Celine Dion has her twins baptized in Las Vegas

Céline Dion, la star québécoise et son mari René Angélil ont organisé en grand, samedi à Las Vegas, le baptême religieux de leurs jumeaux, Eddy et Nelson. Quelques 200 personnes étaient conviées à cette cérémonie qui s’est déroulée à l’église Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton. Deux évêques, Mgr McAuliffe et Mgr John Faraj, ont célébré à deux la cérémonie.

The babies' godparents were thus religiously chosen: Patrick, Jean-Pierre, and Anne-Marie, René Angélil's first children, little René-Charles, and Céline Dion's sister, Linda. After the ceremony, all the guests were invited to a reception held around the prestigious Garden of the Gods Pool Oasis at Caesar's Palace.
For the parents, the arrival of the twins is a true miracle. After years of unsuccessful attempts and six in vitro fertilizations, Céline had finally managed to become pregnant with triplets, but had lost the third baby at the beginning of her pregnancy.

Already a new show in Vegas

The 42-year-old mother is already preparing for a brand-new show that she will perform in Las Vegas starting March 15th. "I'm back in Vegas for three years to perform a new show, which will include a medley in tribute to Michael Jackson and James Bond," she explained.

The first rehearsal of Celine Dion's new show took place yesterday, in front of an audience of 4,000 employees of the luxurious Las Vegas hotel, where she previously performed with great success between 2003 and 2008.
