Celine Dion Does Not “Do” Australian Air

With every passing day we’re starting to realise how much we actually love Celine Dion. A cursory glance through Defamer Australia’s history will reveal as much, but she’s just so lovably crazy we want to eat her up with a spoon!

And her first few moments in Australia (on tour) are no exception to the rule, getting about like Michael Jackson (though we’re not sure whether it’s to stop her from infecting everyone else, or vice versa):

Celine Dion brought back memories of the SARS days on the Gold Coast yesterday, appearing in a medical mask when leaving her luxury hotel with husband Rene Angelil and son Rene-Charles.

The French-Canadian warbler has angered fans by postponing her Brisbane concert, due to a throat infection and “irritated sinuses”.

Oh Celine! You had us at It’s All Coming Back To Me Now.

Speaking of which, some mid-afternoon power balladry for you, after the jump! Motorcycles! Lightning! Possibly excessive use of wind machines! Enjoy!
