A Shocking fact about Celine's performance of "I finally found someone"

[PuraVida]

 

 

No, the Grammys were in February and the Divas in April 1998.

It's a shame, that they have never sung the song live together.

They had the chance in London last year, but Babs had stage fright again🤭.

 

She got over her stage fright in 1994...she’s had multiple big tours since then and performed at least twice on awards shows. I’m not sure why people still think she has stage fright, nor why Celine said so in the Andy Cohen interview.

 

She doesn’t perform live much because she doesn’t like touring from what I can remember, but I think her fear is over.

 

I think their teams just didn’t coordinate...or Barbra just was being her usual self and had more important things to do...I mean, it’s really Celine who should have appeared on Barbra’s stage, and I’m sure Celine didn’t allow time for that in this case

I remember when Gloria Estefan were joking Céline about blowing her off onstage for their upcoming duet for Céline’s CBS show lol

Tell Him Grammy rehearsal

 

So cool! Argh, Celine sounded great. They would've gotten a standing-O for sure! Then I'm sure the song would've taken off even more.

 

Very rare indeed.

They would get one just for showing up. Like Céline did at the Aretha tribute before even performing.

It’s nice that they remained friends to this day. Gloria saw Céline on both the TCWT and Courage World Tour and let’s not forget that she even has a photo of her in her home, along with family photos.

I would love to see that snl sketch where Celine is blowing her away

Barbra sure can be a b*tch at times... She also called in sick the day of the Grammy Awards when she was supposed to sing Tell Him with Céline... so Céline had to sing MHWGO instead...

 

I am happy she did! Don't care at all about Tell Him. I am glad we have that performance of MHWGO!

It's not the same singing solo and singing with another singer of the caliber of Celine on a big stage. Just look for example at Mariah's expressions/face in her duet with Whitney at Oprah vs. at the Oscars. At Oprah, she was comfortable and even outsung Whitney, whereas at the Oscars, she was completely frightened. Even Whitney was more serious there, because that's what big stages do to you.

Barbra is a diva, and that's why she cancelled the performances. But I honestly believe that it was more because she was scared, panicked, more than because she hated being there with Celine.
