[Watch] Celine Dion Lips her way through Strictly Come Dancing Performance of "Breakaway"



Celine Dion was preaching to that key demo with her appearance on Strictly Come Dancing this weekend. Smart lady!

Moving on from promoting the single Loved Me Back to Life, The Canadian Diva brought the ballad Breakaway to the United Kingdom's shores. Though lipping to the gorgeous song, the singer looked flawless in black, compensating for the lack of voice by serving up as much dramatics as she could muster from a static position- which was quite a bit, apparently.

But I'm not even mad at Celine for lipping. I wouldn't have wasted my time, or precious voice, when those two were dancing in front of me, grabbing focus! Dion demands all our attention, damn it!

Still, love the song.

  1. Always a shame when she decides to lip but at least when she decides not to, she delivers..

  2. I have no doubt she could have sung the song with ease, if she wanted.

  3. I'm not, necessarily, a fan of Celine nor have I ever been but from the live performances of hers which I have watched, I have learnt to be very wary; this is a Woman who has been 'lip-syncing' since 1996.


    Nonetheless, here she is covering "Michael Jackson's - Bad". My, all time, favorite live performance of hers.


    L.M.F.A.O.

  4. Yes, me neither. Which makes it an all the more disappointing decision to lip.

  11. I never liked her voice. There is a nasal thing Sometimes I can't listen to much, this is not saying she is not good but it's my preference her voice is thin and very nasal for my taste.
