stevo Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 I thought it'd be good to have a topic to discuss the U.K shows and any info on upcoming promo and 'Brand Céline' marketing while she's here 😀 I hope she does Jonathan Ross again or Graham Norton- she was on Graham's Radio 2 show back in 2008 for TC promo so it'd be good to get her singing on his show and I think they'd be funny. 6 Quote

CelinesDIVO5 Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 I hope she does these shows and I can get tickets to go while I'm there!

RosieBarron Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Someone at work told me the other day that they had heard there was an interview with her coming up on Radio 2. They listen to Radio 2 all day at work. It seemed plausible as they then told me it was with Steve Wright which would be her usual choice. Anyone know any more about this? Quote
Shamrock_1982 Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Sony UK don't have any promo for Celine scheduled when she's here during the tour. She may do a "this morning" or "gmb/Lorraine" interview that the promoters have arranged, but don't expect anything more as my Sony UK contact confirmed last month. Shows & album/singles are handled completely differently. Quote
Shamrock_1982 Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 If she will be on radio 2 it will either be ken bruce or graham norton from previous experience. Quote
mirage Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 Shows & album/singles are handled completely differently. Think she would come back for her english album to do promo?I expect that she will do some, just like with LMBTL Quote
Shamrock_1982 Posted April 23, 2017 Posted April 23, 2017 (edited) I pushed them to reconsider as the album is due out late this year and with her Vegas schedule for early 2018 she wouldn't have time to come back for promo then and summer 2018 would just be too late to then do promo for an album. I did suggest she pre-record ahead of the first single/album release but even then it's difficult as certain big shows only air at certain times of the year. A huge opp would be judges houses for xfactor as they normally film in mid/late August and she could film on location in Europe or they could go to her in Vegas and then maybe do an exclusive first performance of her new first single as it then airs around early October!

DionFanAlways Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 How does her being without a manager effect all the promo, or does it matter? Please feel free to enlighten me! 1 Quote I have had the time of my life following this woman! Much love.
Xpresso Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 But what would she promote if she does a TV show?"Oh don't forget to buy my album coming out next year!I'll sing this one song but we don't know if it will be the first single or a single at all, or if it will even make it on the album..." 4 Quote

The idea of them going to vegas is good although it is not getting away from the fact that it is vegas.....and im pretty sure the whole aim of this album is to get as far away from the vegas vibe as possible as its supposd to be fresh, new, experimental. I dont want it tarnished with the vegas brush haha. Hopefully if it is actually good music, itll get noticed without her having to be here. 2 Quote

chocolatechip15 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) How does her being without a manager effect all the promo, or does it matter? Please feel free to enlighten me! I think she still has booking agents to get her on shows -- with a career as complex as Celine's, she has many, many people working for her. I'm pretty sure her agent is still Rob Prinz, who she's worked with at least since '97, when she named him in her Grammy speech (I may or may not have memorized all the names in that speech because I've watched that awesome video at least 10,000 times). But she was still with Rob Prinz in 2016. when this article came out: http://www.billboard.com/articles/business/7358123/rob-prinz-icm-partners-co-head-of-worldwide-concerts-from-the-desk-of -- and I'm pretty sure that Rob spoke at Rene's celebration of life. (Actually, it looks like Rob is her booking agent for concerts. Not sure if that includes TV appearances. But I imagine it's him or someone similar -- not the person in Rene's or Aldo's position). I think the day-to-day stuff like TV show bookings is still getting done -- she just doesn't have someone in charge of the overall strategy. I imagine they have someone who is serving as an interim manager -- and, for all we know, she's already working with a new manager and they haven't announced it yet (I don't think they announced Aldo right away after the decision was made, did they?)

Shamrock_1982 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Sony have nothing to do with Vegas shows or tours... only singles/albums/music videos and they arrange promo for those. 1 Quote
Shamrock_1982 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Less than 2 months till she's here!!! Quote
mirage Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Yeah bizarre how time flies!!Still feel like last week her tour in 2016! I get that they take time with her new record,but promotion wise it was better to release it now.We will see what they will do next year. 1 Quote
angelil78 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 I think she could still do a lot of TV shows/interviews in UK without promoting anything. The TV shows will do anything to get the views. And they know since she sold out the shows in UK quickly that they will get a lot of viewing. And if she is performing on tv, she will most likely perform some of her popular songs that the general audience knows. Quote
Bruno Portugal Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Soon she'll be in the UK... Can you imagine Celine knocking on Adele's door? Will she secretly record some new material with some British artist while being there? Quote My Webpage >>> TRIBUTE TO CELINE DION
stevo Posted April 24, 2017 Author Posted April 24, 2017 I'm pretty sure we'll see her raising her profile somehow somewhere in he UK 1 Quote
Javito Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Sony have nothing to do with Vegas shows or tours... only singles/albums/music videos and they arrange promo for those. Which means they've been pretty idle in the last 3 years, particularly during the (nonexistent) promotion of the EUS album right? Couldn't say that they have had a pile of work on their table with Céline lately Quote "Hush, now... I see a light in the sky"
Shamrock_1982 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 It'll be down to the promoters or herself/management to sort something out. The last tour I think she only done radio 2 and This Morning. Quote
isurrender Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 I think she won't do nothing. It's a heavy schedule she has. And the ones who want her to do a lot of stuff will be the ones who will complain when she ends the tour with no voice. Plus there's absolutely no need to book slots on TV shows for this year if she has to do them again when the album's out. 2 Quote

Shamrock_1982 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Yeah in Wembley stadium and she said recently that she hates touring and this might be it for a while as far as touring goes. And as far as I'm aware Celine has never seen her live and it's only a short car journey from her hotel, so I reckon chances are high C will attend! 3 Quote
Javito Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Which hotel is she staying in London? Quote "Hush, now... I see a light in the sky"
celine4evauk Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 Which hotel is she staying in London? She usually stays at The Dorchester 2 Quote

Shamrock_1982 Posted April 24, 2017 Posted April 24, 2017 End of June, start of July. I worked it on it that Celine could only attend one of those shows due to her having her own shows around those dates. Quote
