Céline's 50th Birthday celebrations

[Jeanette]

So after all that build up to Celine’s 50th, it’s gone by in a wimper, apart from the fans and some media outlets. Gotta say I feel a bit cheated!! Would’ve loved for the show to have gone on, on this occasion, for sure!!

[Lotty]

Did anyone watch and register any of the tv specials in air in Canada and France??? I'd love to watch them...

No, I think it's Happy Brithday (Quebec Version)

 

"Mon Cher Céline, c'est à ton tour

de te laisser parle d'amour.."

Yes, it is! The one she sang to a fan called Céline last year in Vegas

You can listen to the full show here (thankfully, as I was at work and missed a good half hour of it!).

In addition to the above, here are more radio specials from the French CBC.

• On dira ce qu'on voudra - Great show! Includes an interesting discussion of Celines heretofore hidden feminist side, birthday wishes from Fred Pellerin, Sonia Benezra, others (30 min)
  
  • Great article discussed above: Le côté féministe caché de Céline Dion
    

  [*]Les grands entretiens- A collection of interviews from the CBC archives, dating back to early '80s. Lots of gems here, including an absolutely adorable interview with a 14-year-old Celine. She was seriously mature for her age then, really quite something to hear. Fascinating to hear hear through the years like this, especially hearing her talk about dreams at the time she ended up realizing, and on the flip side, talking about stuff like writing her own material or doing musicals / acting / dance. (1 hr)

• 2007 interview with Monique Giroux - circa D'Elles era (30 min)
  

All seriously great stuff, if you understand French.

Celine has posted a thank you message, written message that is. 😀

This made me very happy!

“Célinologists (yes, there are academics who study the phenomenon that she is)”

 

I missed my call!

Took the wrong career...

 

I hope she had a lovely day yesterday, and wasn’t worrying too much.

Thank you so much for sharing this.

 

I understand a 70%, but I loved hearing her young, warm, so natural like interviews.

I agree.....I guess many of us would like to turn our hobby into profession.

 

I would be interested to know whether the academics have the same passion and commitment as we have

 

 

 

"Many Célinologists (yes, there are academics who study the phenomenon that she is) expected her to fade from show business in widowhood. Instead, she has taken control of her career, firing her late husband’s hand-picked successor as her manager and shown herself to be as savvy a deal-maker as Mr. Angélil."

Claudette for President!

 

She should be Céline's new spokesperson!

[Dion2000]

Claudette for President!

 

She should be Céline's new spokesperson!

 

In Claudettes mind she already is...

 

Like seriously, she needs to stop

[scielle]

No, thanks.

I actually thought this was kinda cute.

 

That said, in general yeah, she needs to stop. She's the one who talks ABOUT Céline the most but probably also the one who talks WITH her the least. She needs to realize that there might be some sort of connection there...

Yeah she talks about Celine a lot, but actually says very little 🤣 Politician right there!!

Celine is obviously closest to Linda and Michel. Sometimes I miss the days when Manon was there too doing Celine’s hair.

Why? Did something really happen between Celine en Julie? I always thought those were just fan speculations?

 

And I dont think Mego blames Celine personally.

 

Both were at Rene’s funeral too

"Mon Cher Céline, c'est à ton tour

de te laisser parle d'amour.."

 

 

It looks like "Gens du pays" by Gilles Vigneault, which is considered the unofficial anthem of Québec. I said "looks like" and not "sounds like" because I cannot open the link, which seems unavailable. Can someone repost it please ?

Anything new for those of us who don’t do French?

Nah. Just common knowledge stuff. Basically a rehash of other press’ articles and her social media posts turned into (longer) sentences, and voila, a front page story!

[mirage]

 

And it's an actual job, people get paid to do this...

 

We should start our own magazine
