Discovered In The Weirdest Way
Her gifts were recognized by the family at an early age. Her mother along with her brother Jacques wrote a song hoping that it would lead to Celine’s discovery by someone from the industry. The plan worked, and the producer Rene Angelil reached out to her.
Her Mom Had To Interfere
The demo that Celine’s mother sent to Rene had a note that said, “This is a 12-year-old with a fantastic voice. Please listen to her. We want her to be like Ginette Reno.” At first, the producer didn’t respond. One of Celine’s brothers reached out to Rene and pleaded for him give the demo a chance. When he did listen to the demo, he contacted Celine straight away to invite her to do an audition.
