Well we are getting completely off topic of the book but o well haha....Any ways I remember that when Oprah went to Celine's house in Vegas for the Oprah show that Celine asked Oprah something about hot tea vs. iced tea or something....I don't quite remember the exact convo, but i know tea was part of it! haha  

I remember that. Celine asked Oprah if she'd like a drink Oprah said tea, and Celine asked her if she wanted hot or cold. They both had an iced tea.

That's right! I've never heard her talking about tea, but a lot about coffee, even though she's not allowing herself to drink it when she has to sing, cause it changes her tremolo   Altough she always gets confused.... She always says "black coffee, two sugar"... Celine dear, black coffee means no sugar no nothing, just the coffee . Anyway, we know how she likes her coffee, if we're ever in a position to give her some :praying:

Maybe where you come from.    Where I come from, black coffee just means no milk. So the four answers we do know, are the answers to the easy questions.   I would still love to hear her answers to the other questios I've posted. And I bet beteen all the members on this forum we could come up with some fun and interesting questions we could ask her if we ever get the chance to... Anyway, we are way off topic. My mistake, sorry!

Why do interviewers always ask her the same boring questions? There are so many questions she's never been asked before. Questions about the little things in her live... I'm so sick of people always asking about RC' s long hair and if she wants another baby or not. I can think of many questios they can ask her, for example:

1. What's your favourite board game (has someone ask her this before?)
2. What do you like to eat for breakfast?
3. Coffee/Tee
4. Do you prefer showering or taking a bath?
5. If you are sick and you have to stay in bed do you watch movies or do you prefer to sleep?
6. What's your favourite book?
7. Do you have any weird phobias?
8 What is your favourite holiday?
9. Are you ticklish?
10. What is your favourite animal and why?

I can think of many more questios. I don't know, maybe she has been ask some of these before. But I think sometimes people are much more interested in the little things rather than the same boring stuff interviewers always ask her. I don't think these things are even mentioned in her books.

Some of the answers we know. 8 - Christmas. 6. She said something about a book by Marc Levy.

The book by Marc Levy is called "If Only It Were True" but she read it in French of course.  It was what the movie Just Like Heaven was based on.

so any word on if this book will be released in english and if so any word on when? Because I want this book sooo badly to be translated into english, I will buy it the day it comes out. I don't care if I have to miss class I WILL go get it. I want to read it. and I'll throw my two cents in on the coffee thing, anytime anyone I know orders black coffee they just want no milk in it but most of them do put sugar. I've always been told just black coffee means no milk not no milk or sugar. My brother takes his black with sugar but no milk.

so Celine likes to eat her toast with butter and peanut butter on it? Hmm I usually eat jelly with my butter or peanut butter and jelly but never butter and peanut butter....I'll have to try that in the morning when I get up.

OK, my bad, it must be a cultural thing.... Where I am, black coffee means no milk, no sugar, no nothing, just the coffee. Either way, I like mine with everything in, including some chocolate for good measure  

[FanDion]

Black coffee- coffee with sugar if you want,but no milk As we translate it into Ukrainian

That is a good question. But I think it got easier for her as the tour went on. I mean compare the videos of the European leg with the American leg.  In London, for instance, she could barely introduce the song without getting emotional, and tears were running down her cheeks before she even finished the a capella. In the US she didn't cry that much.

Maybe she sung it so many times that she lost the emotional feel for it....

Nah, I just think it was easier for her. It also maybe dependeded on how she felt that day. After months of  singing it, she still cried on Oprah...

[SensationalCeline]

I was about to say that.  They showed the re-run of her singing that and I immeidately thought of this topic.  I was like, awww, she still cried..........

[Thomas]

I think that was due to the things she had seen on the Oprah show that day though, who wouldn't have cried listening to the stories of those kids? She did't get emotional at Leno but Oprah was a very upsetting show.

Would anyone happen to have a video of that? her getting really emotiona during ML on the TC tour? I've never saw any so I just wondered, but I've only watched a couple of the TC ML video's anyway.....

Thomas, I bawled like a baby and I've saw the episode several times so I knew what was coming and I still lost it.

Plus she was sick, so she probably was also not feeling well. I think everything was just a bit much for her...

Thanks for the link.

[Lou555]

For those of you guys on this Section who are interested and understand french, I've posted two new links where you can listen to videos of excellent interviews Denise Bombardier did on Québec TV to promote her book about Céline "L'énigmatique Céline Dion".  Those are from LCN "Denis Lévesque"(rerun of July 15th) and yesterday's new interview at SRC's "Bons baisers de France" with France Beaudoin.

You can find those links here on page 8 of the french section of this forum :

I wish I knew who could tell us that too.   I know many fans would be happy to read this book in english and I don't know if that's going to happen sometime soon.  Maybe the "XO editions" or "Albin Michel" know.   
I think others here have better connections then I to find that out.    I wouldn't know who to ask unfortunately but if I hear anything, of course I can assure you it will be my pleasure to post the info here.

[nuts2you]

Thank you, your the Greatess. Will keep trying.Someone will know.

[nuts2you]

Does anyone know when this book will be released here in the states? or could someone find out for us.?

[SensationalCeline]

I can't believe that they still haven't released it yet.  Maybe they will around Christmas to get more money??? so people will buy it as a gift?

[nuts2you]

Ok, How do we found out when they are going to release this,Could someone write to the writer/author and find out for us.

[nuts2you]

Can anyone find out about this I 'm getting bored now that she is on break , I need some thing to read now.

[Alex_Incognito]

Nothing yet.

Don't hold your breath.

[nuts2you]

I have and update to everyones question about this book.
Dear Madam, dear Sir,

I know many people would like to read this book in English. We are still searching for a good publisher in the US and UK to translate it.
Do not hesitate to ask me again, and to check on our website www.xoeditions.com where you can read the "foreign rights" status of the book. The Enslih language publisher will be written there,

All best,

Florence Pariente
Foreign rights

[SensationalCeline]

Yay!!!! So eventually it will be out in English...they are just looking for the right person to translate it the best correct?
