Celine and Rene were nervous when announcing their relationship because they were not sure how people would react. It seems like most people didn't mind at all. My question is though, do you think some people (however few) did mind and changed their view of Celine?

It's been 36 years today since Céline officially started her career when she appeared on Michel Jasmin's show.

I really dont think that people minded because it was so obvious that they were

In love and really did care for each other

That everyone kind of embraced them. Of course there are always those that think in a diferentes way, but I believe very few.

Holy s***!!! How cool is this?!

 

So next Saturday is Canada Day, and given that it's the big 150, there's been all sorts of press about the history of Confederation, including this article in Maclean's called Great-great-great-great gaughters of the Confederation.

And guess what, one of those profiled is Scott Price's daughter! Which means, either he (or her mom) are direct descendants of one of Canada's founding fathers!

 

Here's an excerpt of the article (with plenty of Celine content).

 

Meet the great-great-great-great-granddaughters of Confederation

 

From a teen with a Céline Dion connection to a skiing daredevil, Meagan Campbell meets the descendants of Canada’s founders

The fan making Sir Charles Tupper big in Vegas

 

Maya Price is a 14-year-old with connections to Hollywood and historical heroes. Not only is she the great-great-great-great-great granddaughter of Sir Charles Tupper, former prime minister and founding father of Canada, but she is also the daughter of Céline Dion’s music director.

Once, in 2016, Price flew on Dion’s private plane, where she ate truffles and watermelon while being shuttled from a concert in Quebec City to her hometown of Montreal. Twice before that, Price hung out with the singer on the job, backstage at a show in Las Vegas and in her recording studio in Montreal. “She was kind of, like, hyped,” Price says of Dion’s performance adrenalin in Vegas. So was the tween, who was 12 at the time, and got a tour of Dion’s wardrobe (she refrained from touching the rows of silver pumps). In the recording studio, the girl was asked for advice on a rendition of Recovering. “I was kind of, like, flattered,” says Price.

Maya’s father, Scott Price, arranges the music for Dion’s 29-part orchestra, conducting 15 strings, five brass instruments and three backup singers, while playing piano himself. “We did Jimmy Fallon. We did Ellen DeGeneres. All those things are cool,” says Scott, a graduate of the Royal Conservatory in Toronto who got the job with Dion in 2015 after composing for artists and television shows including Just for Laughs Gags. He also now directs the music for some Cirque du Soleil performances.

 

More bragging rights hang in Maya’s grandmother’s house: a photo of Tupper, who Maya recently discovered is her ancestor. “It’s as cool as my dad with Céline,” she says. Tupper flew on no private jet, signed no deals with the Bee Gees and never made it on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, but as premier of Nova Scotia, he launched the construction of the province’s railways, signed Confederation documents for Nova Scotia, served as prime minister for 10 weeks (before his Conservative party was voted out) subsidized public schools and protected French-language rights.

Maya’s Canadianness goes further. Her toy poodle is named Grizzly; she strictly distinguishes herself from Americans (“A lot of my friends are, like, traumatized by Trump”), and she points out, “I’m pretty girly, but I like to chill at a cottage.” Girly, surely: Price follows makeup artists on YouTube and carries a Louis Vuitton wallet; she also gets monthly manicures. “My nails are a bit tired of nail polish,” she says, explaining that she currently opts for fake acrylics.

Maya has pricey tastes. A private trainer visits her at her condo building in Montreal, and on a recent trip to Vegas, she dined on Kobe beef and crispy rice with tuna in the same restaurant as Miley Cyrus. Price has been to Florida and Milan. She’s done Corsica, London and Tokyo, where one of her two older sisters was working as a model. Back home, a typical day includes analyzing endoplasmic reticula at her private school and doing her custom training regime at her gym while singing along to OMG by Arash featuring Snoop Dogg.

She figures her destiny might be to study at McGill University like her sisters, aged 21 and 22, then get into entertainment law, medicine or music. She also likes math.

 

Her grandfather, “great” five times over, is also framed in a photo above her father’s piano, but the family focuses on its other Canadian icon. “Céline is my day-to-day existence,” says Scott, who says her celebrity is spreading. “It’s all over the bloody world. She’s like pop-music royalty.” Meanwhile, “Sir Charles Tupper is not as in-your-face all the time.”

Well, she already won an Oscar doing Piaf, maybe one day she can do the same for Dion

A profile on the milliner behind that white Oscars fedora - http://coveteur.com/...ones-interview/

 

"Some of his favorite clients over the years:

“Boy George years and years ago. Or Dita Von Teese. Or Anna Piaggi. Or Céline Dion, Queen of Canada! I haven’t worked with her directly, but I did hats for her when I was at Dior. The famous white fedora when she wore [it] with that suit back-to-front at the Oscars, that was my white fedora! The hat that scandalized a nation [laughs]. She got such bad press for that.”

More Canada Day coverage - http://winnipeg.ctvnews.ca/canada-hard-to-define-but-easy-to-celebrate-poll-suggests-1.3475563

 

"Participants were asked to choose which living or dead Canadian they'd most like to have dinner with, and the top choice -- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau -- earned just eight per cent of votes.[...] Trudeau's eight per cent support from respondents was followed by Quebecois singer Celine Dion, who secured five per cent of respondents' support."

That pic has made the rounds before...it's not Celine unfortunately.

So I came across this today.

 

http://friendsofmari...45#.WVLCPVLJI_U

 

It's a link to some Mariah Carey forum, and it's their thread dedicated to Celine. For some reason the thread is called Water And A Flame. Maybe they created it back when Loved Me Back To Life was called Wanter and a Flame. Anyway, I got curious to see what Lambs really thinks about Celine (and us).

 

Some of them are hardcore Mariah fans so they just hate on Celine no matter what, others are quite open minded. For some reason some of them refer to Celine as "Saline".

 

It really seems to annoy fans that Celine does better than Mariah though, and they keep hating on Celine for lip-synching. They say that Celine is perfect at lipping, and Mariah sucks at it. Well, she does. At least if you're gonna do it, make it believable. Celine is more successful than Mariah at this point and has been for a while, and still keeps going and some of them talk about that and wants Mariah to do the same.

 

Anyway, I'm just curious to see what you guys think of what they're saying.

[incognito]

Celine is so far above her now in legend status and she can still provide the receipts. it is unfair to Mariah to compare them or care what her lambs think. I don't dislike Mariah and she was great through to 2005 imo.

Some Mariah's fan are completly in denial, they would so wish that Mariah would still be able to sing. Would be good for them to hear the reason and think twice.

"She was, like, "Let's talk about love," and Earth was, like, "Let's." "

 

Lmao I love this quote!

Except of course for "Glitter" and "Charmbracelet." And then "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel" had some redeeming and mature qualities. The latter is the direction she should have continued with.

I agree, I think they hate Celine even more because she is everything they want Mariah to be. Successfully I mean, they probably don't want Mariah's awful personality to change though. What "quality" does Mariah have that makes people like someone who behaves so obnoxiously? Let's be honest, Mariah, is a selfish, stuck up B who blames everyone else for her own mistakes, and shades other celebrities at almost every opportunity. Who can actually adore someone who is so continuously awful to others?

I read something a few days ago about MC playing herself in a film but was edited out cos she was too diva ish. Anyone else hear about it? Can't remember the film, but she was hired to sing a certain song, turned up several hours late, then said she didn't want to do that particular song! Lol

 

But definitely agree with you all - they're only jealous of the facts that Celine has maintained her voice really well and is also a really lovely down to earth person despite her success! Joe McElderry after the Leeds show tweeted about how humbled she was with the audience reaction to her etc
