René Angélil et trois autres personnalités sont honorés par McGill

MONTREAL — Plus habitué aux coulisses, le gérant et conjoint de Céline Dion, René Angélil s'est retrouvé à l'avant-scène, vendredi, recevant un prix de l'Université McGill soulignant ses talents d'entrepreneur.

La gérance de la carrière de sa conjointe Céline Dion, la gestion de son entreprise Les Productions Feeling ainsi que son attitude philanthropique envers différentes causes telles que le cancer du sein et la Fondation de l'Hôpital Sainte-Justine pour les enfants malades ont motivé le choix de l'université montréalaise de lui remettre l'un des prix annuels de la Faculté de gestion Desautels.

"C'est un grand honneur, mais je n'aurais jamais réussi ce que j'ai fait sans l'aide de Céline", a déclaré M. Angélil.

M. Angélil a également profité de l'événement pour indiquer qu'il travaillait très fort actuellement à titre de directeur de Star Académie et qu'il prendra très bientôt une année sabbatique afin de se consacrer davantage à sa famille.

"J'ai plein d'idées, mais je vais prendre une année de repos complète pour penser et, le plus important, d'essayer d'avoir un deuxième enfant", a confié M. Angélil.

L'époux et gérant de Céline Dion figurait parmi les quatre personnalités québécoises qui ont été honorées par l'Université McGill pour leurs réalisations et leurs contributions à la société.

Outre M. Angélil, le président et chef de la direction des Alouettes de Montréal, Larry Smith; la présidente et chef de la direction du Mouvement Desjardins, Monique Leroux; et le président et directeur général de la Bourse de Montréal et du Groupe TSX, Luc Bertrand, ont reçu des honneurs semblables.

M. Smith, un ancien étudiant de l'Université McGill, a rappelé aux jeunes entrepreneurs présents dans la salle durant son discours d'acceptation l'importance d'être bilingue à Montréal et d'avoir des idées originales et agressives. Il a également souligné sa fierté d'être parmi un groupe comprenant M. Angélil et Mme Leroux, notamment.

Pour sa part, Mme Leroux a brièvement abordé le thème de la crise économique mondiale durant son discours en citant le philosophe Horace: "Qui a confiance en soi, conduit les autres".

Les prix de gestion de l'Université McGill sont remis chaque année aux personnalités qui ont illustré des valeurs essentielles telles que le leadership, l'esprit d'entreprise, le sens de l'éthique et de la responsabilité sociale.

English Résumé : It was awarded to him for his entrepreneur skills, for managing Céline's career, the management of his business "Production Feelings" and for his philantropic attitude toward many causes like breast cancer and Montréal Ste-Justine Hospital Foundation for sick children.  All this motivated the Faculty to give René one of their annual management award.

"It's a great honour René said but I wouldn't have been able to reallize those achievements without Céline's help"

René said he was working very hard right now as this year Star Académie director and that he was going to enter very soon a sabbatical year to spend more time with his family.

"I have lots of ideas but I'll take a full year to think about it but more importanly to try and have a second child."

René is among four personnalities whom have been honoured for their achievement and contribution to society.

I did the best I could to translate, Bonne Lecture!

I didn't think about this, but yeah Rene has been a manager for so long so he deserves something woo hoo! :D
* December 18, 2008. 1st time ever in front row for a concert and it was with my idol Celine!
Dream #1 accomplished.

While singing a ballad the only time Celine looked at me was the time I had my sign up luckily!
She stretched out her arm palm faced up while singing with even more emotion in her eyes when she saw it, so it seemed like it was just for me at that moment.
Dream #2 accomplished with the extra bonus!

She came and left on my side. I went out 1 row, held up my sign and she stopped, held it herself,
and just looked at it with an awe expression on her face, stunned and amazed when she saw all the glitter!
She looked me in the eyes with those beautiful brown eyes of hers she was tuned into me at that moment and didn't look away, again her looking so emotional as I said with a sincere look on my face to her "It took me 5 hours to make this." (could have been more not sure)
She looked down and away very touched like maybe she wanted to cry then she HUGGED me!!!
She held me for more than just a moment She really took her time! I said to her while about to cry from the hug, "I love you so much!" Then that was it I don't think she said a word to me.
I was crying and saying omg all night with my heart racing and my mind in SHOCK from the unexpected hug and my eyes so sore from crying. I was ready to drop when I got home, but was so emotional I stayed up until 6:30 a.m.! Cried a little for a few days after. Sign and front row seat saved the day!
Dream #3 accomplished... Me at :13 NOT my video.
