Celine Dion is a pop singer who rose to superstardom in the 1990s. Dion has found success as a pop and adult contemporary artist, and her concerts are known to sell out faster than most other artists currently performing.
Celine Dion was born on March 13, 1968 in Charlemagne, Quebec, Canada where she began performing at the age of 5 in her parents’ piano bar. When she was 12, she composed a song entitled “Ce n’était qu’un rêve(It Was Just a Dream”) which she composed with her mother and brother Jacques. Her brother Michael sent a recording of the young singer to music manager Rene Angelil, who was moved to tears by the singer’s powerful young voice. Angelil mortgaged his house so he could fund Dion’s first album. Dion quickly shot to fame in Qeuebc and won several Juno and Felix awards. When she was 18, Angelil took Dion to see Michael Jackson perform in concert. Dion was inspired by Jackson, and announced she wanted to be a star like him. Angelil went to work with Dion to make sure her dreams of worldwide stardom would happen.
In 1990, after taking two years off to improve her image and learn the English language, Celine Dion released “Unison”. The album was a success, and Dion quickly became a rising star in America. In 1991 she released her self- titled follow-up album. Dion’s star rose even further in 1993 when she released “The Colour of My Love”, which contained her first #1 American single “The Power of Love”. The album went on to sell 6 million copies. Celine Dion shot to superstardom in 1996 with the song “Because You Loved Me”. The song was featured on “Falling Into You”, which went on to sell 6 million copies and is one of the best selling albums of all time. The Celine Dion tour of the same name kicked off that year. Dion has gone on to release several other singles and albums, and has won Grammy and Oscar awards. In 2003, Dion kicked off a 600 show concert in Las Vegas. She has also written an autobiography and has a line of Celine Dion perfumes on the market.
