[Celine Fan 77]

Here’s a couple of rare videos from Eurovision 1988:

• Céline’s rehearsal before the show.


• Second performance after winning the competition.

Nothing new, just reaffirming both team are still in discussion.

"Lematin.ch has learned that Céline Dion's name has been included in the scripts sent to the press. On Tuesday May 13, during the first semi-final, the theme of which is the return home of the famous song contest, a tribute is paid to the woman who made Switzerland win thirty-seven years ago. On Saturday May 17, during the final, two minutes are reserved for Céline Dion. This could be a video message, or a flesh-and-blood presence in Basel of the diva, who probably wouldn't be singing."

Well, I don't care about the MET, but if she doesn't appear neither there nor at the Eurovision, then clearly things are not going anywhere.

None of this would be head scratching if Celine herself didn’t make it sound like she’s “already back a little bit” and that she’s “preparing a new show” over a YEAR ago.

It’s understandable if Celine is now living day by day because of her illness, but why even say she’s coming back so matter a fact-ly just to disappear again? I’d say maybe she had a setback but she still randomly pops up in Florida for golf and London for gods knows what?

It’s all odd.

If it's just 2 minutes that have been reserved for her it would be the video message.
Don't think she will go through everything for just standing there.

Only 2 minutes? It will be just a message.

[Ajax]

If it s not for singing it s clear that she can’t do it anymore no ?

[anewdayhascome]

That really sucks 🥺 hope it's just plan B 🥺

[No1IrishFan]

Don’t want to get ahead of myself cause we don’t know what’s planned this month, but if no MET gala and Eurovision is a no show or video message, I’ll be closer to joining the nothings coming camp.

We’re nearly a year since the Paris Olympics and aside from whispers and a one off lipped appearance, there’s been nothing. It doesn’t make any sense.

There definitely will be a video for Eurovision but that was recorded months ago, and means nothing in terms of the grand picture.

I am ice-skating atm and normally it's radio music, today it's opera for some unknown reason and Carmen is just on.... Is it a (good) sign?!😱😅🙈

And then today we hear that she’s going to be a part of Paul McCartneys movie, so all hope is not lost if she doesn’t perform here. She already had her huge moment at the Olympics

Yeah, but we have going to wait two years to enjoy this project because the movie will be released in 2027.

Well look how long we had to wait for her to perform, over 4 years! It’ll fly and hopefully that time will be filled with other surprises. This is a great sign that she’s willing to be a part of this

[LukeD]

I have given this lots of thought.

Part of me wanted her to be there because I have missed her and I would like her to have her moment again. Millions of people watch the ESC and she deserves all the praise.

However, I realised that I am OK with her not attending the contest due to a number of reasons. First, she needs to always prioritise her health. Second, ESC has become too political with its stance to be apolitical. Third, the Olympics last year raised a significantly high standard for her career and image - the EUS simply cannot compete. Fourth, as far-fetched as it is, maybe attending the contest will give the impression that she has no career and only makes an appearance in big events once a year.

Either way, I am super excited about the short Celine tribute and maybe a pre-recorded video of hers! It will create buzz and remind everyone of the legend she is.

The hype for this started at the end of the ceremony last year when ABBA didn’t turn up to perform and once we knew it would be held in Switzerland.

If her health is good which it appears to be recently thank god, then yeah 100% she will be there.

All this stuff in the press that they are still talking to her ppl is BS as they originally wanted this to be a surprise.
End of the day if shes fit to be there she will be and so I think unless things change with her health, this appearance is a cert!

This is exactly why we need an update because now people will assume she’s regressed if she doesn’t show up: when in fact she might’ve never agreeed to it to begin with.

“According to the newspaper Blick, a rehearsal for Celine Dion took place at the St. Jakobshalle, with an understudy and an orchestra, and with the intention of entering the stage by elevator.

While SRG SSR remains silent, the Canadian singer's appearance has not yet been confirmed: her team has reportedly given its agreement in principle, with the possibility of canceling at the last minute in the event of health concerns.”

^ This sounds sensible and in alignment with the reality we are dealing with. Nothing can be confirmed due to the possibility of last minute cancellations due to health issues.

Right ?! lol yes it does seem reasonable tho Luke!

[Nmj]

Do we know what day she would perform IF she does indeed take part in it?

[anewdayhascome]

Only the final would make sense

Going back in time, here’s Céline’s press conference right after winning Eurovision in 1988 with English subtitles:

I hope I’m wrong but could this be the rehearsal for the tribute. Maybe the person assumed it was the rehearsal for Celine’s performance whereas in fact it is some kind of impersonation and tribute with someone dressed as her.

[Nmj]

The funny part is or not so funny… much of speculation of her going to Eurovision was fueled even more by the social media post when she won that they posted days ago.
I’ve never seen a team who uses “Easter eggs”‘as a form of trolling due to their stupidity. Just don’t post anything on the matter at that point.

The only silver lining that will happen IF she doesn’t attend will be the world will see just how much a joke her team is, like everyone here knows already.

Edited by Nmj, 07 May 2025 - 07:21 AM.

[ryba]

I'm sure she will not attend.

[comingback]

Her team posted pics from the Met Gala and she wasn't there this year.
Yes, they posted about Eurovision 1988, but I think she will send a message. Maybe she will appear when she has something to promote (new show, album)��.
