Because doing a Vegas residency is something pretty common.

If she didn't say that, I wouldn't give that to you; it would be like saying Mariah was impacted by Britney's residency.

Marilyn Monroe is an acting icon. When you talk about her you talk about her image.
Thus, Britney is an icon.
Celine is a Legend.
Beyoncé is a legend-in-the-making, if not already a legend.

That's the thing though. No one ever talks about Céline.

Her voice and her music have no personality. They're lifeless, at least to me.

I mean she's one of the acts on my "dive for the remote" list, but her stats are remarkable. She is kind of like a Cream of Wheat iconic -- bland and completely flavorless, but still a staple for so many that you just can't not acknowledge how she is viewed even if you don't care about her music.

Are you insinuating that beyonce and britney spears need to keep their clothes on to be a legend? It's almost like you're calling them ****s. They just love their body and still perform for their fans.

Who cares? At the end of the day My Heart Will Go On had more impact and is bigger than any Britney song.

You went to all these places and did a survey on Celine Dion?

 stop trolling.
Celine is known by pretty much everyone in France  Like, she has so much French classics there's no way someone would tell you they haven't heard of her

I swear. "Goodbye's (The Saddest Word)" is like their national anthem... don't get me started on "A New Day Has Come"

No one talks about Katharine Hepburn much anymore, doesn't take away her legend status.

She is a legend and you all will deal with that. She has so many classics, her Taking Chances Tour is one of the most successful by a female and she also has sold more albums than our faves.
