I would like to post my own replies on the forum from ppl I've tweeted to on twitter regarding a questions I've asked, if thats ok...

Yeah Barnev said it should be the same show!

[Cheerfuljane]

Maybe they just realized that it would be too restrictive and would attract only a certain demographic.
They might still have a few classic hollywood songs but that won't be the main emphasis.

[davidjag79]

I'm kinda relieved... She didn't mention the "Hollywood theme" at all on Larry King

[Alex_Incognito]

If it is the FIY Part 5 I will shoot myself.  

Céline...René...can you hear me?  Can  BLYM, TLYM, IACBTMN, LCMM, RDMH---in fact---let's pretend that the FIY, LTAL, and D'eux albums were ever recorded and move forward.

[Nmj]

man i sure hope that its cut out of the show, or minimized into a small medley of songs... i hope that Celine didnt just forget to mention it on Larry King Live, and we could all be speculating about nothing... i hope someone gives us a answer soon...from a reliable source like Rene, or Ken Enrich (the producer)

NEW SHOW TO PREMIERE MARCH 15, 2011 AT THE COLOSSEUM AT CAESARS PALACE
Tickets for first 54 performances go on-sale Friday, February 12, 2010
February 10, 2010 (LAS VEGAS) – Confirming the buzz that has been circulating for months, Celine Dion announced today that she will be returning to Las Vegas in March 2011 to begin a three year residency at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. The brand-new show designed exclusively for The Colosseum will premiere on March 15, 2011 and features 31 musicians, consisting of a full orchestra and band. The show’s concept will be one-of-a-kind, centered on capturing the romance of classic Hollywood movies and performed with a stunning visual presentation. Tickets for the first 54 performances from March 15 through August 14, 2011 will go on sale Friday, February 12, 2010 at 10 a.m. PST.
“I'm coming back home to the Colosseum at Caesars Palace and I'm very excited about it,” said Celine. “With the orchestra and the band we’re going to be able to perform our songs like never before. The repertoire is going to be extraordinary...a mix of timeless Hollywood classics, along with all the favorites that my fans like to hear me sing. It’s going to be a very beautiful show, and I think we’ll be raising the bar higher than we’ve ever done before. There’ll be some truly wonderful moments……I can’t wait!”
“AEG is excited about the return of the Female Artist of the Decade,” said John Meglen, President and co-CEO of AEG Live/Concerts West. “Celine's impact on the entertainment standard in Las Vegas is the bar all others compare to. We look forward to her return to The Colosseum. We are excited about continuing our success with Caesars Palace and are optimistic on the future of Las Vegas.”
“Caesars Palace is thrilled to welcome Celine’s fans from all over the world,” said Gary Selesner, president of the famed resort. “I can’t overstate the excitement among our team members, guests and partners, all of whom consider Celine and her husband Rene special members of the Caesars Palace family.”
After five consecutive years of sold-out shows at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace, Celine embarked on a year-long worldwide tour in 2008-2009, visiting five continents, 25 countries and playing to more than 3 million fans. Following the conclusion of the tour, and after taking a year off to enjoy some valuable family time, Celine is preparing for her triumphant return to Las Vegas in 2011. Having sold more than 200 million albums around the world, Celine Dion is one of the most immediately recognized, widely respected and successful performers in pop music history. During her spectacular career Celine has been honored with over 1000 awards. She is a five-time Grammy Award winner, including Album of the Year and Best Pop Album for Falling Into You (1996); and Record of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "My Heart Will Go On" (1998). Her recordings have won two Academy Awards®: Best Original Song in 1992 for the title song of Beauty and the Beast (with Peabo Bryson), and Best Original Song in 1998 for "My Heart Will Go On" (From Titanic). She has earned seven American Music Awards, 20 Juno Awards (Canada) and an astonishing 40 Felix Awards (Quebec). In 2004, Celine received the Diamond award at the World Music Awards recognizing her status as the best-selling female artist of all time. In 2007 she was honored with the Legend Award at World Music Awards in recognition of her global success and outstanding contribution to the music industry.

The Press Conference is still the same
I really hope they got rid of the movie songs.

[JCeline85]

the press conference is still the same because it's a press conferance.. that's what she said..

[Nmj]

im sorry that was a press release not conference but anyways someone said they changed it

[SuperLove4Celine]

Well, IF the movie theme has been cut then we can kiss any chance of "Then You Look At Me" ever being performed live goodbye.  

[celínico_sin_remedio]

If all this speculation finally becomes true, I will believe again in the fact that Céline's still inspired by her own music, and that's all that concerns me right now. Creativity on the right way. Gotta love it. (Of course I would be assuming she won't sing again the very same songs she's been doing in the past, but... ok setlist needed here. Wikileaks! We need u!

Neither do I, but with a show surrounding itself around movies and their music, the song would have had a heck of a lot more chances of getting added somewhere down the road.  Take the movie theme out of the mix and you kiss that officially goodbye.

Edwin, once some of us have exprimed our minds in a trial of understanding their decisions on making a Hollywood themed show, I think it's easy to comprehend that those same of us are a bit excited by the especulations. And maybe overreacting.

I just hope for the best possible setlist though. Just. Some songs rarely performed, combined with her biggest hits in a soulful way with the help of the Orchestra. And btw I expect them to keep the hologram topic in the run.


Edit: You mean by spitting the dummy, that some of us are complaining? Sorry then, I agree in that case. Just remember what "spit the dummie" means. Escupir el chupete...  
So never mind

I Agree with you, i wish it was included as i do love that "Then you look at Me"

[Nmj]

I hope  they add a choir and use it for LCMM and other old rare gems

But I honestly never thought for real that TYLAM was going to be included, those were just dreams for me.  
So I agree, but, never took it for real...

The journalist Alexandra Diaz from LCN in Quebec reported about Celine's Interviews at Larry King and the one she gave to the magazine "7 Jours" and at one point she said that the show had "no concept".

There's no theme attached to the show yet.  (I'm not sure if there ever really will be except for the one thing Celine mentioned on LKL -- the music itself.)

It's confirmed Davey, it will be a stunning visual presentation with efects, holograms, and 3D dead singers but with no lights. Let's the music surround the Colosseum.  

Seb told me, it IS confirmed.

Robin Leach said there are three days that this:
( In twitter )


Orchestra, band, dancer, technical rehearsals already underway here for her "Salute to Hollywood" musicals + her hits! Ticket sales booming

[stevo]

Celine did seem to hesitate when Larry King asked her about the concept and she babbled about it being a pure show, about music and the voice...I do think  the Hollywood movie theme is no more- Celine is successful off her Greatest Hits- people will go to the show to see her sing them. The 25000 of us here on the forum may have tired of The Bore Medley but many millions haven't seen it yet and the producers know that. BYLM will be there...

Personally I wasn't very excited about the Movie theme anyway

[Shamrock_1982]

off topic: nice to see you back on the forum Stevo!

[davidjag79]

I'm sure we will get the hits medely as always.. but let's hope they mix in several new songs we aren't use to hearing Celine perform like they did with the TCWT (It's a Man's World, The Show Must Go On)   Of course i love her hits but i want some new material. From the Larry King interview it seems to me that the Hollywood theme is scrapped, and there is not an official theme determined at this point. I'm ready for whatever is in store   ... BRING IT CELINE!!    

[Nmj]

Is there a way we can get in contact with someone from Celines team to ask for sure????
