9/11 devastated her
Céline Dion was on hiatus when the 9/11 attacks murdered almost 3,000 people. This event stunned the singer and spurred her to try to rebuild America’s hopes and dreams. This kind of occurrence was never predicted on American soil, thus many Americans were stunned. She wanted to honour the 9/11 heroes and comfort the grieving. Her concert “America: A Tribute to Heroes” ended with “God Bless America.” This performance moved tens of thousands and helped Céline unite and inspire the country. Chuck Taylor, a former senior editor at Billboard magazine, said Céline’s performance was “affective, meaningful, and replete with grace.”
She’s an American and Canadian Star
Céline Dion is one of the greatest vocalists of all time, but not for her singing or performances. She can inspire people across boundaries and cultures. The singer has been a role model for many since she was a child, bringing love and positivity. Her voice and charisma make her a worldwide favourite. Céline is one of the few entertainers to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the Canadian Walk of Fame in Toronto. This made her proud because she spent years learning English to influence others worldwide. Most people do not know that Céline Dion is fluent in French, English, and can sing in Spanish, Italian, German, Latin, and Mandarin Chinese. A true paradigm for diversity and worldwide love.
