Celine Dion: The Queen Of Canada

By JC Villamere. 30 Mar 2018 7:09 AM

Yes, of course, the current Canadian monarch is Queen Elizabeth II, who has reigned since February 6, 1952. But with all apologies to monarchists and others, this is a destination for entertainment news (Hey! “Entertainment” is even in our name!) and so we’re talking about Celine Dion being the (absolute) queen in that context. Join us as we show you how she reigns supreme in honour of Canada Day.

She's not a diva, she's the queen.
@celinedion
A professional performer employs professionals to help her look her best for her performances. It's not an indulgence: it's a job requirement! Here, Dion's glam squad includes Shay Ashual and Taichi Saito on hair and Mark Carrasquillo and Ai Yokomizo on makeup. Go team!

Grace and perseverance

She returned to the stage after the loss of her husband and issued this message to fans: "Thanks to my fans and to the amazing Colosseum public, that night after night gave me the energy to go on and make a show that René would be proud of."
She reps Quebec.

She's the top dog.
@celinedion
When she ducks out from the Met Gala — in full Versace — to grab a hot dog, you know there's no one better to rep us on the international stage.
...And the top mom!
@celinedion
She has three sons and works hard to protect their privacy but she did share this snap of their Halloween mummy hot dog treats, which made us say 'Aww!' for days.
She is art.
@celinedion
Everything she does is so beautiful that maybe we SHOULD put her on the coin! We're just gushing here but c'mon, look at the way she wears this Gucci. Stunning. Regal. Royal.
She's a winner.
@celinedion
Dion has won five Grammy Awards in 17 nominations, and a whopping 20 Juno Awards in 72 nominations. Only Anne Murray has won more Juno Awards, with a total of 24 wins in 52 nominations.
She is beloved.

Behold, our queen! An iconic superstar among throngs of adoring fans! C'est extraordinaire!
She endures.

From her debut album 'La Voix Du Bon Dieu' at the age of 14 in 1981 to this ebullient shot of Dion celebrating her 1,000th show at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, Dion has been a singular superstar, and one that Canada can be proud of! God Save Celine et bonne fete!
