Biography Filmography Links Contact Galleries
Date of birth: 30 March 1968,
Birth Place: Charlemagne, Quebec, Canada
Celine Dion was born into a large French-Canadian family in 1968, the youngest of fourteen children. Sharing the musical ability evident throughout her family, Celine began singing at the young age of 5 and recorded her first demo by age 12. Little did Dion realize that the man who first heard this demo, Rene Angelil, would someday become her husband.
In 1982 Dion won her first international honor with the song “Tellement J’ai D’amour Pour Toi" and soon became a star in her native Quebec. Despite this local stardom, and eventual success in France and Switzerland, it would take years before the coveted U.S. market took notice of Dion.
Celine Dion finally inked a record contract with Sony in 1986 after expanding her musical ability by learning English. The release of the English Unison in 1990 would be the key to her American success. “(If There Was) Any Other Way" and “Where Does My Heart Beat Now" were two of the four Top 10 singles from the platinum selling album which earned Dion two Juno Awards and increased her visibility in the United States.
Dion certified her celebrity status with a strong
vocal number from the Disney animated film Beauty and the Beast, which
won her an Academy Award for “Song Of The Year". The same song
pushed sales from her second English language album, Celine Dion sky-high
and garnered Dion a massive extension of her Juno collection
