Céline Dion
Canada, 1981–now
Québécoise singer (b. 1968), among the best-selling artists in history. Rising from French-language stardom in Quebec to global pop dominance ('The Power of Love', 'Because You Loved Me', the Titanic anthem 'My Heart Will Go On'), her soaring, powerhouse voice made her the definitive balladeer of the 1990s.
