Loved by the Pope
Pope John II was highly impressed with Celine’s singing voice. In 1984, she sang for the Pope and used the French anthem for Montreal’s Olympic Stadium. Reports show that the Pope loved her performance, and she enjoyed it, too.
Time to Grow
After her many musical hits, Rene told Celine to take a well-deserved break. While it was risky because she could have been forgotten, she spent 18 months growing and learning about herself. She says she matured into a woman during that time.
