Celine Dion is one of the biggest international pop stars in history. Born on the 30th of March in Charlemagne, a city in the province of Quebec, Canada, she started her career at a young age in her native French. She won the Eurovision song contest in 1988 in Dublin, Ireland, representing Switzerland with the song Ne Partez Pas Sans Moi, (translated Don’t Leave Without Me). She released her debut English album in 1990.
After winning a Grammy and an academy award for the song beauty and the beast, the title theme of Disneys beauty and the beast, her career was well established. Over the next decade Celine went from strength to strength. To date she has sold over 100 million albums with no sign that she intends to stop. Her massively successful hit, My Heart Will Go On, from the film Titanic hit number 1 in the charts across the globe, selling over 50 million copies worldwide.
She took a break from the music world in 1999 to 2002. During this time her husband, Ren Angelil, was diagnosed with throat cancer. Thankfully he responded well to treatment and Celine gave birth to there son, Rene Charles, on 25 January 2001.
