Random news, thoughts and common questions about Celine (closed)


Recommended Posts

I remember reading something like one of his marriages wasn't in a church, which makes it almost not count in the eyes of the church, and the other one, he had to apply for an annulment, once they learned he couldn't remarry I'm a church. It was done pretty swiftly, which would suggest that his ex-wife was happy to go along with whatever he put down on the paperwork (his first wife I think). There are many different grounds for an annulment, so who knows what he wrote to sway the paper work but he got it, making him able to marry Céline in a catholic church.

 

Yes, this is it. As he was married once in church, he had to ask for an annulment, which he did in order to remarry Celine in church. I also read it somewhere but can't remember.

My opinion is, the same as for nationalities or other paper formailities, the more famous you are, the quicker it goes... I don't think it is that easy to do for a "normal" person...

Yup you are correct. I was going to write something like that myself.

I usually cook a different dessert each Sunday afternoon but I've decided to insert a bit of Céline this week :P

 

I was adding Spanish subtitles to a French interview she did back in 1994 for my YouTube channel and she started to talk about traditional Quebec food, so it gave me an idea: I'll try my version of a poutine, I'll keep you guys informed on how it results :laugh:

 

If there are no english subtitles available for the videos you are translating, can you make them or is it too much to ask? :blush:

i.m still curious about the result... :giggle: you have to have the good potatoes too, and ideally , you do your own sauce with a good base. Not easy to do the perfect poutine.

Yes my friend, I'm afraid that would be too much work for only one person. Thank God we have Condor for that. ^_^

Yeah, it's definitely going to be a Spanish version of the poutine, instead of the original one, of that I'm pretty sure. You better not get too close to my kitchen on Sunday afternoon for your own security :laugh:

Yes. Celine said that she sleeps with her kids. Celine has said this many times, most recently in her new interview that airs today. In one of the previews from the interview on instagram, she says that she has a huge bed and that Nelson and Eddy sleep with her. Celine was saying how it is helping her cope with the loneliness that comes with losing her husband and that her children are really helping her to get through it.

You mean in the video where she was holding the big red heart?

I think that's the room Rene stayed in before he passed away. It seems they are remaining that room as a room to remember Rene. Celine sleeps in another bedroom, that's the impression I got.

Really random, but we were talking about divorce today at work and all of a sudden I started wondering: How come Céline & René were able to get married in church, as René had been married before? Thought that wasn't possible as a Catholic? Or did he not marry before the Church the first two times? Does anyone know?

I remember reading something like one of his marriages wasn't in a church, which makes it almost not count in the eyes of the church, and the other one, he had to apply for an annulment, once they learned he couldn't remarry I'm a church. It was done pretty swiftly, which would suggest that his ex-wife was happy to go along with whatever he put down on the paperwork (his first wife I think). There are many different grounds for an annulment, so who knows what he wrote to sway the paper work but he got it, making him able to marry Céline in a catholic church.

 

We were right about this: I found the confirmation in the official Celine biography by Georges-Hébert Germain.

At the beginning of chapter 32 "Le conte de fées" it says this:

 

"Quand Céline et René eurent annoncé qu'ils voulaient se marier à l'église, il y eut beaucoup de discussions dans les chaumières et les médias du Québec. Angélil, deux fois divorcé, pouvait-il se marier à l'église? Marié devant Dieu et les hommes à Denise Duquette en 1967, il avait obtenu un divorce civil. Il avait ensuite épousé civilement Anne-Renée, dont il avait également divorcé.

René avait entrepris des démarches pour obtenir l'annulation de son premier mariage. Le tribunal ecclésiastique le lui accorda. Il pouvait donc se marier à l'église. Mais on protestait. On disait qu'il jouissait, Céline et lui, d'un traitement de faveur, parce qu'ils étaient riches et célèbres ou que Céline avait chanté devant le pape.

Pourtant, bien d'autres avant eux, dans le monde du show-business ou ailleurs, avaient obtenu ce genre d'annulation. Quelques mois plut tôt, par exemple, les juges ecclésiastiques du tribunal de la rote avaient prononcé l'annulation du mariage de Caroline de Monaco et de Philippe Junot. En fait, les frais encourus pour une annulation sont infiniment moins élevés que ceux qu'exige un avocat pour un divorce."

Translation:

 

"When Céline and René announced that they wanted to marry in church, there was a lot of talk in the cottages and in the Quebec media. Can Angelil, twice divorced, marry in church? He married before God and men to Denise Duquette in 1967, he had obtained a civil divorce. He then (civil) married Anne-Renée, whom he had also divorced.

René had taken steps to obtain the annulment of his first marriage. The ecclesiastical tribunal granted it to him. He could marry in church. But we protested. It was said that Celine and he enjoyed a special treatment, because they were rich and famous, or because Celine had sung for the pope.

Yet many others before them, in the show business world or elsewhere, had obtained this kind of cancellation. A few months earlier, for example, the ecclesiastical judges of the tribunal de la rote had pronounced the annulment of the marriage of Caroline de Monaco and Philippe Junot. In fact, the costs incurred for a cancellation are infinitely less than those required by a lawyer for a divorce. "

Another interview. It's the Sun, so I am not sure how credible it is. She doesn't really say much that she hasn't said before, but there is the detail about her cutting out the heart on the teddy bear that Rene gave her. I really do think that Celine might not marry again..

Apparently some disgruntled voters actually cast their ballots for Celine in the French presidential elections. :sofunny:

I mean, who needs qualifications these days? She should, like, totally run for office. She's so darn good a kissing strangers' babies, she'd be a shoo-in! :giggle:

I was thinking about this Sun interview last week, how they said it was the first tour since René passed away.

Well we all know it's the second tour she's doing without René. It made me think how America and UK are often ignorant on what is happening outside the English speaking world.

 

If it isn't happening in America or UK, it's not happening at all.

Like how foreign movies/TV are rarely shown and foreign language music doesn't sell well.

 

I'm not saying everyone in the English speaking countries are like that, not at all. I'm mainly speaking about the media, how they act.

 

But of course there is always an exception , like last year in NYC where they did mention she was releasing a french CD.

 

Many times I think the media forgets or ignores that Céline has a huge career in French. And that her French albums actually are selling well.
