December 25th 2006 - OKAY OKAY I'm back :) !! Céline's in Montréal right now but is just going back to Vegas, she performs this Wednesday! During her stay in Montréal, she recovered from a respiratory infection diagnosed as mycoplasma bronchitis, which can be highly contagious. On the last week of November, she cancelled a whole week of performances to get better. Well, she's a normal human being and like you and me, she has also the rights of getting ill. By the way, thank God, she's fine right now :).

Still, Céline was on stage at Ste Therese (in Quebec) during a Marc Dupré concert, they sang together Tout Pres Du Bonheur.

Céline also recorded 7 of 12 songs she's preparing for her next French album at Piccolo Studios on December 20th and 21st (The album's tittle will be "D'elles" (Hers) and is scheduled to be released on May 22nd, 2007).

Before going to Montréal, Céline stopped in  New York to promote her new fragrance. During her promotion, Linda, Céline's sister, took care of René Charles. Take a look:

September 28th 2006 - A box of 6 of the Contes pour tous (Tales for everyone, Quebec kids movies) has just been released in Québec. There's a documentary about Céline singing for this movies series (Peanut Butter Solution, 1985). It can be purchased at Imavision website for $44.95 CAD.


Thanks Sylvain Beauregard for the info

- Not confirmed officially but, it's worth to let you know: Céline Dion and legendary producer Quincy Jones are teaming up for the first time.They got together at the Palms recording studios on Tuesday for a special record, collaborating on a song for a tribute CD to Italian composer Ennio Morricone, best known for scoring Clint Eastwood's classic spaghetti western "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly." The Oscar-winning lyricists Alan and Marilyn Bergman have written the lyrics for the song, titled "I Knew I Loved You," which didn't have lyrics in director Sergio Leone's 1984 film "Once Upon a Time in America," starring Robert DeNiro and James Woods.
Thanks Nance on the e-group

September 24th 2006 - Well... i think i'm back! We've got quite a few cool info on Céline these past few days but i couldn't get the strength. I'm working on this site since 1999 and many of you guys follow me not only for Céline Dion, but for the friendship we have built all along these years. Many of you guys followed part of my personal life's problems and victories. Well... two weeks ago i've lost someone i really love so much and it made me feel so weak for not being able to help someone i've been thru for over 27 years: My grandma went to the other shore, another life, she passed away. Left me with no goodbye. What comforts me is that i've been by herside completely. She was my everything, an example of every little and huge great things life could bring. I hope she's well at her new place now. Some of my friends heard from here and there and i really wanna thank them all for their messages and prayers. They did and do help me a lot.
Love you all,
Estevam Peric,
whatever it takes, forever a Céline Dion fan!

You know, we are here in this world to live our lives, to make good things to ourselves and to other people too. As we are human beings, we are also here to make mistakes and learn with them. When i entered the Célinish world, i made too many friends but i made a real strong mistake to one of them. I had a fight with Sylvain Beauregard (owner of www.celine-dion.net)  last year and offended him in public. We weren't talking for almost 2 years and today, we have both decided to forget everything and be friends again. I would like to clear the air and tell again in public that friends are friends whatever it takes, and real friendships let every mistake to be forgotten. I am really glad for being able to forgive and be forgiven when people are still alive.
Sylvain, thank you once again, for everything we did together in the past... and wish we can be even better friends from now on.
By the way, Passion Céline Dion is getting back online.

September 4th 2006 - Céline performed 'Summertime' LIVE yesterday on Jerry Lewis 2006 Telethon.

-- Summertime --Lyrics

Written by: Dubose Heyward, George Gershwin

Summertime
And the living is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mama's good lookin'
So hush little baby
don't you cry

One of these mornin's
You're gonna rise up singin'
You're gonna spread your wings
And take to the sky... take to the sky

But til that mornin'
Ain't nothin' can harm you
With your daddy and mammy
standin' by

Summertime
And the living is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mama's good lookin'
So hush little baby
don't you cry

Summertime
And the living is easy
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high

Your daddy's rich
And your mama's good lookin'
So hush little baby
don't you cry

On the other side, I'm having many problems myself so that i had to turn my personal attention to other particular things on my life. But please, never think I've forgotten Céline...

April 20th 2006 - Hi! We're not having much news in the past few weeks. I'd love to come up with more good news but, sometimes, we get to learn what we don't feel like. Céline is still sick, according to the yesterday's announcement, she's cancelled all shows since last Saturday until this Sunday. Celine continues to recover from the virus she contracted last week which spread to her inner ear. Medically known as viral labyrinthitis, the condition causes nausea, dizziness, and general weakness. Her doctor has prescribed medication to treat the associated irritations, and instructed her to rest for the next 5 days, so that the virus can run its course. Even far away, we're with her for whatever it takes! Get better Céline!!!

- On this link we can visit the Colosseum virtually and have a better view on how far is any seat from the audience to the stage!

April 16th 2006 - Hi! First of all i wanna wish everyone (those whom celebrate) a very Happy Easter Time! I heard Céline Dion got sick again and had to cancel yesterday's concert.

- Céline was intervied by Marie-Christine Blais, journalist of La Presse, a Québecer Newspaper. On CYBERPRESS we can find a full interview on it (But in French). It basically talks about Céline's fight against the Ashma. She explains that what really bothers her everynight isn't to sing when she's ill, but to sing without letting her fans to know that she's. She also tells that René Charles is her support... he wants to takes care of his mom all the time, isn't that an amazing thing?? Marie also saw that everynight, she meets a fan who's ill... With serious illness like Cystic Fibrosis. Céline's still singing Pour que tu m'aimes encore (Woohoo!). Her's a picture of Céline:
