Just Celine.

Bosom friends!

As I said once before there is nothing better than starting the day with a good liberating cry.

On August 13 last year, Celine Dion released a statement to her fans confirming that she would be leaving her Vegas residency due to her husband's poor health. She dismissed her show gowns for a more practical nurse uniform. She left a hugely successful gig to help her husband getting better. Celine wanted to be there first hand and that is exactly what she did.


Now that her husband is doing better Celine is back.
Thank you Lord Almighty.

This morning on ABC's Good morning America Celine Dion broke down in tears in an interview with reporter Deborah Roberts about her manager and husband René Angélil's battle with throat cancer. (Here is the link)
During the interview Celine revealed that Rene has to be fed by a feeding tube. 'He can't eat so I feed him. He's got a feeding tube. I have to feed him three times a day. I DO this myself.'
Although incredibly emotional, Celine vowed that they will both continue to fight cancer saying 'We are taking life one day at a time,' she said. 'But we are choosing to live.'
This is why the singer will resume her residency at Caesars Palace Las Vegas on August 27th with a new act.
Again, thank you Lord Almighty.

Now you may or may not find Celine Dion an extraordinary vocalist and performer (my hubby thinks she is a bit awkward when performing live...) but we must all appreciate her candour and her I-am-an-open-book disposition.

Talking about a troubled loved one during an interview, on camera and having to carry the responsibility of being a huge success time after time (not only for herself but for all the people who have a job thanks to her) must be quite a bitch ride to follow through with.
Indeed she is giving such interviews to promote her Vegas come back but she doesn't need to share such details about her private life to make anybody buy a ticket to her show. She is frigging Celine Dion not Latoya Jackson. I believe she chooses to be so open and personal because she feels about her emotions the same way she feels about singing: that's all she knows.
Celine knows how to sing and she knows how she feels.
I think that being masters at what we do and being perfectly connected to our emotions is a very powerful state of mind.
As long as we have a purpose and we hold on to our true sentiments any obstacle can be taken care of.
Celine said "We have a ticket to fly and a ticket to live" so they are going back to her performing all the way to Vegas because they are alive and they must live.

I don't know about you but I fell in love with Celine even more this morning.

She truly embodies one of her biggest songs because indeed her heart (and her show) will go on.

Ciao for now.
