Celine Dion at the Grevin Museum On February 6
Celine Dion will forever be a part of the Grevin Museum with the unveiling of her wax statue. An exclusive preview presentation will take place on Sunday, February 5 during Michel Drucker's show, "Vivement Dimanche."
The opportunity to immortalize international superstar Celine Dion has been Grevin Museum's long-time dream. Celine and Rene welcomed the museum team in Las Vegas in May 2005 when the necessary measurements and photos were taken in order to create the statue. In October 2005, while in Paris promoting her latest CD, Celine and Rene Angelil approved the work of art and Celine was photographed with the statue.
Thibault Vabre, make-up artist to the stars and Celine's friend, worked with Grevin's make-up artist to give direction on the final details of the statue. The 'Parisian' statue will be dressed in the extravagant, white embroidered outfit that Celine wore during her two shows at the Stade of France in 1999.
The Celine Dion statue will be unveiled on February 6, 2006 in the Grevin Museum Theatre. Special guests will include Michel Drucker, Charles Aznavour, Henri Salvador and many other famous people from show business, politics, sport, literature and history.
The official unveiling of the second statue, which will remain on display at The Colosseum at Caesar's Palace, will take place in Las Vegas in May 2006. This will be Grevin's premiere on American soil. The statue will be in Las Vegas in time for the benefit show celebrating the 500th performance of A New Day...
On Monday February 6, Grevin will give Celine fans the magical opportunity to be photographed "at her side."
