Or maybe I see the combined figure cause I have linked my FB to my IG? If yours are not linked, maybe that's it! Just guessing here! 1 Quote

Or am I missing something?? It even was on Access Limite. The info is correct but the Jimmy they tagged is wrong. They tagged a different Jimmy instead because they wrote “@Jimmy Fallon”, hence it tagged an account with the username @jimmy, not @jimmyfallon. Quote

scarletpimpernel Posted February 22, 2026 at 06:23 AM Posted February 22, 2026 at 06:23 AM I feel like they keep adding throw back pics and stories about her old well known songs amongst the new ones to fill in a few gaps for younger fans, might be annoying for older fans but while the new content goes viral, those new fans can start to piece together her past and start appreciating the full picture, or encourage them to explore the internet of her past successes etc 3 1 Quote

sarit_celine Posted February 22, 2026 at 10:21 AM Author Posted February 22, 2026 at 10:21 AM We don't know if Celine will be able to go on tour so they know the young audience is all over the social media it's a wise move to target this specific audience. IF and when she will go on and so something with singing they will change their plans.

mirage Posted February 22, 2026 at 10:22 AM Posted February 22, 2026 at 10:22 AM (edited) I hope the team will learn something from this. I think that if they recorded her stories about her songs in this kind of way it would gain much more audience. Her static videos don't do her justice. Those are just for the serious messages. Don't want to get my hopes up, but all this effort must lead to something amazing for us fans won't you think? Can't imagine all this for another year of career silence.

If she will do here and there live performances from her home, I will take that with two hands. So no clue about the tour thing but I find it so very hard to believe there won't be anything new regarding her music career this year. Her team caused us trauma that shortly after the olympics ceremony they did nothing and lost all the momentum. Fingers crossed they will go in the right way. 1 Quote "Needed in the chaos and confusion, from the plains to City HallNeeded where the proud who walk the wire are set to fall"

Would be interesting to see if a new chapter opened up, with her doing live shows again, would the audience be a bit different...would there be a bunch of super excited new younger fans( amongst the super excited old fans 😄) that have got to know her since the viral tiktoks 1 Quote

It’s been improving since they started this new approach but they still need work. Yeah, on the one hand I understand, on the other hand I'm like...so she posted a quick reaction video to MHWGO and that's all it took for you to follow her? But I get that it indicates a new, more direct approach to reaching the fans in a way. And yes, more/better work can be done. Some firm is probably getting paid huge bucks for something this shift - one which, while an improvement, isn't exactly revolutionary. But hey, at the end of the day I'm a basic fan who loves to see her followers and views go up 😅 Edited February 22, 2026 at 09:11 PM by PuraVida Quote

I caught myself replaying it way more times than the previous one - content is faster, Celine talks like 5 times and each time she is giving something be it funny shade towards Kate Winslet, or the self-reflection or the harmonizing, or praising the young artist. I find it better paced and more interesting! 3 Quote

From a marketing or PR standpoint, might've been nice to have this team in place before her documentary rollout or prior to the Olympics. Quote
LukeD Posted February 22, 2026 at 09:43 PM Posted February 22, 2026 at 09:43 PM (edited) This makes me so excited about her upcoming projects! My wish for her next English album is for Celine to do something completely different, both in terms of structure and content. Here is my take: 1) I would like the next studio album to be a live album containing new songs. The album is to be recorded in front of a live, intimate audience - crowd ambience and live band energy to be part of the production. So basically a live studio album with carefully arranged performances and studio-level mixing. Something similar to the 'Primera Fila' type of industry format. 2) I would like a setlist of 14-16 songs with 3 to 4 guest singers joining Celine for 1 duet each. I'd like Celine to collaborate with artists who are either talented as musicians or singers or both and who connect with younger audiences. I could see Bruno Mars, Teddy Swims, Post Malone, Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, Charlie Puth, but also more upcoming ones like Celeste and Lauren Daigle, who have already expressed their admiration towards Celine. 3) I would like the vocals to be soft and the diction clear. There is no need for high or sustained notes - the industry has moved past this type of singing. That said, no more bedroom voice either please, to me this type of singing comes off as both forced and unoriginal. 4) I'd like the album to be rooted in AC music, but specific songs to draw from other genres. Definitely a jazz song, a motown song, maybe blues and soul. 5) I would also like to finally hear once again a wide range of musical instruments! This worked so well for 'Falling Into You', not sure why the approached was abandoned ever since. I would like to hear acoustic guitar, bass, drums, percussion, piano, even saxophone, violin and accordion. A diverse musical experience basically. I think this type of album would do wonders for Celine artistically. It ticks several unticked boxes. That said, at this stage I'd happily accept anything she has to offer!

CélineI'mAlive Posted February 22, 2026 at 10:16 PM Posted February 22, 2026 at 10:16 PM On 2/21/2026 at 1:45 AM, Nmj said: I wonder why they are waiting so long between the reaction videos… when all of the content was clearly filmed on the same day. How much do they film in the CELINE hoodie, enough content for the next 6 years??? Between the community managers and marketing, it’s a way to let the content breathe. The idea is that when a video X is released, it should be left alone for a few days so it can fully rack up likes. Once people stop giving as many likes—because mostly everyone who follows their TikTok has already seen it—the next one is posted. That’s why you don’t usually see multiple posts from Céline (nor any other artist) in a single day on any of her platforms. 1 Quote

I may be too pessimistic, but if she returns I don't think we're getting a magical change in pronunciation or an end to some of her post-2010 idiosyncratic vocal habits. Moreover, I expect she won't sound much different than she did on the Courage album, even though she said she's "rebuilding her voice". Although hopefully we can get better production and less processing/auto-tune on her vocals. Edited February 22, 2026 at 11:34 PM by PuraVida 1 Quote
