CynthiaTDL Posted November 4, 2010 at 04:27 AM Posted November 4, 2010 at 04:27 AM That $850m figure of her perfume sales isn't new. It came out earlier this summer when she was getting ready to release her newest fragrance, which came out this fall. Also, Celine is not worth $2bn. The newspaper just added up what her products (record sales, tours, etc) have made. That doesn't equate to what she is personally worth. As an estimation, I would say Celine is worth $500-600 million. On a side note, the Forbes Magazine figure that came out in 2007, grossly underestimated her net worth, by nearly $150-175m. Is anyone including Rene's worth. He has gotten 2/3rds of everything she has earned and as a couple thy are entitled to each other income. Quote CynthiaTDL

Guest Reuben Posted November 4, 2010 at 12:02 PM Posted November 4, 2010 at 12:02 PM Vacature, a part of a Belgian newspaper did soms calculations about the money that Céline earned through the years. Nothing special, expect that the amount of her perfumes was released... It seems that the perfume line is a real cashcow, since the start of the line back in 1997 Céline has earned 850.000.000 USD through the sales of perfumes... Overview published: Las Vegas 1: 400.000.000 USDConcerts (except Las Vegas): 522.000.000 USDAlbums: 225.000.000 USDPerfumes: 850.000.000 USD Total near 2 billion USD... I wonder if those figures are correct, in general Vacature is a very respected media regarding jobs, money, etc... Considering her perfumes werent launched until 2002/3 I doubt the source. Checking coty's website and other news sources state her perfumes have made 5-600 million, most articles are 2-3 years old though. Irrespective of what the perfumes have raked in she doesnt make that money, she has only endorsed them and lent her name. So I doubt she earns more than 10-15% of the profits. Also looking at this LA times article it states she has earned almost 750 million in the past decade alone (thats 522 million from vegas and the tc tour and 225 from album sales):http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/music_blog...ate-top-10.html However, all these numbers are quite puzzling as that would mean she has earned an average of 600 000 per concert in the past decade. Considering ticket prices have gone up during the past 10 years I wouldve thought she made more. It might be that the figures dont include the money she got from Caesars and AEG at the start of the contract. Quote
velkyprase Posted November 4, 2010 at 12:02 PM Posted November 4, 2010 at 12:02 PM It´s only gross sales, but still pretty amazing. It would be interesting to see what is her percentage of sales. Quote "There is no great genius without some touch of madness." Seneca (5 BC - 65 AD)

Is anyone including Rene's worth. He has gotten 2/3rds of everything she has earned and as a couple thy are entitled to each other income. Why would he earn 2/3 of what she earns? He is her manager not her pimp. Also I would assume that they have a prenup and probably postnup to divide their assets, even though when they are married they might share the income. Quote
velkyprase Posted November 4, 2010 at 12:26 PM Posted November 4, 2010 at 12:26 PM 2005 The house of Celine Dion ÷ as Coty executives refer to the celebrityâs growing fragrance portfolio ÷ already has amassed global retail sales close to $100 million. The addition of Belong is expected to bump retail sales across the franchise to $120 million. Industry sources estimate celebrities earn 3 to 5 percent in royalties, meaning Dion could take home $3.6 million to $6 million, not including any signing bonus she may have received.

wjd Posted November 4, 2010 at 01:44 PM Posted November 4, 2010 at 01:44 PM There are many conflicting sources. However, the most recent one we have is that her perfumes grossed $850m by the end of March 2010 (the link to the source is on her Wiki page). Also, Celine personally earns (and has done since 1998ish) around 20-30% of her album gross - its the highest of any non-songwriter in the business. I've read that she takes around 45% of her concert grosses + a high cut of merchandising and other associated expenses. From the Taking Chances tour, she will have pocketed at least $150m personally. From Vegas, she is estimated to have personally netted a "steady" income of between $150-$250m over four years. Rene doesn't get two thirds of her gross - that's rubbish. Rene gets a small cut of Celine's gross, mainly because he has negotiated for her to get such a high percentage. And as somebody as already stated, they share everything anyway. But if Celine was to divorce her husband, she'd walk away with the majority of her estate.

Céline's Blues Posted November 5, 2010 at 06:04 PM Posted November 5, 2010 at 06:04 PM Funny the more she earns the crappier her music. Unfortunate relation. Quote http://i.imgur.com/dmreJ.jpg

Every dollar is welll deserved, for giving us so much back, of her life, music, talent, heart. Edit: Celine's blues, don't agree at all. Her music is different, but definitely not crappier. Quote
