Catholic Star
The Dions were a Roman Catholic family. In 2014, Celine said that, “It’s important for people to have something they can touch and believe in.” The singer went on to explain, “I say that to believe in yourself is to believe in God. For me, God is life itself, the birds, the air, the sunrise and the sunset, the children. Yes, that is where I find God. Not in a church.”
Reaching For Gold
Celine broke international records, and her rapid rose to worldwide fame allowed her to enter the difficult French market. The hit single “D’amour ou d’amitié” meaning “Of Love or of Friendship” was certified gold in France.
