S'agit-il vraiment d'une photo des répétitions ou d'une image de synthèse ?

I leave for the airport in a few hours. Super excited! 

[symon]

Two days to go !... I m so excited. 

Dealing with the voice, I m quite sure Céline has recorded new playbacks in the studio this spring, for the hard songs. It s not a problem, she has done it since the beginning.

I m sure she will have no problem with all the french songs and the majority of the english songs too. 

Dansons and BPM are not perfect but she sounds at least as good as 10 years ago.

But please no Ellie Saab performance 🙏🙏🙏 this and nothing is the same.

I will sell my October and May tix if we get 2002 or 1994 vocals

I also noticed last night that Joyce Smyth had arrived in Paris. Did you see her, too?

Given the vocal quality we’ve heard on the singles, the live performance in Quebec, etc., we know she hasn’t got her voice back. What people are saying simply makes no sense.

Just the other day, during Nagui’s/Taratata’s documentary about her voice — which was still a very good documentary overall — major composers and producers were commenting on some of her performances on camera, claiming that, contrary to what people might think, she wasn’t lip-syncing, when she very clearly was.

The whole narrative, the level of dishonesty, and the comments coming from all these people are ridiculous. And that includes this person, by the way.

But no, I don’t believe her voice has come back.

Yeah I think people are confusing what "her voice is back" actually means. She isn't going to suddenly sound like 1995 again, I'm worried these stories in the press saying better than ever are giving people an inflated sense of what she will sound like.

Personally, what "her voice is back" to me means is that she can sing without constantly cracking, notes will actually come out. We saw her try to sing I Want to Know What Love Is and there was absolutely nothing there. We saw her barely being able to get a note out in the recording session of Love Again without cracking. The Olympics performance isn't anything to go off, like Love Again she might have been in the studio for days taking the best parts from 100 different attempts for all we know.

If she was even Courage levels but without the strain and cracking then that would just be the voice of a 58 year old Celine, which is all we should be expecting, her matured voice. And that would be all we can ask for!

What is more interesting to me was to hear she was going back to listen to her songs to remember how to sing, which gives me hope some that some of her vocal arrangements and pronunciations will be better.

Can we not just go to these shows and enjoy every second of shows I personally never thought would happen...

[Alice]

Yes, we can 🫡

Who did her make up here? What’s with the white like powder in some parts of her face? She needs Scott Barnes again

It’s stage makeup vs camera flashlights, it wouldn’t look like that in real life or on stage or screen. Most stage makeup thats designed for that purpose doesn’t photograph particularly well.

On the way… 🇫🇷🎤🇨🇦🫶

[Alice]

Safe travels to all those who are already or will soon be travelling!

[Alex_Incognito]

Bon voyage to those coming to Paris!  If anyone needs any special recommendations for thing to eat, do, and see - feel free to send me a PM.

I don't have any information, but knowing how Le Parisien works, it's possible that within a few hours we'll have new information about the concerts. Maybe tonight or tomorrow.

But at the same time, they're a partner, so I wonder if they're not authorized to publish certain things.

[stevo]

I just hope she does now lay low until the 12th- no more hotel madness until she nails the first show. 

 

And just a thought, maybe it's Joyce doing her Socials and that's why it's....delayed.....😁

I did wonder would Le Parisien publish some scoops today / tomorrow. Surely if ANYTHING will be revealed, it’ll be via them. Let’s hope if they do, they don’t say too much. I’ll read every word cause I’ve the self control of a chair and want to be surprised 🤭

Aaah the other 'manager' I'm still curious what these 2 are actually doing. Hope we get an interview with Joyce some day about the business. 

That interview with John was like talking to Claudette about Céline. 🙄

[drove all night]

Sorry if it was asked before, but strangely I can't look at older pages in this thread.

Does someone know who that lady is on the balcony with Nelson. Linda? Or (as a friend of mine presumed) Rolande?

Enough of the s*** managers, they need to hire Aldo back 🤣 

you’d think if you have TWO managers they’d do something… one is in London sipping tea with the Rolling Stones and the other has the personality of the tea. 

if he didn’t have sticky hands, bring em back, he’s the only one who seems to have a clue besides René.

I can't remember her name, but she  looks like the lady who was giving Céline a massage (after show) in the all access pass of A New Day.

Aldo and his wife certainly knew how to handle her social media. Always walking behind her filming and taking pictures and immediately upload it on the instagram. 

And now? Not a single post or story, absolutely nothing. Just asking us for pictures and videos, and messing up the insta grid.

John is just busy acting important with his boyfriends. 🙄

Correct! I recently found out it was actually Aldo's wife who insisted on managing her social media back in the 2014-2017 period. How I wish they'd hire her just as a community manager...

That sounds ridiculous...😂 Lost a whole octave?So the highest note she can reach now is C5?

Does she even know what she's talking about?😒

 

I don’t think so. She belted a note during sing along with her fans outside her hotel

We'll hear Céline's real voice in two days.

Let's witness how THEE QUEEN shut them all up!😏

[jpatdeleon09]

Oh my!!

2 days to go before SHOWTIME

so.. now is the day Céline will shut her mouth for the preparation of the show 😁

So do we have confirmation as to whether her band members are all the same as 2020? Aside from the fourth backup singer
