Is Celine 'Personality Of The Year'?
August 9 , 2010

This August 25 in Montreal, VRAK-TV, a Quebec youth television channel, is organizing the KARV ceremony anti-gala 2010. Celine is nominated in the category 'Personality Of The Year'. Will she add this prize to her collection? We'll find out August 25!

I think the fact that she has even been nominated by a youth channel is quite an achievement for her considering the only things she has publicly done this year is release the movie and get pregnant. If she actually wins then it will be great but it doesn't say much about the 2010 exploits of the other nominees. Fingers crossed though.

[Angel2006]

Wow that's great!! I hope she wins.    "Go Celine"!!    

[Claudette]

I also find it kind of weird considering she hasn't done anything this year. What I'm thinking is that they nominated her because of the whole she stayed strong throughout her whole struggle to get pregnant and what not.

[Davey84]

yeah I hope she wins too! I hope the youth of Québec will see her as a rolemodel!

Well I wouldn't have thought the viewers of a youth channel would have much interest in wether Celine has had difficulty in her pregnancies. But either way it's great to see she is still relevant to a large young audience, even considering it's a biased one in her native land.

[ghazal]

im sure she wins!!! GO Celine

Surely to be personality of the year you have to be around? In the media having done something? Giving people a chance to see your personality? LOL

The only award Celine gets this year is the "not seen at all" award.

[Bumble]

Giving her that award would be like telling her: "don't show up and do anything at all, you'll win anyway". I'm sorry, but she doesn't deserve that award this year.

[Snowhite]

I wish we could vote for her

[Claudette]

I've been thinking: it is not entirely true that she hasn't done anything. I mean the tour DVD's did brilliantly in Canada. She took part in the new version of ''We are the World'' and she also donated a lot of money for that cause (not to mention the other charity stuff she does).

Edit: I almost forgot: She also did the MJ tribute at the Grammys.

You're so right.    Celine did some really important things (which you already listed) .. in this year.
Celine deserves to win .. And she will win (I'm sure   ) .. Go Celine. go!  

P.S. Does anyone know if we will be able to see it online?

[Céline's Blues]

Oh sure she is. Give her enough money and she will appear there. She may even consider lipping. Singing live costs extra (FACT from the producers of French shows in France - Reney demands disastrously high fees for Céline to sing live.)

[celine-rc]

I don't think she's going to win. Young people here hate Céline, it's like their passion and looking at the other people, it's going to be like Mariloup Wolfe, Rachid Badouri or probably Louis-José Houde. Plus with Véro and all, her chances are real slim. I'd be real surprised if she won. We can still pray and hope. I wish we could vote for her.

[Sofie]

C'line-rc is probably right, but I stil hope she wins! I would love to vote too!

[wjd]

Celine commands more respect nowadays - from all age groups - than she ever did before.

She doesn't need some silly award - which is the equivalent of the pathetic Teen Choice Awards in the USA.

Celine has done loads of things this year, for which she should be commended.

[SensationalCeline]

I think she should win but if she did, I wonder if she would show up.  It could be possible that she does an at home video thank you sort of thing. Then we could see her!!!

I couldn't agree more!

I totally agree, with you on that one.   I hope our dear Celine, wins the award though.  

[Little_Jay]

Her chances are in fact, really slim..But I want to see her win so bad! And like SensationalCeline said, we could see her if she wins! CELINE MUST WIN

[davidjag79]

Would love Celine to win    but don't see it happening...

[CelineDionFan710]

would love celine to win <3

[volleyceline]

She has the best personality, but she's been kinda incognito all this year
She's a wonderful idol with a hilarious and inspiring personality!

There isn't a place where we all can vote for her?

[Celinechick]

She should get it. Even though she hasn't done a lot this year.

[ladylindsey]

Go Big Mama! You are my personality of the universe. Like He-Man. Okay like She-ra. But with your voice. And a microphone instead of a sword.  Princess of Power.

bwahahahhaaha

"I AMMMMMM DIONNNNNNNNNN!" "Celine Dion" omg I just died. She'ras theme song will never be the same.

Anywayyyyy I hope she wins!

I know MANY young people in Canada who LOVE Céline!!! You can't make a statement like "Young people here hate Céline" unless you did a poll...  

Don't forget that by nominating Céline, these Awards get way more press coverage!  

[celine-rc]

That's true! I really hadn't thought of that! If she wins, we might see her! But, it's really too bad that we can't vote because living in Québec and dealing with people who always watch Vrack TV all the time, the chances that she wins are I would say, pretty close to zero. I mean, they don't care about her or anything. Seeing the other people on the list too, just crushes all of her chances. I really want her to win so much! She has to! She's got the best personnality in all of those! The competition is tuff, the other people are good people that everyone likes and all but still, Céline has to win. She hasn't won any prize of some sort in a real long time, plus coming from young people, it would be even better. The others win stuff all the time these days. It's Céline's turn!

^^^The best response, IMO. I don't see how a younger demographic would want to vote for Celine. If she had released a French-language album this past year, then maybe they would vote for her. Otherwise, I don't see it happening. That said, I find it incredible, nonetheless that she's still revered in Canada. I traveled to Montreal during the same week her two dvds were coming out, and there were billboard of her all over the place. She was on the radio (especially Rythem FM), and on television. They treat her as a queen, and deservedly so.

[Angel2006]

If she is nominated does she have to be at the ceremony, even if she doesn't win?

Does anyone know if this ceremony will be broadcast on tv, is it like an award show?

OMG. I really hope Celine wins so we can see her. Imagine Celine going up on stage with a big belly!!    

I don't know anything about this award ceremony. Does anyone know if it's a big thing that get's lot's of press coverage?
