jpatdeleon09 Posted February 7, 2020 at 01:27 PM Posted February 7, 2020 at 01:27 PM (edited) Does anyone know exactly what she is gesturing when she rolls her wrist and makes a fist? She does this often and it is clearly a signal to someone.. for example, just before the last note in LCMM. But she’s been doing it for years and at different points in lots of different songs. Third clip in this link:https://www.instagram.com/p/B8QuLnslfer/?igshid=16j9i2hav7rnc I think it’s just a gesture that the song is about to end and will do the final showoff belting high notes even though scott and the band knows it already lol Edited February 7, 2020 at 01:27 PM by jpatdeleon09 Quote

MLowery855 Posted February 7, 2020 at 01:42 PM Posted February 7, 2020 at 01:42 PM in WDMHBN she did it too, right before the last verse which is live. I thought to give a signal to the sound director to turn the playback off. But here in LCMM I don't have a clue why she does it Yes WDMHBN is the first time I noticed it. I thought for sure it has to do with playback. It’s possible it is sound/mic related. I don’t believe it is just some random thing. 1 Quote Celine in Las Vegas, CWT in Atlanta, Louisville, Jacksonville, Charlotte, Raleigh - 55 shows attended Show #56 & #57 - Paris - 9/12/2026 & 5/15/2027

Céline RO Posted February 7, 2020 at 04:10 PM Posted February 7, 2020 at 04:10 PM I first noticed the gesture before the end of “All by Myself” a few years ago and I guess it was because she kept changing/adding adlibs, making it hard to tell when she wanted to end so the band would keep repeating the ending of the song until she signaled. I guess it’s the same for LCMM which has also been heavily modified throughout the years. 2 Quote The best is yet to come...
kathyc25 Posted February 7, 2020 at 04:36 PM Posted February 7, 2020 at 04:36 PM Possibly just her imitating conductors who flourish their wrist to indicate the song is getting wrapped up It's mostly this. If you listen closely to the horn section right before, she uses this gesture to stop them. Its a typical gesture used in conducting a band or orchestra. I went to college for music and this was used all the time during band and choir rehearsal. 2 Quote Music Is Life...Live ItYou are the music while the music lasts. ~T.S.

jpatdeleon09 Posted February 7, 2020 at 05:55 PM Posted February 7, 2020 at 05:55 PM (edited) There is also one gesture that she’s doing. The Thumbs up and thumbs down on microphone. Mostly, it’s always thumbs up. What does it mean? Does it mean she wanted her mic volume to increase? Edited February 7, 2020 at 05:56 PM by jpatdeleon09 Quote

homerton Posted February 7, 2020 at 09:00 PM Posted February 7, 2020 at 09:00 PM The wig isn’t great although I like the style. Suits her. I always worry about the large amount of hair missing at the top of her forehead x Quote
mirage Posted February 7, 2020 at 09:40 PM Posted February 7, 2020 at 09:40 PM Oooh yesss!!! I thought she would do that with this tour, but we also thought we would get a creative setlist haha. A few hair changes like in AND would be fun I think she should go full out Cher mode and switch to several different wigs throughout the tour. It’s nothing to be ashamed of. Quote
SantiagoColorado Posted February 7, 2020 at 10:15 PM Posted February 7, 2020 at 10:15 PM That's usually for the volume in her ear monitors. I never understood the important of the ear monitors until the show in san antonio, I was trying to sing along, but I was always out of key because I couldn't listen to myself. Quote

I’m sure that Michel talks to her through them from backstage as well.

stone Posted February 8, 2020 at 03:52 AM Posted February 8, 2020 at 03:52 AM I always thought it was her ear monitors being too high or too low, and then another signal with her thumb is to turn her mic higher and lower. Also did anyone notice she holds the note at the of TTWII at the wrong part? She's been getting it right the past month when it goes up at the key change for the final chorus. It's funny that she always messes it up. LOL Quote

I first noticed that in late 2015, I'd say she started doing that after saying I think you better close it when singing Purple Rain in Vegas.

Celine Fan 77 Posted February 8, 2020 at 07:41 PM Posted February 8, 2020 at 07:41 PM Last night I watched the 'Through The Eyes Of The World' documentary for the first time in a long while. I had forgotten how spectacular that documentary is, I so wish Céline's team would do something like that for this tour. Unfortunately Céline seems to have stopped working with Julie Snyder's company since René's passing... 3 Quote Tournée Européenne in Paris (December 1, 2013)Céline Dion Live 2016 in Antwerp (June 20, 2016)Céline Dion Live 2017 in Birmingham (July 27, 2017)
