Back to the subject...

 

We all know (or SHOULD know) that Céline has a shoe fettish and has HUNDREDS of pairs...

 

but she also collects miniature tea cups.

[hamiltonclare]

Teacups - bless!

[C.D._LoVer]

The deodorant thing was something she mentioned on an interview in 1992. She also mentions that she touches thumbs with everyone in the band, she is very supersticious...Like when you say Knock on wood she has to knock on wood. (And she said it and there wasnt any wood about and she started to look for some! It was so cute!) She mentioned some other things too but i cant remember what!

 

Here's a fact...did anybody know that Celine is the youngest of 14 children! lol

 

She only mentions it in EVERY interview...God love her!

 

Great topic btw!

[SensationalCeline]

The fact that Celine was tagged before as canine dion. But I won't really mind it if I were in celine shoes for as long as i have the most beautiful voice, and that's a FACT! (",)

 

I hated reading that she was picked on because of her teeth. I didn't like it when it was done to me. My teeth were so horrible before I got braces, I didn't even smile for my school photos until they looked sort of ok but now I got them off after going through the whole process for 7 years. I love my teeth now. I can't stop smiling! The lady at my ortho. told me that when she got her braces off, she was driving home and looking in the car mirror at her teeth and almost had a rear end collision. But yeah, I don't think Celine has changed that much since she was younger, just her hair color and her teeth. The Fact that when she was singing in a shopping mall, people were stealing in the stores.

[CelineRox]

Did you know that Celine has 13 brother's and sister's?!

 

I'm surprised she has never mentioned this before!

[nrcda88]

ok this isnt really a Celine fact but RC..

I got My Story My Dream recently and read that RC's first name is Joseph.

[color="#800080"]

Yeah, I think she named her son after Rene's father whose name was Joseph...[/color]

[Galuush]

Celine Fact: Rene was not Celine's first Manager, it was a guy named Paul Levesque. he had a five year contract with her.

Really?! Good to know

What happend with this guy?!

[Bralo20]

She owns a couple of companies and is an investor in some others?

 

 

Renlec Enterprises Inc.

Feeling Productions Inc.

Five Star Feeling Inc.

CDA Productions Inc.

Le Club de Golf Le Mirage

 

Investor in:

 

Pure Management Group Inc.

Resto Pro Group Inc.

 

And probably some others...

[Bellamy]

Nickles?

Cool

 

 

About the botox thing: as everyone said- I don't think she really needs it, but I hope that it woun't ruin her face expression.

[Bralo20]

Nickles?

 

Is a part of the Resto Pro group now.

 

 

Resto Pro is owned by the 3 other shareholders of Nickles. I couldn't find anything relating a possible sale of Celine and Rene their shares in Nickles so I don't think they sold their shares and are just investors now in the new group.

 

 

All the companies mentioned above are based in Canada, however some have subsidiaries in the USA.

 

There are probably other companies outside Canada en the US also

I thought they cut all ties to Nickles

Good to know..thanks for the info

[Bralo20]

Which is also possible... But I can't find anything that states they sold their shares to the Resto Pro Group but neither can I find that she didn't sold their shares... However the Resto Pro group just is mentioning the 3 other owners who were also the co owners of Nickles...

 

The Nickles restaurants still mention "created by Céline Dion" so I don't think they cut all ties with the group.

 

So both can be possible

[Linn92]

I don't know if this one is mentioned, but it's so many pages in this thread

 

Celine has tried hash and tried smoke xD

[Lou555]

Every boy have the name Joseph when baptised catholic in Québec just like every girl gets Marie.

That's why Céline has Marie too on her birth certificate. Usually the full name, like in Céline's case, would be Marie(Joseph for a boy), the name of the goodmother (Claudette) her sister in Céline's case(the name of the godfather for a boy), and the first name that your parents gave you. So, in Québec, when we read sometimes people calling Céline 'Céline Marie Claudette Dion' it makes us smile here because her name is really only Céline Dion (Marie and Claudette being there for catholic baptisim only like everyone else and Claudette being her goodmother as I explain before). All those other names are only on baptism papers or birth certificate for everyone but not our legal name. Anyway, I though explaining that because it seems it's not a custom everywhere in the world I guess. So Céline is really call only Céline Dion! and RC's legal name is only

René-Charles!

Wow...thanks for the info...that explains alot, I have always wondered why she also had Claudette in her name when her sister had the name already - thats really interesting

A bit similar to Belgium... However here nobody gets a name from the church wether they are baptised or not... However it was very common to receive 2 additional names. The name of the godmother and the name of the godfather (Most of the boys with 3 first names do carry a female first name, as for girls they do carry a male name). My full name for example is Stijn Alice Jan Verbeeck. Stijn is my given name, Alice was my godmother and Jan is my godfather and ofcourse Verbeeck is my last name. But contrary to Canada those names are listed on every piece of offcial paper. My identity card, my passport and my driverslicense are all mentioning my 3 first names. I used to have my 3 first names in my signature but I've changed that, it was a bit to long when you need to sign documents on a regular base

 

But never heard about a Joseph or Marie name given by the catholic church... Although Belgium is near full catholic. This day it's not so common any more to give a child 3 first names, it was more something from the past. Although I like it

 

It's an interesting fact to see that there are also other countries who give their child multiple first names.

[PopMusicBoy]

Celine's mother battled depression while she was pregnant with her.

 

"The Reason" was the original intended album title and first single for "Let's Talk About Love."

 

Gloria Estefan's "Heaven's What I Feel" was written for Celine's LTAL album but was scrapped because it didn't fit with the album's direction.

 

"Because You Loved Me" was originally written for Mariah Carey.

 

Celine used her own make-up for the "Where Does My Heart Beat Now" video while her sister did her hair due to low budget.

 

 

more later

[stevo]

and The Reason was meant for Aerosmith...and david Foster was going to get Whitney to sing All By Myself as blackmail to get Celine to do it

[Davey84]

"Because You Loved Me" was originally written for Mariah Carey.

 

No it was Toni Brakston there's a topic about that

 

 

oh this is something people don't know... Céline loves shoes
