Here's their comment about Céline: "Charlemagne, Que-born Céline Dion first tasted success when she was just 14, becoming the first Canadian ever to have a record go gold in France.
Now, this small-town girl is one of the world's most recognized musicians. Besides selling a career-spanning 175 million albums worldwide, she has her own fragrance line, has been mentioned
more than 900 times in the press over the last year, and even made an appearance on the hit game show Deal or No Deal in June. There's also her Caesars Palace show in Las
Vegas, where she performs about 150 shows a year, grossing US$80 million in the last 12 months."
"Enchanting", the upcoming Céline Dion's brandnew fragrance, will hit select European countries starting September 1, 2006.
This new scent, released by Coty Beauty Inc., will try to equalize the world-wide success of Céline's previous fragrances: "Céline Dion Parfums", "Notes", "Belong" and "Always Belong"."Enchanting" is an irresistible expression of every woman's ability to fascinate. Its bottle, tall and elegant, is reminiscent of a long, flowing evening gown. Its understated form recalls magical
evenings, where women are at their most beautiful and purely feminine. The stylish carton, adorned with rich gold brocade, evokes a dramatic twilight sky, the start of a glamorous evening filled with
music and romance.
In a stunning photograph taken by Michael Thompson, Céline projects sensuality and the confidence of a woman at the height of her success - exquisitely gowned and wearing a signature
amethyst ring created by H. Stern. Chosen for its mystical properties, the amethyst brings positive energy and success to anyone who wears it.
"I want every woman to realise she has the ability to light up a room ... to fill every inch of her life with fantasy, confidence and splendour," says Céline of her new scent.
"Enchanting captures that magical moment when a woman feels her most beautiful and anything is possible."
Chuck Taylor, senior editor of Radio & Records and singles reviews editor for Billboard, asked Charlie Walk (President of Epic Records Label) about the label's
commitment to Céline Dion as an artist and Walk reaffirmed that commitment. Besides, Chuck Taylor met with Céline and her manager/husband Rene Angelil in Las Vegas last month.
He asked them if they were working on a new project, and neither Céline nor Rene said that anything was in the works.

According to Billboard, Céline's shows from August 10th to Aug. 13th are at the
FOURTH position of last week's Billboard Boxscore Concert Grosses (the chart of concert
grosses in the U.S.A.). Gross Sales: US$ 2,153,029; Shows/ Sellouts: 3 out of 4,
Attend/Capacity: 16,202 out of 16,592. With these shows, Céline's sold-out shows are 388 out of
544 performed shows. The grassroots events are scheduled to take place in several U.S. cities at locales including bowling alleys, malls, racetracks and parks.
All of the events -- along with the 41st annual Jerry Lewis Labor Day Telethon (televised from 9 p.m. ET Sunday, September 3rd, to 6:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 4) --
are intended to help raise funds for research and treatment of the over 40 neuromuscular diseases the Muscular
Dystrophy Association focuses on. Celebrities scheduled to appear on the televised fundraiser include actress Julia Roberts, "Star Trek" and "Boston Legal" star William Shatner, singers
Céline Dion , Patti LaBelle and the Goo Goo Dolls.
Each artist performed live with Tony in studios in New York, Los Angeles and London and for many of these artists this "face to face" approach was a departure from their standard method of
studio recording. Phil Ramone is the producer for this project.
