Another really nice article. Pasted some choice quotes below:

The Kit: Celine Dion Fans Share What She Means to Us All

"She was ‘authentic’ long before that became a buzzword."

"She’s so successful by every measure, she’s powerful in that sense and so competent, but she seems to have such fun doing it"

“It’s a certain French-Canadian combination of 'grit' and 'goofball'"

"She’s always stayed so true to who she is: a kind and quirky Québecoise who is absolutely obsessed with singing."

"If we could all be a little more like Céline, we’d laugh more, live our passions, be kinder to one another, and I guess, respond to more questions in song."

“She’s so fiery in the things she loves and pursues.”

“Over a long career, she’s been steadfast in pursuing what she loves, full force. What better way to live?”

"She’s this fierce and gentle force, which feels pretty rare in pop culture today.”

“I think I love her most for the reminder she offers us all: to be your true, most authentic self, quirks and all. Throughout her life and career, she’s modelled that you don’t need to compromise love, laughter and a bit of delightful weirdness to be successful.”

Really like this one. Showing she has always been authentic and amazing as we all here already knew but so many seem to be finally seeing.

Spotted a Celine billboard at Times Square this morning en route to the office. Same one posted to her socials several days ago - still running this AM.

Why is some random person posting a St. John Baptist Day on Céline's Twitter?😏


They need to stop with this "Team Céline" signature..it does not look good and somehow doesn't look professional to me either.

Yeah, agreed. Especially for that message. It really should have come from her.

Because this team is incompetent.

Love that they acknowledged all her 27 studio albums! Too bad their list does not reflect her 80s music.

There was also mention of how she's been around for almost 35 years when it's almost 45 years.

Well that’s because it wasn’t promoted as a theatrical release.  The real money will be the Amazon prime release tomorrow.

Let’s be honest, they only did this to create so buzz around the doc, and that it has!

Yes, I think they did the theatrical release as an award-qualifying run (it's still running in at least one theatre around where I'm at so should hit the 7-day qualifying window).

I think it’s available at 12am PST worldwide. It’s available at 3am EST which is the equivalent to 12am PST.

Here on my amazon prime it’s says available to me at 3AM EST. Where I’m at on the east coast.
The watch party is 8pm EST and 5pm PST. But we can watch on our own before that.
!
Basically, 10.5 hours from now worldwide.

Adulting sucks sometimes. But at least something to look forward too when you get home.

Another one with Irene, from The Strait Times: https://www.straitst...drome-suffering

Excerpt:

"When Taylor first showed Dion the director’s cut, “she gently cried through most of it”.
“But she had little moments of laughter too. She doesn’t really think she’s funny even though she is.”
Dion really believed in the film, Taylor adds. “I know this because she said, ‘I don’t want you to change anything.’”
[…]
Taylor notes: “I was prepared for her to be kind and funny, but not as kind and funny as she is. And her level of openness is rare.
[…]
“She saw that, ‘Wow, I really don’t wear make-up for most of it, and I really am having a hard time during that medical episode, and I am very upset in that moment.’
“And for her to just say, ‘Let’s do this. This is my experience and this is what I want to let people see’ – that is very remarkable and very rare.”

I wonder if they plan to also release a director’s cut later down the line…

If anyone has an AARP membership... this appears to be another interview with Irene.

Do we even know if the “directors cut” is any different from the Final Cut?

The way Irene made it sound, she showed Celine something different than what we are seeing. Saying that she showed Celine the “Director’s cut” is very specific.

She specifically said Celine didn't ask her to change anything at all - she didn't want to cut or add anything, just confirmed she wanted to keep that scene.
