Céline Dion knows that tribute was paid to her at the SuperFrancoFête and, according to her brother Jacques, she is surprised that so many artists agreed to take part in the album’s celebration Twowhich brought together almost 7,000 people at the Agora de Québec.
“She even asked me who was in the show,” confessed the star’s older brother, whom Le Journal met before the start of the show “Pour toi Céline” – a tribute to the Album D’eux – on Sunday evening.
“I named the artists after her, both French and Quebecois, and she can’t believe so many artists are traveling for this album. She likes it very much, we get along, but she says there could have been ten artists and they could have sang the songs. »
So it is not only in Quebec where Mario Pelchat, Bruno Pelletier, Isabelle Boulay, Corneille, Vincent Niclo, Roch Voisine, Véronic Dicaire, Axelle Red and many others sing the pieces of D’eux as well as the greatest hits of the world Diva that there will be emotions. Céline Dion is also moved.
“Absolutely,” said Jacques Dion. She wrote to me two hours before I arrived in Quebec and asked for news. I told her I would be there and think about her a lot. She asked me to kiss everyone. »
50 Dion in Quebec
No fewer than fifty members of the Dion family traveled to Quebec to attend the show.
It’s nothing, if all brothers, sisters, children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren had agreed to the invitation of producer Sylvain Parent-Bédard, up to 120 people would have represented Céline in Quebec.
“I told Sylvain to be careful when he said he wanted to invite the whole Dion family because it requires a complex infrastructure for us all to sit together,” Mr Dion said with a smile.
The Madlei? No answers
Céline Dion was also invited to the show, but due to her illness, Stiff Person Syndrome, she was unable to make the trip to the capital, forcing her to put her career on hold.
“She works on her health every day,” says Jacques Dion. That’s the most important thing at the moment. It’s neurological, it’s complex, it’s professionals trying to figure out what’s wrong with her and what can cure her. So when we are asked questions about his health, we cannot answer them. We would give wrong answers. »
We can only keep our fingers crossed and hope that we can see them again one day.
“You understand everything, sir. »
