Celine Dion to pay tribute to Paris at American Music Awards .
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Celine Dion will honor the victims of the attacks in Paris at Sunday's American Music Awards.
ABC and Dick Clark productions say that Dion will perform a rendition of Edith Piaf's "Hymne à L'Amour" in French at the ceremony to pay tribute to those affected by last week's attacks.
American Music Awards producer Larry Klein says the ceremony's producers wanted to show solidarity.
"Hymne à L'Amour" was written by Piaf as a tribute to lover Marcel Cerdan. He died in a plane crash in 1949.
Jennifer Lopez is set to host and perform at Sunday's fan-favorite ceremony at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. Other performers include Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Gwen Stefani, Coldplay, One Direction and Carrie Underwood. The awards air at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.
“We felt it was important to show our solidarity in light of the recent events in Paris and all around world,” said Larry Klein, Producer of the “2015 American Music Awards.” “Celine’s performance will help us express our feelings through song, when words do not suffice.”
