My story, my dream - Celine Dion

The international singing star, whose recordings have sold millions, gives us her intimate, poignant, inspiring life story - in her own words.

Celine Dion is one of the world's most popular singers. She sang to open the Olympic Games in Atlanta, she sang the Titanic theme song, she fills stadiums, all her albums are bestsellers. But here she tells her own story, in her own words.

The fourteenth child of French-Canadian parents, Celine Dion was born into a musical family where her brothers and sisters were already performing and recording. She was only 12 when Ren Anglil heard an amateur cassette of her singing, and already an established manager, took her on.

But more than just a story of her professional successes, My Story, My Dream is a real love story. Ren has always been the only man in the world for her, and they have built their lives around each other. But in Spring 1999, he discovered that he had cancer. Together they are fighting it and while 'the show must go on', Celine has taken a two year sabbatical from the limelight to spend as much time with her husband as possible.

My Story, My Dream takes us behind the scenes, to the reality behind the magic. With customary frankness, Celine Dion talks about her hopes and fears, and the joy of realising her greatest dream: motherhood.
