重要消息：Billboard 证实 Celine 近期不会出新专辑。

From Billboard.com:

 

Hello Fred,

 

You must get quite frustrated with so many questions about the divas: Janet [Jackson], Whitney [Houston], Mariah [Carey] and Madonna. However, a diva not mentioned a lot is Celine Dion. I am a huge fan. Are there any plans for a new studio album in the near future? It's been three years since "One Heart" was released. I know Celine is wrapping up her Las Vegas shows but I miss her in the spotlight. Any word from her label?

 

Could you also list the last few releases according to her sales figures?

 

Thank you so much. I love reading your column.

 

Thank you for thinking of other divas!

 

Regards,

Brandon Vernaz

 

 

Dear Brandon,

 

I not only have word from Celine Dion's label, I have word from Celine. Since her last album was released, there has been a shakeup in the executive ranks at her label. Charlie Walk was named President of Epic Records in December 2005. He reported to Don Ienner, chairman and CEO of the Sony Music Label Group, and Michele Anthony, president and chief operating officer. In June, Ienner and Anthony exited the company.

 

Chuck Taylor, senior editor of Radio & Records and singles reviews editor for Billboard, asked Walk about the label's commitment to Celine as an artist and Walk reaffirmed that commitment. Last month, Chuck met with Celine and her manager/husband Rene Angelil in Las Vegas. He asked them if they were working on a new project, and neither Celine nor Rene said that anything was in the works.

 

There was a greatest hits CD and DVD of Celine's French recordings released in 2006, along with a couple of new singles and videos recorded in French, which did well in French-speaking territories.

 

Chuck reminds that Celine did record one new song this year, "Let Your Heart Decide," based on a French song from a 2005 studio album, for the soundtrack to the animated film "Asterix and the Vikings." The song has not been released in the United States, but you can find a video for it on You Tube.

 

The only thing I can't give you is sales figures. Chart Beat and Chart Beat Chat can only deal with chart positions, per Billboard policy.

No,I can't believe it!

[Kong]

无所谓，有《A New Day...》的DVD已经是最大的安慰了。

[steven]

算了,新专集我已经不指望了,哎~~~~

[Shall]

其实出得太频繁了也不好呀~

[hwflcd]

那太好了.这样CELINE就可为下一张专集做更好的选曲工作了.也不用那么辛苦 .现在就是等<A NEW DAY>的DVD发行

[summercold]

celine需要好好沉淀一下，不需要这么急，再多等上一段时间也无所谓

对琳新的英文录音室专集很是期待，不知会不会改变风格

[Bellamy]

感觉 Celine 的下一张专辑很可能是爵士风格的。

[scarletear]

i was waiting for so long……！

[vivien]

感觉 Celine 的下一张专辑很可能是爵士风格的。

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

呵呵，英雄所见略同啊

我不希望celine今年出专辑，希望她把这张专辑做精

[florence5829]

時間長點也無所謂,只要她好好的去做她的new album就好啦,到那個時候,甚麼grammy,juno,WMA,AMA都可能是她的囊中物!!

[memory]

继续等，重在质量嘛

[chenping]

我等了好久阿！！！

我等得都快哭了！

 

怎么？怎么！…………

[celinedionjy]

缓的时间长点也好。或许明天专集的水平成超过96年也呢，
