Really? I'd never heard of her, and I've never heard another one of her songs on any kind of radio station since. Where does one even hear about a new Celine Dion album?

Is she one of those people who holds up the line with a ton of coupons?

She's actually one of those people who put their cart too close to the aisle right by the **** that you need. Unfortunately, Celine Dion is also one of those people who acts as if you're slaughtering their child when you politely ask them to move.

Shopping in Canada is some serious ****.

I will pledge $1 million dollars to hire thugs to make the lives of the hurricane victims worse, until Celine Dion takes back her check.

She had Falling Into You, which was released a year before the Titanic soundtrack and it went multi-platinum many times over. She also had four or five albums before that.

I only know this because my mom used to be a Celine Dion fanatic, and she owned most of her discography through 2002's A New Day Has Come.
