Whether you’re a die hard fan or just the sort of person who insists on belting out It’s All Coming Back To Me Now at karaoke after a few too many tequila shots, there’s absolutely no doubting that Céline Dion is not only a household name, but a legend in her own right.

Born in Canada, Céline Dion is one of the most celebrated and admired women in the world (you only have to see how passionate her fan base is to realise how much she’s adored) with an incredible voice – and now L’Oréal Paris have tapped her as the newest global spokeswoman, which means she’ll be joining the likes of Helen Mirren, former Stylist cover star Duckie, Doutzen Kroes and Amber Heard.

The brand described Céline Dion as “A woman of substance known for her renowned accomplishments and extraordinary personality. Resilient, self-confident, unapologetic, generous and humble, she is the ultimate symbol of female empowerment and a true woman of worth.”

And we couldn’t agree more. Whether she’s on stage performing in Vegas or sat front row, crying at fashion week, there’s a little part of Céline in all of us.

Talking about being contacted by L’Oréal and being asked to be a spokesperson, the singer said she never saw it coming. “I thought seriously about it, because, if my name was on it, I wanted to truly believe in it. We, women, are all dealing with a society that is pushing so much. Considering that L’Oréal Paris gives women plenty of tools to feel good, to feel strong, to have a voice, to fulfill themselves and to feel worth it, I was honoured to become a global ambassador for the brand and represent women all around the world.”

Speaking about the collaboration, L’Oréal Paris Global Brand President, Pierre-Emmanuel Angeloglou said, “We have a longstanding history of supporting women in their journey to fulfil themselves according to their own rules and desire. Céline Dion is a woman of innate self-worth – following her heart to achieve success, challenge stereotypes and trailblaze the path for so many other women.”

Céline will make her debut for L’Oreal Paris Hair Color at the end of this month for the newly renovated Excellence franchise, and she’ll be wearing Excellence Crème in shade 7.3.
