Celine on Now!!!

[speedoo]

Here we go.

[DODI]

1. I love her for this!

[proud2BlibKansan]

2. Wow great rant

What a wonderful lady.

[KeepItReal]

3. I never had an opinion of her before. She is amazing.

She has a big heart and understands what is going on.

[speedoo]

4. King is such an asshole.

stark contrast with a wonderful, honest woman who speaks from her heart.

[VolcanoJen]

16. Isn't he though? Celine, quit talking about the suffering people!!!

Let's talk about you and all your money and how great you are!!!

He kept interrupting her rant. He's a choad.

As God is my witness, I never thought I'd write this, but Celine, you angel-voiced superstar, you are an inspiration.

[nonconformist]

5. Wow!!! She said it ALL - EXACTLY how I've been feeling

Fantastic. So much true empathy.

6. You know she was booed in Canada at the Live 8 concert....

I never heard the details, but she definitely was. That had to be painful...

Bless her for this. Her sincerity is coming through loud and clear.

[FreedomAngel82]

8. I think she was boo'd

because she did the program taped and not live and she didn't go there and perform but did it in Las Vegas. :shrug: I think that's what it was anyways. But I've always been a Celine fan since the "Titanic" movie.

[Uzybone]

7. Its a lump in the throat kinda moment

she sang beautifully.

[LTR]

9. Okay, fill me in here

I'm just logging on to DU, and thinking it very strange that all of you are kissing Celine "I am zee vorld'z greatezt zinger" Dion's ass.

:wtf:

[Tyranny_R_US]

12. *smacks* Fighting Irish

Show some repect and say Thanks for once!

[Spazito]

13. Watch this, this is why there are threads about her

[LTR]

20. Oh.

Very emotional stuff. She said a lot of things I've been saying all week, particularly about the looting.

Still don't care much for her music, but I liked what she had to say.

And I said what I said because I've been seeing Celine ripped apart on DU for years (especially in the Lounge). Thought she must have stuck pins in a Bush voodoo doll or something to gain so much popularity here.

[Autumn Colors]

10. Oh ....

what have I now missed twice???!?!?!! What did she say and doesn't anyone know if this will get rerun a third time?

[Spazito]

17. CNN has it up at their site, I haven't watched it so don't know if it

is the full coverage but here's the link:

19. The show will repeat at 4AM

It's a three-hour special and she's not on until about the last half-hour. So if you tune in at, say, 6:15 or so you should be fine.

[CoffeeCat]

11. I stayed up very late to hear Celine...

...because I only caught the last couple minutes of her appearance.

She was honest and she spoke from the heart.

I hope more people continue to speak out about the obvious failures of this corrupt, reckless, compassion-less administration. God knows the Republicans will have their PR machine working overtime. We need every voice we can get.

Larry King seemed uncomfortable. He was the master of ceremonies at Bush Sr. 80the birthday party. He's a family friend. So I guess Celine's honesty was uncomfortable for him.

[SoCalDemGrrl]

15. Anyone hear Bill Clinton right B4 Celine??

God he was embarrassing!! He used to be my hero, now he seems to tow the Bush line.. so sad...

[CoffeeCat]

18. I know....I heard it too.

I don't know what to make of Clinton. I really don't.

He did say that the erosion of the wetlands played a part in the disaster.

However, he did say that the most important thing was the immediate crisis, and that questions about the levies and if this could have been prevented--will be answered later.

If he is towing the BushCo line--it is really sad.

I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for a couple of weeks. I expect him to start speaking the truth, or else I'll consider him a casualty of the war BushCo started on America.

[VolcanoJen]

14. I was never a fan. I am one now.

She just broke my heart all over again.

She gets it. She really gets it. Says her $1 million check means nothing because those people need water.

Voice of an angel. May the suffering find some comfort in her gift.

GODDAMMIT now I'm crying again, too. :cry:

[expatriot]

22. I never thought Celine singing would make me cry. Jesus. nt

[hickman1937]

21. She's got a voice from God,

I've never understood why she gets slammed, and Whitney Houston get's a pass.
