"Dion’s voice bursts with pride as she tells Stellar about the eulogy, pointing out that it was her son’s final chance to talk to his father. “He said, ‘Will there be a lot of people?’ I said, ‘Yes, darling — there will be.’ He got a standing ovation. He found a way to be emotional, be truthful and made people relax a little bit. He was a champ.
Celine Dion is also making new music. Her 2016 French release "Encore Un Soir" was the last record she and Angélil worked on together — the title track was a tribute to him. Her new album will be in English, and René-Charles has offered his opinions on potential songs. Celine Dion even offered him a chance to be on the record.
“I think it’s normal most of the young kids are into rap music,” she says. “Because RC writes his own songs, I said I’d love to put one of them on my album. He said, ‘Mum, we can’t do that, you have a reputation! You make a certain type of music, my type of music is like rap.’ I thought, I get it, because the words in rap can be harsh and tough and maybe wouldn’t fit my style. So I said maybe he could change a few words? He said ‘Mum, rap is all about the words. If I change a few, the song isn’t the same. I can’t do that. It’s very kind, I appreciate it, but I don’t think now is the time. I’m still too young, I don’t think people are ready for it, I don’t want to cause any trouble.’”

Adele came to her Vegas show where the pair — major fans of one another — met, but Celine Dion says even mere talk of a potential collaboration “makes me nervous”. The new album will feature more songs by Australia’s Sia — who wrote the title track to her last English album, 2013’s "Loved Me Back To Life" .“Sia is one of my favourite female artists of all time. She’s been writing me a lot of songs. We either have to do them all and call the album Sia By Céline or we choose the best of them.”

“Is there a best place to be when you turn the big 5-0?” she asks. “I’m not a birthday girl, not even when I was 20. To be honest, I’d rather be doing a show. But five is my lucky number, so I’m quite excited to turn 50.
“But birthdays for me... you answer the phone all day. At the end of the day your house smells like a funeral from all the flowers! You don’t even know where to put them all, they don’t always fit the décor. But people are so kind.”
Celine Dion tells Stellar that she will eventually celebrate a belated birthday — on her own terms. “I’ll take a day off from my Vegas schedule and tell my kids: ‘Today’s my birthday!’ To them 21 or 37 or 50 doesn’t make a difference. So I’m going to make my birthday with my children; maybe go bowling, or go to the movies, or sit in bed watching the Disney Channel, or having breakfast three times in one day of scrambled eggs on toast with peanut butter. That’d be great. I’ll have my birthday my way, on a day off.”"
