capture her true essenses. What a shame,  Sony could have simply used a photo of her short, bleached blonde hair instead  :wacko:  :shocking:

Just saw someone post a similar comment about the blonde hair :laughing:

Does anyone know if Celine will be doing any book signings? I know someone on another topic mentioned that  they had stood in line for five hours a few years back when she was doing a signing for her earlier biography. My guess is that she would maybe do it in the Las Vegas area and maybe Montreal. I'd wait in line for hours if it ever happens.

:D

I like the "Pour Toujours" cover, I think it's a good picture for the BOOK not the CD. You know? :D

But it's what is inside that matters! :clap: :jump:

I really don't like the covers either!! On the On Ne Change Pas cover, Céline looks like a poor and abused little girl... Too bad they don't use a smiling Céline. After all, On Ne Change Pas means We don't change, so Céline shouldn't look like a non smiling stranger because it's NOT who she is... Hope René or someone is Céline's team read the fans' comments. Or maybe Jenna can mention the fan comments to René?   :ermm:  :confused1:  :cry:  :evil:  :lmao:

Bye Bye,

Thanks for the info on the book signings. With regards to the covers, I think that it's probably always going to difficult to get a consensus on what the perfect cover photo would be. I'm really looking forward to reading your book soon!

I'm sure Clarissa could come up with a great cover.  She always has the best Celine avatars, sigs, and wallpapers.  Like the one on her avatar now.

Jenna, thanks for bringing us such a great book about our favorite singer. We all very much appreciate it, and look forward to it.

With regard to the cover, is there anything you can do, like suggest to the publisher that a different pic be used, that the fans really don't like the one that's being used? I hope it isn't too late. The belong pics look really great. How do you feel about the cover pic? Who came up with the idea to use the one that they did?

Again thanks for your hard work, and for willing to talk with us on this site!
Shaun

I'm almost sure they are. the publicist send these covers to us for the autographed promotional give away. and they're also confirmed by Jenna earlier.

Where did the english pic come from and when was it shot? I don't think it was shot specifically for this book, which is ridiculous, a new book, a new photoshoot, don't you think so?

So suddenly, it's clear to me
Things change
Our future lies in here and now
We live it through somehow

Now the greatest reward
Is the love that I can give
I'm here for you now
For as long as I live
You made me who I am
