Tensions between Vito Luprano and Celine/René

[Ororo Munroe]

http://www.cyberpresse.ca/arts/musique/201...stina-maria.php this is an article in French which explains that Vito Luprano is not going to produce the next album of Céline Dion, René thought that he was earning too much money, much more money than the directors of Sony Music in Canada. René decided to not contact him to choose the next songs for the next album of Céline, it could explain a lot of things. Now Vito is carring on a new singer in Canada. He explained that prefers to work with this singer than Céline because, Céline doesn't writte her songs. He explained too that he is going to writte a book to reveal his truth.

You can use google translation.

Reveal the truth of Céline not singing her own songs??

 

These reasons sounds quite unlikely to me though. Not being asked coz you already earn too much money? Rather wants to work with someone else than Céline? It all sounds very.... childish, and unproffesional.

Oh my god

[duri]

True is she was working very long time with the same people, maybe it´s time for change, hope new producer will mean succsess for new album(s).

[Goffy]

True is she was working very long time with the same people, maybe it´s time for change, hope new producer will mean succsess for new album(s).

Amen

My speech.

 

But I'm quite curious about what he wants to reveal in his book? That she isn't writing her songs by herself is a reeeeal secret..

That Céline's team is outdated and her career needs some fresh air is a fact that's been crying out for a decade now.

 

We've seen her career going in circles but without any progress for a long time. So if Vito's departure from the team has served to open their eyes and leave the stagnation she is in, great!

[Céline's Blues]

OH MY GOD! :o :o :o :o :o

[Peppercorn1991]

I read this earlier and to be honest i was relived that she would have someone fresh. He already knows what she can do with her voice, a new producer will be able to get Celine to do new things with her voice, experiment. The experiment stage has gone with vito, perhaps after falling into you.

 

I dont see this as negative, but a really good positive! These next albums will be different, that's what has been lacked for years now, ive seen time and time again fans saying, she needs a new team! I just hope they find someone amazing!

If this is true, indeed it is good news. I welcome any change to her team.

Perhaps Rene and Mego need to take a backseat too and really change her team! I just want some new material. Is it really asking for much after a 5year wait?

[No1IrishFan]

But guys, Rene and Celine may know the style they want, and Vito was the one who helped them achieve it. We may think this is great news, someone new producing for her, but what if Rene doesnt want to adopt a new style. He may look for someone 'old fashioned'. Things like this could even push the album back, as Rene will not pick anyone at random. He has a style and method that they obviously like to stick to. For example, getting Babyface to produce At Seventeen. A new producer will only produce what Celine/Rene like. Of course I could be surprised...

[celinemaniacaik]

Well he can go away if he wants to! His loss! 'Reveal; the truth' made me laugh!

[Bell]

I hope it's a change for better.

[CelineAndRene]

Publicity seeker....

[Davey84]

Yes but just like with Jean-Jacques; if the inspiration is gone, then it's no use continueing with the same people...

Yes she achieved a lot with him, but who knows what she can achieve with others!

[LVCeline]

Am I the only one going "who the heck is Vito Luprano?" Is he a producer or a record company executive to Celine? The name sounds familiar, but why should we be upset about them not working together anymore? What will that result in?

[donpi86]

If this is true, indeed it is good news. I welcome any change to her team.

I agree... Bye bye Luprano, be welcoming new producers of nowdays styles... In the other hand.. finally Celine gets some business enemies to reveal some dark sides of this monument of Joy and Love... probably if he writes a boom it's going to be a little bit of lies and some truth but it's going to give a new interesting view of Celine

[Matias]

Vito shouldn "bite" the hand of someone who put him on the spotlight, he made a huge breaktrough in his career thanks to Celine and Rene

[CelineTheBest5]

I think he was totally unprofessional when he was talking about Celine and Rene this way, probably Rene is very desappointed about the way Vito is acting. Out of ethics!

[Davey84]

He produced these albums:

 

1993 Pelchat Mario Pelchat

1993 The color of my love Céline Dion

1998 D'eux Céline Dion

1998 Jade Corey Hart

2000 Seul Garou

2001 Seul... avec vous Garou

2001 A new day has come Céline Dion

2003 Reviens Garou

2003 One heart Céline Dion

2004 A new day... Live in Las Vegas Céline Dion

2005 On ne change pas Céline Dion

2006 Garou Garou

2006 Marilou Marilou

2008 Piece of my soul Garou

 

I guess you should see him like Jean-Jacques did D'elles: the head producer....

 

Don't forget people, that he was fired by sony in 2008! I guess it was only a matter of time....

Ever heard of a dignified silence Vito? There was NO need for this even to be a news story other than for the chance for him to be disrespectful to Celine, a person who he's worked with for 20 years! It would've been far more classy if he'd just moved onto pastures new without saying a word.

 

The general feeling seems to be Vito will miss Celine, not the other way around. I also welcome change!

What's wrong with joy and love? I think there are enough negative things in the world. If you ask me, we need MORE joy and love. Much more.

 

Anyway, it will be interesting to see where this goes, even though - please don't shoot me - I honestly don't care about her music and what she does with it. I like what I like and don't pay attention to chart performances/producers/all that.

As a fan, I am ready to listen. I'm eager to know what Vito has to say (if this news are accurate).

 

Céline has always been politically correct in her career, always very diplomatic in every aspect and with everyone. Sometimes this is excessive.

 

For 30 years of career we haven't had any feedback of what her team thinks about the music Céline is doing and what were their personal opinions. But fortunately, with the new 2011 show we've known that some band members and even Humberto Gatica, when asked, admitted that they would have done things differently regarding the songs she sings in her concerts and the music direction she tooks. Humberto himself admitted in a recent interview that Céline's career needs an impulse and some fresh air because it is blocked.

 

So if Vito Luprano has something to say about this, I want to listen Of course with due respect.

[Prima_Donna1]

Wow I never saw this coming. He has worked with Celine for years. As many people are saying here time for a change. I just hope that it does not turn out bad.

[sailornic]

this is a wrong translation

it say that he was earning more money than the previous 4 directors of sony.

because of that he was let go.

René was not please by the fact that they let him go because he was his only contact in sony/BMG in canada.

he was not ask to work with celine (since sony is not working with him)

about the book, it say celine have a book, rené also and he's about to get his own book because he have a story to tell for each song

he also add that when you believe in one artist he or she have to be the only one.

he say that kristina is writing her own songs, not celine. he love to work with the writer/author.

He did not say that he rather work with kristina than celine and the book is not about to bash celine but just to tell us the inside of every songs.

I agree this is a much better translation. I didn't fget the impression that there were any tension.

I was about to make those precisons too. Thank you!

To be honest, I think Celine needs a change and I think that overall, this must be something positive for her!

[celine-rc]

I agree with Del. I didn't get the impression either that there was tension, just some misunderstanding and confusing.

 

I just find it a bit frustrating to see people that have been working with her for 25 years leave to work with some new hot young singer...
