CELINE DION

Hello! I'm Céline DION! Here is my life:

> 1968: I was born on March, 30th in Charlemagne, Québec. I have 13 sisters and brothers.

> 1985-86: In November, I was invited to sing at the 'Olympia' music hall in Paris. I won several awards. I recorded a new single entitled 'Billy'. I took some time off, to learn English and re-think my image. When I returned to music, I recorded the single 'Je ne veux pas'.

> 1993: I recorded a third album in English in November: 'The Colour of My Love'. I also won a Grammy Award for the soundtrack of 'Beauty and the Beast'. The sales of 'The Colour of My Love' soon reached record proportions, topping the 10 million mark.
Very sad event: I lost one of my young nieces, Karine, to the disease cystic fibrosis. Happy event: I became engaged to René Angelil.
