The Aftermath: Stylist Law Roach on Creating Celine Dion’s BBMAs Moment

"You cannot have a bad day around Celine Dion. It’s impossible."

 

Celebrity stylist Law Roach first met Celine Dion at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards. A fan of her music, he went to her dressing room postshow and made quite the impression — Dion called him the next day to ask if he would travel to Paris to be with her for a month. A month turned into a year and things came full circle on Sunday, when Roach styled Dion for this year’s awards show.

 

Dion delivered an emotionally charged performance of “My Heart Will Go On” in honor of the 20th anniversary of the film “Titanic.” Standing underneath a giant chandelier, the songstress wore a white gown by Stéphane Rolland that featured dramatic shoulders and a plunging neckline.

 

“If someone asked me if there was a dress that embodied who Celine was, it would have to be that dress,” shares Roach. “Not only was it elegant, but it was so much drama. I knew in my heart of hearts that that would be the dress.”

 

Roach reveals that he reached out to Rolland on a whim after running into some difficulty with designers due to the Cannes Film Festival. Rolland agreed to send Roach two dresses, and Roach brought about 13 others with him to his fitting with Dion.

 

“What I did was I kind of hid [the dress] from her for a while,” he says. “We went through five or six dresses and then I pulled it out and I saw her eyes get big. She was like, ‘What is that?’ She tried it on and she didn’t want to take it off. I had already seen a mockup of what the stage would look like and I was just like, ‘God sent me this dress because this woman is supposed to look like an angel under these lights.’ And that’s exactly what happened.”

 

Roach, who also doubles as a judge on VH1’s “America’s Next Top Model” reboot, calls Dion’s performance “breathtaking” and says it brought both male and female audience members to tears. “I cried,” he admits. “When we were walking backstage, people were crying — and it wasn’t just girls. It was grown men wiping away that shameful tear. There was so much power and love in that room. It was spectacular.”

 

Roach says Dion is “the epitome of what a diva is supposed to be: someone who carries herself with elegance and class.”

 

“She reminds me of the way women used to be,” he continues. “When she meets people, she speaks to everyone in the room and when she leaves, she says ‘thank you’ and shakes everyone’s hand. Even at her level, she doesn’t feel like it’s a privilege for people to meet her, she still feels that it’s a privilege for her to meet people. You cannot have a bad day around Celine Dion. It’s impossible.”

Does anybody know where this is from? Do we have a full video?

 

[Shaun]

During the red carpet show before going to commercials they showed singers / bands talking about why the Billboard Awards are important to them. The picture above is a screenshot from Celine's video. From memory she said something like "I think Billboard is the bible of the industry. Trusted and true."

Celine's performance on the news on national TV here in Spain

[Javito]

And with the classic logo on the screen!!! Now I'm impressed with the Spanish TV. Utterly impressed. We won't see a moment like this again in another 20 years probably

 

Edit: only problem is that the host said "20 years after its release Celine Dion performed again the Titanic theme song", as if she hadn't sung the precious in all these 20 years since then... (Barely! )

 

That shows evidence of how badly Spain needs to catch up on her

If you guys want a real reaction check this guy out. He's great!

Yeah this guy is great! Honest reactions, unbiased.

And it's also the beautiful version of the logo!

Not the rough one the team is using for the Live 2017 promo...

Look up Celine saying Hannah Montana. This is from when they kept asking her questions about Miley. She stated that, " 'Annah Montana got tired of being 'Annah Montana" ect... In other words, she was dropping the "H".

[mirage]

Most newsoutlets make it seem that she never sang the song since 1997 haha, if they only knew...

LOL what'shisface? How blatantly disrespectful. There's a difference between having a stark difference of opinion vs having a disconnect with reality. Pfft she's having a fashion renaissance whether you like it or not.

You must be practicing vocabulary from PSYC 101. Cute. So phuking cute.

[agentwigs]

Is there a decent download of the performance? I still haven't seen it in HD. The 700mb part one file didn't work for me, tried it twice. 😣

[Del]

Yeah this guy is great! Honest reactions, unbiased.

I had to have a chuckle when he talked about not needing stripping and booty shaking as part of a performance.

[Del]

His reactions are so forced and fake! Well, I hate reaction videos in general, as I find them pointless and narcissistic, but this particular one was so cringe-worthy.

Glad to see I was not the only one. Why I watched the entire video I have no idea, but my first thought was wtf is this.

"Disconnect with reality" is not psychology-specific, it's a pretty generic term. Your attempt at condescension failed, and you've revealed yourself to be a massive cunt.

[I Drove All Night!]

Am I wrong, or was she wearing her wedding ring? you know the very first one she got from Rene?

 

No, I thought it might have been the cushion cut diamond she got from him around 2007. But turns out they were both new Harry Kotlar rings (I'm assuming on loan, but who knows):

I've never claimed to be anything else. A massive one at that!

how come you can't say sh.t but cunt is ok?

[Your_Su_Phu]

Maybe the mods didn't bother banning the latter word since they assumed Celine fans were too delicate to use it

Anyway, expecting my tempban any minute now

Mariah Carey... and many others ¨Divas¨ . Just once i would like to hear Celine be a real a *CENSORED* , just for the fun of it. But it won't happen.

Good point. Not all rules make sense and even when they do, they are not necessarily followed. Human nature!

Most Celine fans - myself included - do not care about it in general.

No, it''s a pretty bad word to call a woman over here.
