Celine Dion

1°) Maman Dion's niece.

2°) The most brilliant voice of today's popular music, singing some of popular music's crappiest songs ever. Could have been a modern Edith Piaf. Decided to become just another Barbra Streisand clone - except that Barbra actually sang nice songs sometimes. Utterly manipulated by her husband Rene (think something between Marlon Brando in The Godfather, and Relic in aftery2k), she became one of the most impressive cash machines in recent history, second only to General Electric and of course Slashdot.org (although I'm unsure about the former).

People love her voice, her smile, her innocence and her Quebecois accent (especially when she speaks French - "J'voudrais r'mercier mon paaaiir', ma maaaaiiir'...") just as much as they despise all of that. Still, her talent is undeniable when you hear her sing older, good songs (eg Jacques Brel's "Quand on n'a que l'amour"). The spoiling of such a treasure as Celine Dion's voice will be remembered in the future as one of capitalism's greatest crimes against humanity (and music).
