Celine Dion, Nag-react Sa Pagiging Jake Zyrus Ni Charice!

International singer Celine Dion gave her full support to Charice Pempengco's transman transition into Jake Zyrus. In a released report, Celine was asked during her media round table in Las Vegas for her concert tour in Asia this 2018 about the new gender identity of Jake Zyrus. The French-Canadian superstar recalled performing with Jake, when she was still Charice in Madison Square Garden in 2008. And until today Celine Dion remembers the moment she brought out Charice, now known as Jake Zyrus, to sing "Because You Loved Me."

"My jaw is still dislocated because the whole arena was, and I remember, she dedicated her song to her mother. So I think, if I may now switch, I'm pretty sure that 'he' remembers dedicating the song to his mother and a big talent," Celine said.

"I just wished him the very, very best. I hope that acceptance is hard but we have to... we cannot start by judging because is there a final answer really? If you feel a certain way, you feel that way. We can talk about it, but this is how you feel, and this is how I feel, but this is how Charice felt, and we have to respect that."

Meantime, Jake Zyrus tweeted his heartfelt thanks to the popular singer and will always remember her kindness towards him.

Céline Marie Claudette Dion, (born 30 March 1968) is a Canadian singer and businesswoman. Born into a large family from Charlemagne, Quebec, Dion emerged as a teen star in the French-speaking world after her manager and future husband René Angélil mortgaged his home to finance her first record. Dion first gained international recognition in the 1980s by winning both the 1982 Yamaha World Popular Song Festival and the 1988 Eurovision Song Contest where she represented Switzerland. Following a series of French albums during the 1980s, she signed on to Epic Records in the United States. In 1990, Dion released her debut English-language album, Unison, establishing herself as a viable pop artist in North America and other English-speaking areas of the world.

During the 1990s, with the help of Angélil, she achieved worldwide fame after releasing several English albums along with additional French albums. Her albums, Falling into You (1996) and Let's Talk About Love (1997), were both certified diamond in the US while D'eux (1995) became the best-selling French-language album of all time. She also scored a series of international number-one hits, including "The Power of Love", "Think Twice", "Because You Loved Me", "It's All Coming Back to Me Now", "My Heart Will Go On", and "I'm Your Angel".
