Céline on Billboard Music Awards - May 21st, 2017

[Xpresso]

Let's hope she doesn't sing MHWGO!! People who only associate Céline with that song will do so for another 20 years!!!

She could sing How Does a Moment or even Encore un soir (why can't Billboard highlight the success of her French album)??

Billboard Awards are meant for the music released in the last year aren't they?

[CelineDionFreak]

I just realized something! May be totally unrelated but remember EUS was released right after the BBMA's last year so maybe they're using this as a Segway into new music?

[Cafe67]

I'm so excited to see what it could be...hoping for something new from her English album. Wouldn't it be something if she did a duet with Ed Sheeran?!

[mirage]

Please no HDAMLF, that ship has sailed a long time ago...

 

She needs uptempo, fresh, sexy, powerful

Something similar of that video,

[DionFanAlways]

I think that's what it will be. Unfortunately.

I fear you are right.

I am so sorry for what I am about to say but, here goes, deep breath, I absolutely loathe this song now. No matter how she sings it I cannot listen to it. When I'm in Vegas I go numb when this is sung. I don't even stand.

 

Please do not hate me but it is nauseating to me. It's a shame that this one song is what she is known for.

 

Oh well, that's off my chest, commence the stoning...... (and no, my computer was not hacked.)

[zuv]

Omgggg again!??!

 

YAAASSSS!!!

 

After reading the thread: PLEASE NO MHWGO!

I beg they don't do that, people are just starting to realize how "cool" Celine is and how she's a living legend!! Please let's move forward!

I think you are correct, it will be MHWGO.

 

Ugh

 

Oh well I love to see her on tv so I'm going to do the positive thinking on this and still look forward to it

[Xpresso]

If she sings MHWGO (let's hope not!!), it better be a cool remix or something nobody expects from her!! Edited May 1, 2017 at 09:50 PM by Xpresso

If she sings MHWGO I will absolutely despair!

i don't think it will be it, she is not that disconnected, or i hope so. I'm sure it will an up-tempo thing, if she doesn't want to be associated with mourning her whole life. She wants to put her career back on the speedy track.

[stevo]

Erm- we all moan when she sings a cover, and now that she might perform her biggest (whether you or she likes it or not) song we're up in arms? She may not, but it is looking likely...although if the anniversary is in December, is it not a tad random to perform it now, in May?

 

This song is a classic. So many people loathe it, but many more love it. It made her a legend- it is her legacy.

I hope so. And we all know she isn't a fan of the song and she knows that die hard fans are sick of it. Even the general public were sick of the song. I just can't believe she's gonna waste airtime on that song.

Surely last year would've been the year to perform her biggest hit? The year she received the Icon Award?

 

Unless she's receiving some kind of lifetime achievement award this year I don't see how performing MHWGO is in any way relevant. Like you say it's not even the anniversary in May! I don't see many, if any, other artists being invited onto "current" awards shows to perform 20 year old hits.

No I completely agree- it seems bizarre that she would sing it now in May. I just meant that she can basically do no right in what she chooses to do haha.

 

It's intriguing. What on Earth is it going to be!?

Big article from Billboard.com but nothing revealing on the BBMA's

You're right! No matter what she does, people here will complain. The same people who complain every time she even breathes wrong.

[CelineDionFreak]

I wouldn't mind MHWGO if they tweaked something or made it a little different. Maybe different vibe, arrangement or something. They can take that song many ways!

Thanks for that- at the bottom of the page it says 'this article was written in partnership with Caesars Palace'- it does seem her performance on the 21st is likely to be solely for The Show's promotion 😟

[mirage]

Than a medley of her hits?

Or it's just a contest as a promotion, with no tie to her performance. Just the mere fact that she's going to be there.

A big name who passed away last year? Anyone Celine could be paying tribute to?

 

If there's a new single, though, I hope her voice is much better than on Recovering, Winter Song or HDAMLF.

 

Great news that she will be there, but the appearance will soon be forgotten. Nobody will give Celine a chance with a new single. "Shape Of You" sounds a lot like "Eyes On Me" and nobody cared about that song only because it was sung by Celine. After appearances like this which may involve some other appearances and being talked about in the media as a side effect, she should announce tour dates in the rest of the USA and English-speaking Canada, but that's not going to happen anytime soon.

Ok they said she would do something special, no way that's gonna be MHWGO, Céline knows that it's not special. She sings that song 4 times a week when in Las Vegas

[Hilda]

hahaha - of course it will be a new single - has to be

[Del]

This was exciting news to see this afternoon. I am looking forward for to seeing what she has prepared for us. While I want to be beyond excited for this, I am holding back as I don't want to be carried away with ideas and then be disappointed. One thing for sure is that I will be watching!

[Javito]

Please let it be a NEW performance of her, and coming from her. Not anymore tributes, hommages, renditions to others etc. Enough of that. And I said ENOUGH lol.

 

I'm hoping for something BIG and a mixture between her EPIC performance of "The Best" in 2007 combined with dancers in "RDMH" in the CBS TV special in 2007. That would be a show-stopper.

 

And no more drama performances alas The Show Must Go On. Been there, done that Céline!

[Javito]

Help me understand this. Would she release a single without an album?

 

We've seen stranger things here, like doing a tour without any new album released :whistling:

I think I've just read the most coherent post of yours in recent history lol

 

You're SO very right with all you said... Another f****** performance of MHWGO or any of her classic songs is the least she needs right now to promote her music career in such BIG awards :pinch: And the umpteenth MISSED opportunity to add to the already long list of missed opportunities

[chocolatechip15]

Oh god! Please not the 20th anniversary of MHWGO...... Please NOOOOOO! I'm jumping!

 

"You jump, I jump, Jack" . . . maybe it will to celebrate a special movie-dialogue re-release of MHWGO
