Discovered In The Weirdest Way
Celine’s mother and brother Jacques composed songs for her because they knew Celine had the makings of a great singer. Her mother did everything she could so Celine’s talent will not go to waste. Fortunately, her family’s hard work paid off when they were able to catch the attention of Rene Angelil.
Her Mom Had To Interfere
Celine’s mother first sent a demo to Rene with a note saying, “This is a 12-year-old with a fantastic voice. Please listen to her. We want her to be like Ginette Reno.” Rene didn’t reply right away. In fact, it was only with the persuasion of Celine’s brother that the producer decided to give it a shot. Once Rene heard Celine’s voice, he immediately contacted her to audition for him.
