Céline Dion Delivers Tearful Tribute To Late Husband At The Billboard Music Awards
‘I want to be so strong for my family and my kids and I don’t want to cry but you make me so happy – thank you.’
Our hearts go on and out to Céline Dion
Four months after losing her husband René Angélil to a long battle with cancer, the star was honored with the Billboard Icon Award, and breaks down in tears during a touching acceptance speech.
Amidst tears, the 48-year-old singer reached out to thank those who’ve helped her along the way.
“I want to thank Lindsey Stirling for sharing her wonderful talent with us tonight. This is such a tremendous honor. Of course music has been my passion before I can remember. So many people have helped me get where I am today.”
“And most importantly my beloved husband who I know will continue to watch over me from above. Thank you Billboard Music Awards for honoring me.
Celine Dion has had a hard 2016, losing both her husband Rene Angelil and her brother Daniel to cancer within two days of each other back in January.
In her first major appearance since those tragic deaths, Dion was honored Sunday (May 22) with the 2016 Billboard Music Awards ICON Award, with an introduction by Seal.
“Icon — it’s a word that conjures up visions of someone deserving of our complete respect and admiration, a person who we look at with awe.
In the past, only a select few performers have received the Billboard ICON Award, legends like Neil Diamond, Stevie Wonder, Prince,” says Seal.
“And now a new name joins their ranks, a singer whose career sets the standard of excellence that all of us aspire to.”
American violinist, dancer, performance artist, singer and composer Lindsey Stirling is ready to start the promotion of her third studio album “Brave Enough“, due out on August 19th via her own imprint Lindseystomp Records.
The first official single is the song “The Arena“, which was released along the pre-order of the album on iTunes on June 28th.
The same day, the singer also premiered the music video to support this new single and first taste of this new era.
After teasing the release of her forthcoming third studio album, Lindsey Stirling has dropped the first single in June 28, titled “The Arena.”
The music is noticeably more powerful and poignant than a lot of her previous work, making use of strong drum work and more electronic influence in the bassline and backing synths.
The music video also works to present a stronger Lindsey Stirling herself, as the concept of an “arena” and the motif of a post-apocalyptic wasteland battleground are surely settings in which only the strong survive.
The album: Brave Enough.
We ALL are connected through MUSIC!!
Lindsey’s dance partner in the video is also a professional dancer and has appeared on Dancing With The Stars, Derek Hough.
The album, entitled Brave Enough, is now available for pre-order and will release on August 19.
I strongly believe that ALL are entitled to their religious beliefs and set of spiritual rules. All of us hold some sort of road map to navigate through life as best as we can.
I hold my own personal set.
In no way do I intend to impose any set of beliefs on anyone.
I think this is a beautiful video and a good representation of what Christmas really is.
My intention is to share this wonderful musical video from Lindsey Stirling.
Her statements at the end are her personal beliefs.
Unrecognizable Lindsey Stirling shares talents, testimony in new ‘Hallelujah‘ video
A contribution to the LDS Church’s “12 Days of Social” campaign came from dancing violinist Lindsey Stirling. The video shows a disguised Stirling performing “Hallelujah” in a subway station, where no one recognizes her or acknowledges the Nativity scene she has placed on the ground in front of her.
Intermixed with the subway scenes, the video also shows clips of Stirling meeting fans throughout the world. At the end of the video, the camera zooms in on the Nativity scene and poses the question, “Do you see the gift?”
Stirling, who has been open about a battle with anorexia, concludes the video by sharing memories of her personal struggle with self-worth and how her knowledge of Jesus Christ has helped her.

I pirouette in the dark
I see the stars through a mirror
Tired mechanical heart
Beats ’til the song disappears
Somebody shine a light
I’m frozen by the fear in me
Somebody make me feel alive
And shatter me
So cut me from the line
Dizzy, spinning endlessly
Somebody make me feel alive
And shatter me
Shatter me!
Somebody make me feel alive
And shatter me
If only the clockwork could speak
I wouldn’t be so alone
We’d burn every magnet and spring
And spiral into the unknown
If I break the glass then I’ll have to fly
There’s no one to catch me if I take a dive
I’m scared of change and the days stay the same
The world is spinning but only in gray
If I break the glass then I’ll have to fly
There’s no one to catch me if I take a dive
I’m scared of change and the days stay the same
The world is spinning but only in gray
(Only…)
Me…!
Shatter me!
Somebody make me feel alive
And shatter me!

Lindsey Stirling: New Album ‘Shatter Me’ Will “Explain My Journey”
On April 29th, Lindsey Stirling released Shatter Me, her second full-length album. The dancing violinist, who has 4.6 million subscribers on her main channel, is one of YouTube’s most illustrious creators, and Shatter Me will feature the dubstep violin style that has helped her become so popular.
At the same time, Shatter Me will be a step into new territory for Stirling. We caught up with her at her album release party at YouTube Space LA , where she explained how she “dug pretty deep for this album just to express my journey.” The result is a “full album that told a story” and an expression of her Status as an independent artist and “free spirit.”
In contrast to her debut album, for which Stirling claims “there was no plan,” Shatter Me is the culmination of a long creative process. “For the last eight months, I’ve been blood, sweat, and tears, just working nonstop and thinking nonstop about this album,” she explained. Part of this creative process has involved releasing specific songs as “singles” instead of “a YouTube video for every song.” Thus far, two music videos (filmed at YouTube Space LA) have been released. The second single (following “Beyond the Veil“) is “Shatter Me“, a title track with an accompanying video that brings the album’s themes into full view.
Beautiful Times is a song by American electronica project Owl City. It features guest performance from American dubstep-violinist Lindsey Stirling.
The song was released to digital download on April 8, 2014 as the first single from Owl City’s EP, Ultraviolet.
Owl City is an American electronica project created in 2007 in Owatonna, Minnesota; it is one of several projects by singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Adam Young. Young created the project while experimenting with music in his parents’ basement. Owl City developed a following on the social networking site MySpace, like many musicians who achieved success in the late 2000’s, before signing with Universal Republic Records, now Republic Records, in 2008.
After two independent releases, Owl City gained mainstream popularity with the 2009 major label debut album Ocean Eyes, which includes the six-time platinum single “Fireflies“. The album was certified platinum in the United States in April 2010.
In June 2011, Owl City released its third studio album, All Things Bright and Beautiful, which was followed by The Midsummer Station in August 2012. Owl City has also recorded songs for several animated films, including Legend of the Guardians: The Owls of Ga’Hoole, Wreck-It Ralph, The Croods and The Smurfs 2.
