Ladies and Gentlemen.. How do you congratulate an artist with a 1000 performances? I don't know, all I know is that I'm in awe of this milestone.. Not just because of the success of a 1000 shows, but in awe of a firm believe in the power of music and passion that led to this success. I'm in awe of the belief of René in his wife's musical talents, I'm in awe of his business mind and creativity to start this project.. I'm in awe of the commitment of Céline to enter the Colleseum each night and deliver a brilliant show... Nights when she had to endure her father's death, her twins birth, Rene's cancer, passing and his Celebration of life...All we as fans can say is thank you for each and every night you delivered a show.. Thank you for making us proud. Thank you for showing us that if you have a commitment you deliver, despite the circumstances. René is smiling from heaven today! I know that you always Said that you don't wanna hear how great you are you just wanna hear that we had a great time.. So from each fan in the world and South Africa especially.. "Thanks we had a great time" . Love from South Africa! #celinedion #celine1000th #Vegas #celinedion5southafrica #ceaserspalace #lasvegasstrip #celinelasvegas #queenofvegas #queenofthestrip #Canada #France #Belgium #USA #Nevada #Montreal #quebec #charlemagne #céline1000th
