CELINE DION Is A Heavy Metal Fan
Powerhouse pop singer Celine Dion, who has made her name and her
fortune with sweet ballads about love, has revealed to Australia's
The Sunday Telegraph that she is a closet heavy metal fan.
So much so that her warm-up song while doing sound checks is almost
invariably the AC/DC belt-it-out classic "Thunderstruck".
"I like hard rock and, if I'm doing stadiums, I want the engineers
to crank the sound system up high with rock and roll, heavy metal
music it helps me to get the adrenalin rushing," she said.
"I've been a big fan of AC/DC for about 15 years or 20 years the
sound guys introduced me to them (their music)."
Dion previously covered the AC/DC classic "You Shook Me All Night
Long" as a duet with Anastacia on the VH1 CD/DVD release "Divas Las
Vegas 2002", out via Sony Music. Watch video footage of the
performance below.
