Celine Dion shot from small-town obscurity to universal fame like a shooting star.

 

  Her life began in 1968 in Charlemagne, Québec, Canada. The youngest of 14 siblings, she and her family members didn’t always have enough to eat. But their home was filled with love and something else … music.

 

  At one point, her parents operated a restaurant where 5-year-old Celine delighted the customers with her performances. At 12, she, her mother and brother composed a song. Celine’s mother recorded her daughter singing it and sent the demo to well-known producer René Angélil. Upon meeting her, he signed the talented young girl to a contract, and the rest, as they say, is history!
