CelinesDIVO5 Posted December 20, 2023 at 08:40 PM Posted December 20, 2023 at 08:40 PM I don’t speak French, but for what I can tell from others fans in here and on Twitter, her sister not even said what the media is putting out. She didn’t said Celine’s situation was worsening, she was generally talking about a disease that makes you lose muscle control. But some news outlet translated badly and it was replicated by others. And the fact that some of the media contacted her team and got a “no comment” response, really puts fire on the whole thing. It’s complicated cause I don’t want to say Celine is in anyway obligated to give us information about her health, but then again, if the rumors (can we call that? expectations, maybe?) of her coming back next year are true, I see no reason why they can’t just let us know everything is fine. It’s confusing. Claudette should just keep her mouth shut if all she has to say is some generic bullsh*t that only adds speculation. She’s a media whore, who has been unsolicitedly opening her mouth on behalf of Celine for decades. I don’t think Celine’s team has physically given a “no comment” response. They just haven’t returned communication yet. Very different things. 5 Quote https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PL54qnRGM2gMatthew Charles - "Fix You" - Live at The Stonewall InnStonewall Sensation - Season 15Originally written and performed by Coldplay

It’s confusing. The management sucks. I can understand them not wanting to respond to claims, however the claims are coming from her sister… that warrants a response… it doesn’t even have to be a detailed one, they could just say, “Celine is still working on her health and is making progress but we opt to not give further details at this time”. Rene would’ve known how to handle a situation like this, but now it’s a bunch of bafoons running the show. Edited December 20, 2023 at 09:15 PM by Nmj 2 Quote
stevo Posted December 20, 2023 at 09:33 PM Posted December 20, 2023 at 09:33 PM It’s the fact that her demise is being so broadly reported, across so many media outlets - if it is not true, that she has lost complete control of her muscles, her team have a duty to correct the false claims 1 Quote
incognito Posted December 20, 2023 at 09:41 PM Posted December 20, 2023 at 09:41 PM Well if her manager is Dave he has held fans in contempt for decades so I’m not surprised he doesn’t think advising for a response is warranted. Literally told Céline that the reason fans care about her hair so much is she’s the only stability in our lives. Quote

Literally told Céline that the reason fans care about her hair so much is she’s the only stability in our lives. If that’s the case, it’s probably why that bun was worn by her for so long. She’s on strict orders from Dave to give us t stability. 1 Quote
ryba Posted December 20, 2023 at 09:51 PM Posted December 20, 2023 at 09:51 PM (edited) It’s all over the German media too. All these articles make it sound like she will never be able to get back to normal again. It’s awful Edited December 20, 2023 at 09:51 PM by ryba Quote

Bruno Portugal Posted December 20, 2023 at 10:25 PM Posted December 20, 2023 at 10:25 PM In Portugal this “news” is also everywhere. 😔 Quote My Webpage >>> TRIBUTE TO CELINE DION
tshlw Posted December 20, 2023 at 10:35 PM Posted December 20, 2023 at 10:35 PM It is everywhere. My mom even recorded Inside Edition that had a segment on it for me. I had to explain that it is not true and they are taking things out of context. It really is insane how much traction this is getting. Quote 'I am, in life and death, the woman of only one man.'

No1IrishFan Posted December 20, 2023 at 10:37 PM Posted December 20, 2023 at 10:37 PM I’ve told a few people it isn’t true but they think I’m in denial and refuse to accept the truth. It’s so frustrating. I don’t plan on correcting anyone again if Celine’s team can’t be arsed doing it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote

chocolatechip15 Posted December 21, 2023 at 12:23 AM Posted December 21, 2023 at 12:23 AM I think this group is WAY too hard on Claudette. She’s a minor celebrity in Quebec in her own right (obviously extremely minor compared to Celine), but she does have a career. She performs, and she needs to do promotion, which necessarily involves contact with the media. And of course every journalist asks her about Celine - which really must be maddening, if she’s trying to talk about her own work - but she always answers graciously, never gives away anything super private. If she were to answer questions with “sorry no comment” or “I can’t talk about that,” it would be worse, and anyway that’s not the Dions’ style. Claudette is caught between a rock and a hard place in this. And it’s even worse with the mistranslations and clickbait headlines. None of us have any idea what their sibling relationship is like and I think it’s best to stop speculating. 5 Quote
PuraVida Posted December 21, 2023 at 12:47 AM Posted December 21, 2023 at 12:47 AM (edited) I just checked the original phrase « Elle travaille fort, mais elle n’a pas le contrôle de ses muscles. Ce qui me fait de la peine, c’est qu’elle a toujours été disciplinée »,yeah , there is a difference betweende tous ses muscles and ses muscles looks like someone translated it that way (intentionally or accidentally) and it snowballed from there.... That is what they did last time too…intentionally mistranslated her and people thought no medication was working or whatever it was. The media does not €do their job. It sucks being a fan with this type of sinister stuff going on Edited December 21, 2023 at 12:49 AM by PuraVida Quote

I agree it’s hard to stay quiet if an interviewer asks her. However, how hard is it to just stay directly to the point and say something like “Celine is so strong, she’s a champion and is working hard at getting to 100%, but this story is hers to tell when she’s ready.” 4 Quote

No matter how well-intentioned Claudette may be, if the person of topic herself isn't speaking about her own illness, maybe take a hint she doesn't want it discussed or speculated on? The above is the perfect reply, concerned but respectful. Well if her manager is Dave he has held fans in contempt for decades so I'm not surprised he doesn't think advising for a response is warranted. Literally told Céline that the reason fans care about her hair so much is she's the only stability in our lives.lmao.. I'm not familiar with her career that far back, aside from this hair comment (which I'll give the benefit of the doubt is misinterpreted from a personality maintaining a recognizable public image lol) how else has he shown contempt for fans for decades? Rene would've known how to handle a situation like this, but now it's a bunch of bafoons running the show.I may be be wrong, but even when René was around, their approach was to leave Claudette to her own devices, going by the past mentions that Claudette has been doing this stunt forever for the attention. Maybe TC is worried (then and now) that if she's explicitly told to zip it, Claudette will run to the press to cry about being told to shut up and is being exiled from Céline's life, plus all the imagined melodrama of a family feud Quote

PuraVida Posted December 21, 2023 at 09:44 AM Posted December 21, 2023 at 09:44 AM Remember when Claudette gave all those tears about the Aline movie, along with their brother. iirc, Valerie said sod it, i’m not meeting with them then Quote
souriredezora Posted December 21, 2023 at 01:20 PM Posted December 21, 2023 at 01:20 PM She clearly has no PR people????? Or minimal I mean how else do you explain the management of her Social Media with literally millions of followers and the rehashed s*** they spew at us. Whitney Houston is dead and her team gives more update and material.maybe when Celine layed off a bunch of people recently she also reduced amount of her team?.... maybe she pays them less now and they don't work that hard ?

jpatdeleon09 Posted December 21, 2023 at 01:46 PM Posted December 21, 2023 at 01:46 PM (edited) I think this will only stop if Celine will make an update video or make another public appearance. Btw, did she went to Adele’s show? Edited December 21, 2023 at 01:48 PM by jpatdeleon09 Quote

Boy do I hope I'm wrong, but just a sinking gut feeling nothing is coming in 2023 from her or the team.... We will get a message don't worry about that. We will get a message saying that she missed us, telling us to take good care of our health, to stay safe, love one another, have a great holiday and that she hopes to see us soon, kisses. But I don't understand why so much fuss about this 'news'? Isn't her syndrome exactly that anyway? Random muscles' spasms that she can't control? She herself told us a year ago that she isn't able to control her muscles and she works very hard to manage her SPS, so why Claudette saying pretty much the same thing became so newsworthy? And what Celine or her team is supposed to respond to that? They already told us. But truth is that nobody cares about the good news, they all want the schocking value, the drama, the demise and the horrific stories. If news outlets actually cared about her health, we would have had articles showing her dancing at Katy Perry's show. In the end, no matter what she says, as long as she doesn't perform, give interviews, go outside, or post fun stuff on social media, people will stick to the narrative they want and the narrative that sells the most. maybe when Celine layed off a bunch of people recently she also reduced amount of her team?.... maybe she pays them less now and they don't work that hard ? It's been this way for years. Her social media are practically non existent just like her 'team'.. 1 Quote

Can you share it? Is it subtitled into English? Quote
ryba Posted December 22, 2023 at 09:52 AM Posted December 22, 2023 at 09:52 AM (edited) It's so interesting that her dancing and the Katy Perry show didn't catch any attention from the media at all. And now everybody believes this Claudette stuff... Edited December 22, 2023 at 09:52 AM by ryba 2 Quote
