He said he would if she asked him…

I think it’s Elise we can expect won’t be there, since Denis reportedly stopped working with Céline in 2024. 

No...I have always liked Elise the most out of the whole band...she's lovely...

[Céline RO]

For me 2011 was the absolute supreme Céline. Best she’s ever looked, best she’s ever sounded, and probably the happiest she’s ever been. Life peaked in 2011 for her.

Hey guys, first time poster, long time lurker! It feels only right to sign up and have some fun with our exciting soon-to-be Celine news!

I’ve been a huge fan since the 90s and the release of Falling Into You and been fortunate to have seen her live here in the UK and Vegas. I can’t tell you how excited this week has made me to not only know that she is pushing through her illness, but that she will be back on stage again doing what she loves!

In a funny sort of full circle moment this week has reminded me of how ABBA did the announcement for Voyage, billboards appeared with graphics and a date which went on to be the announcement of a new album and the Voyage show. Benny and Bjorn announced it live in London, but Stockholm and New York also held fan events which created such a buzz.  It’s actually where I ended up on its premiere weekend once the news came that the Courage tour and my London O2 night was cancelled.  It was crazy then so I cant even imagine just how crazy it will be once Queen Celine has announced! 😍

I am nervous about tickets and how even more in demand Celine will be, but I’m hoping that the genuine fans and those of us who didn’t get our Courage nights get to have a moment in Paris with her!  

The announcement can’t come quick enough, it has me almost wishing the weekend away!  I wonder what the new show will be called?

Yeah, me too. I think a lot of us have a special relationship with Elise, whether we’ve met her or not—and so does Céline. 

But that’s not the point. 

Denis Savage, her husband and collaborator with Céline for 37 years, stopped working with Céline in 2024 after having been her manager. We don’t know how amicable that split was (remember Mego and the other band members) and I think chances are slim that Elise would continue by Céline’s side. Unless, of course, Denis chose to stay in a different role (e.g. sound manager), which I also think is unlikely.

I don't know how many old faces we'll get to see in the new show,at least Scott is coming back,right?

I've thought the same about Célines life during 2011, she had the addition of the twins, they were a happy family all together...for a couple of years until Renés second diagnosis 🥲

The most beautiful she ever looked, IMO, was during her Bercy dates in 2012.  Those shows were also magical.

As great as Une Seule Fois was, id have killed for one of the Paris shows to be released. I'm glad we got the bonus tracks that were recorded there. That was a crazy inclusion on the cds.

You mean 2013 right? I attended those and yes she looked stunning. The darker hair color, the dresses. So beautiful. Was the last time I saw Rene at the show. When he enters the soundboard you know it's showtime!

Think he just stopped being her manager but I can be wrong.

Everyone has different opinions but seems everyone agrees all the best looks are Annie Horth.
 

I think it was rumored that Celine won’t be staying at the hotel while in Paris, probably because with rehearsal time and shows she’ll be there 3+ months… so we likely won’t see the daily fashion walk outs like she did with Law. I think that’s why she chose Annie again over law. I’m sure even Celine knows for the stage Annie was better… however, law roach styled the crap outta Celine for street wear!  Rumor has it she was checking out homes/villas in Paris, to home base. 

Yeah apparently she isn't staying full time in the hotel. Totally understandable, think she rented a nice mansion with lots of garden and privacy. So she and the family can have a little free time as well.

[Celine Fan 77]

I think Denis is still part of Feeling Productions, he just has a different role now but we’ll have to wait and see.

I think Scott is the only one we can safely assume will be back.

[comingback]

So Celine will not be in Paris.

Do you think there will be a live event/video on X/Instagram?

Where did you guys get that rumor from? That she won’t be staying in a hotel. Would be understandable, I just don’t remember reading/hearing that anywhere. To be honest, it wouldn’t even surprise me if she stayed at the Royal Monceau for three months doing sidewalk fashion shows every day lol

My guess is that her video message announcing the concerts, when and how to get tickets and possible future albums will be shown during that event in Paris. Then, it will be posted on her social media.

Je suppose que son message vidéo annonçant les concerts, les dates et les modalités d'achat des billets, ainsi que d'éventuels projets d'albums futurs, sera diffusé lors de cet événement parisien. Il sera ensuite partagé sur ses réseaux sociaux. 

Yes, I think so too. There’s an event Monday (most likely for the press and influencers), and Céline will have recorded a video message.

'Je Chanterai' would be such an amazing opening song for this tour. Even acapella. ❤️

Et quand nous aurons fait le tour de nos ultimes projets
Quand nous apprendrons a aimer nos echecs et nos regrets
Quand nous en serons a ouvrir nos livres de souvenirs
Je chanterai, je chanterai, je chanterai, je chanterai toujours...

Not as outward expressive as Je Chanterai, but I also had to think of Thankful. As a reflective moment, choosing appreciation for what life has given, even when it wasn’t easy.

But I'd take any song to be honest. Even LCMM.

If you check out their site the only dates not available are the show dates. So assuming she just sleeps there on shownight and leaves the day after.

Great find with the hotel. All but confirming the dates for sure. Mad you can’t book a room there at all those nights

The Hard Way would also be a super fitting choice! In fact that song should have been the theme-song for the 2024 documentary.

If any of her team read this forum they must laugh at some of the detective work and effort fans go to 😄🤩

It's come up before but surely they must keep track of it do you think? Or not?

The more I read this topic the more I’m wanting to go now ☺️

What is everyone's playlist for the weekend to keep themselves patient/ distracted 

Sans Attendre going here at the moment

Or at least be included in the soundtrack. It is a song about resilience. It is as if they are unaware of her catalogue.

Random songs from D'eux and 1F&4T here. Although I love Sans Attendre - more of a winter album in my books.

Encore Un Soir here…. I’m so excited and nervous at the same time.  Not often I want the weekend to speed up.

It's Autumn in my part of the world 😄

Maybe I'll just play Attendre 500 million times and by then it'll be Monday 

[Celine Fan 77]

Call me crazy but I’ve recently started listening to Céline’s full Sony discography all over again from Incognito 😅 L’Olympia album is playing now.
