- 8 years ago
Céline Dion gathered the strength to speak at her late husband René Angélil's celebration of life ceremony Wednesday at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.
Although the "Power of Love" songstress originally had no plans to talk or perform during the event, Dion changed her mind at the last minute.
"This is my home away from home," a tearful Dion said.
"At the same time I'm supposed to feel extremely comfortable being home and right now I'm not sure how comfortable I feel."
She also made a point to thank those who had paid tribute to Angélil, saying, "I feel his love in this room.
I feel his strength and his warmth being reflected in all of you.
René always surrounded me with the best people who believed in us and always worked so hard on our behalf."
