Taking Chances Tour - Celine Dion Tickets
Superstar Celine Dion is on a world tour to support her latest album, Taking Chances. Her first English album in over 3 years, Taking Chances features several new songs. It also includes collaborations with other artists such as guitarist Ben Moody, who used to play in the rock band Evanescence. Taking Chances includes the songs "Alone," "Eyes on Me," and "A World to Believe In," along with the title track, "Taking Chances." A Canadian artist, Dion sings in both French, her native language, and English. Dion is famous for her passionate, powerful voice and emotional music. She is one of the top selling artists in the world, selling over 200 million albums throughout her career.
The Taking Chances Tour kicked off on Valentine's Day of 2008 in South Africa. Dion traveled to five continents and 24 countries. She has sung in South Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, America, and Canada. The tour will stop at many venues including the Honda Center in Anaheim, CA, the Toyota Center in Houston, TX, and the Centre Bell in Montreal, QC, a city that was on one of her very first tours.
During the Taking Chances Tour, the amount of Celine Dion tickets sold has topped the charts with record sales and it may set records for the top selling concert tour by a female artist of all time. In 2006, Madonna's Confessions tour grossed nearly 200 million dollars, making it the highest grossing tour for a female artist up to that point. Now Celine Dion is giving Madonna some competition with huge ticket sales. For instance, tickets for the Montreal concert sold out within minutes, setting a record in Canada. Her concerts in Montreal attracted 246,686 fans in eleven shows, with over 22,400 people coming to each show. Dion will visit many other cities in the next few months. Fashion, dance, and color are enhancing the Taking Chances Tour. Concerts in the tour have roughly twenty giant video screens, plus elevators and conveyor belts. Additionally, Dion spices up her show with videos, colorful lighting, and songs in both French and English.

About Celine Dion
Celine Dion was born the youngest of fourteen children on March 30, 1968 in Charlemagne, Quebec. A native Canadian, Celine grew up speaking French. Although her family was poor, Dion lived in a happy and musical home. She dreamed of being a performer from an early age, and composed her first song, "It Was Only a Dream", with help from her mother and brother, when she was just twelve years old. Then one day in late 1981, everything changed. Recording music manager Rene Angelil heard Dion sing, and he immediately focused on making the young performer a star. He was so impressed that he mortgaged his home in order to fund her first record, La Voix du bon Dieu.
The album was an instant success, and Celine Dion quickly became a star in Quebec, her native city. Soon Dion's success spread to other parts of the world as well. She performed and competed in countries such as Japan, France, Australia, and Ireland. When she was eighteen, Dion saw a performance by Michael Jackson, and decided that she wanted to become a star like him. She resolved to learn English, and worked hard to study the new language. In 1990, she released her first English album, Unison. The album was praised by critics, and included the hit songs "(If There Was) Any Other Way," "Unison," and "Where Does My Heart Beat Now." As exemplified in this song, Celine Dion lyrics often discuss love and romance, but also cover other areas as well.
Since breaking into the American music scene, Dion has gained superstardom around the world. Her major breakthrough came when she recorded the theme song to the hit Disney movie Beauty and Beast. The song reached number one on the pop charts and nabbed her both a Grammy and an Academy award. Celine was at the top of her craft, and her popularity only grew when she recorded the theme song to another hit movie, Titanic. The hit song "My Heart Will Go On" from Titanic became the longest charting song of Dion's career. It also helped her albums, such as Let's Talk About Love and These Are Special Times, catapult to the top of the charts. As her career took off, Dion found love and romance. Even though he was 26 years older than her, Celine fell in love with her manager, Rene Angelil. After working together for thirteen years, Rene and Celine got married on December 17, 1994. Their son, René-Charles Dion Angélil, was born in 2001.
In 2002, Celine Dion came back on the scene with the release of A New Day Has Come. Dion was able to recapture and even exceed her previous success. She sold over twelve million copies of the new album. That same year, she announced that she would be performing in Las Vegas at Caesars Palace. The show was called A New Day... and was created by Franco Dragone, who also created Cirque Du Soleil. The show ran for 700 performances and was often sold out.
Since the end of A New Day…, Dion has gone back to the studio, releasing two new albums. The first, D'elles, was released on May 21, 2007, and has since been certified double platinum in Canada. Celine's latest English album is Taking Chances, on November 7, 2007. The album has been a hit, selling three-and-a-half million units worldwide and reaching number onr of Canadian charts and number three on U.S. charts. 2007 also saw the release of the Celine Dion greatest hits album My Love: Essential Collection, her first greatest hits album in English. A few months later, in February 2008, Dion embarked on the "Taking Chances" tour in order to promote Taking Chances
