Ceiling Dion Through The Years From 1980 by Ahmed99: 5:08pm On Apr 01, 2016 |
Celine Dion Through the Years The wildly talented singer has enjoyed a record-breaking career — and an extraordinary life. 1/18 1980s: The Early Years The '80s were unkind to most of us, fashion-wise. Check out that "Let's Get Physical"-esque braided headband! From Good Housekeeping 2/18 1986: A Blossoming Romance Dion started secretly dating her agent and manager, René Angélil , in 1986. He was still married and they had a 26-year age difference. They got engaged in 1991. 3/18 1990: A Burgeoning Career Dion released her debut album in 1981, when she was only 13 years old. By the end of the decade, she was an award-winning singer on just about every continent ... except North America. For her American TV debut, she sang "Where Does My Heart Beat Now" on the Tonight Show . 4/18 1992: Major Breakthrough Her break into the English-speaking mainstream came via Disney. Her duet with Peabo Bryson on the Beauty and the Beast title track earned her a Grammy, an Oscar, and a truly international pop career. 5/18 1994: An Unforgettable Wedding Once their relationship went public, Dion and Angélil sealed the deal in opulent style. Adorned in jewels and fur, the singer and her longtime love wed live on Canadian TV. 6/18 1997: Award Winner "Falling Into You" won Album of the Year at the 1997 Grammys, with hits including the karaoke classic "It's All Coming Back to Me Now." 7/18 1997: Back-to-Back Hits Dion released a staggering nine studio albums in the 1990s, in both English and French. "Let's Talk About Love," released in 1997, featured a duet with Barbra Streisand and remains one of the best-selling albums of all time. 8/18 1998: Her Heart Goes on Just when she couldn't get more famous, she did. The record-smashing film Titanic features Dion's earworm hit "My Heart Will Go On." That opening flute still brings us to tears. Dion wore a replica of the film's "heart of the ocean" diamond to the 1998 Oscars, where she also performed the theme song. 9/18 1998: Diva Status Cemented VH1 launched their Divas Live concert franchise in 1998, with Dion joining the ranks of icons like Aretha Franklin and Carole King for an awe-inspiring TV special. 10/18 1999: A Daring Fashionista Lady Gaga, please note your roots! Dion rocked an eye-catching backwards tuxedo (with matching avant-garde chapeau) on the Oscars red carpet in 1999. 11/18 2001: Taking a Break At the height of her fame, Dion paused to concentrate on her family, and the expansion of it. Her son René-Charles Angélil was born in January 2001. 12/18 2004: Title Holder Her career went on hiatus, but her sales never did. Dion was named the best-selling female artist of all time at the World Music Awards in 2004, after selling more than 175 million albums worldwide. 13/18 2007: Headliner In 2002, she returned to music in spectacular fashion, signing on for a show five nights a week at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Her residency was extended from three years to five, and earned $400 million before it ended in 2007. 14/18 2010: A Bigger Brood Dion announced another go in Vegas within months of delivering twins in 2010. Can you say, Superwoman? 15/18 2015: A House Full of Boys Dion and Angélil named their twin sons Eddy and Nelson, after her favorite French singer and the South African president, respectively. 16/18 2015: A Devastating Illness After battling throat cancer for 15 years, Angélil's condition worsened, and Dion went on hiatus from her Vegas shows. In August 2015, she received a standing ovation in her first appearance back on the Caesars Palace stage. 17/18 2016: Her Heartbreaking Loss Dion's husband and brother both passed away in January 2016. Angélil was given a state funeral service in Quebec . 18/18 2016: A Look to the Future In the face of unimaginable grief, Dion remained the consummate professional. She returned to Caesars Palace in February 2016 , where she spoke and sang tributes to her beloved husband.
