Celine Dion's brother died of cancer

[ZoeHart]

I can't imagine losing your brother and husband to cancer within a few days

I saw that and couldn't believe it. I feel like even though she's had a very successful career, she's had some really hard life trials with cancer for her H and brother, and infertility. I love her music and she always seems like such a kind person when interviewed.

Even if you are not a fan of her music, her voice is simply incredible. She can hold a pure note for so long and has tremendous control.

Also, Kathy Griffin who has teased her mercilessly, has also said that after meeting her, she is so nice and generous. Happy to sign whatever, take pictures, etc. Just a class act.

Omg I saw yesterday that he was sick. How awful for her.

That poor woman.

Did she have a rough childhood too? Like before she was discovered. I could be confusing her with someone else, I should go google....

eta - nope, I was thinking of Shania Twain.

[sherbanator]

That's awful.

You might be thinking of Shania Twain. I do think Celine came from a large and maybe not that much money. I think in the beginning of her career she was helping to support her family.

How unfortunate. This must be an awful time for her.
