Top-selling Canadian chanteuse Celine Dion may have a handful of appearances in music #92;documentaries to her credit, including George Martin's Beatles cover project In My Life (1998), but she is better known cinematically as the voice of several enormously popular movie #92;ballads. She sang the Oscar-winning theme of Disney's animated hit Beauty and the Beast (1991) with Peabo Bryson and her rendition of "Because You Loved Me" for Up Close & Personal (1996) became a bestseller. Dion's career as movie vocalist hit a record-breaking apex when composer James Horner enlisted her to sing the kind of love #92;ballad director James Cameron had expressly nixed for his #92;romance disaster epic Titanic (1997). Cameron relented when he heard the result and Dion's performance of eventual Best Song Oscar-winner "My Heart Will Go On" became as king-size a hit as Cameron's blockbuster film in 1998 (and eclipsed her vocalizing for the animated Quest for Camelot (1998)). Dion took a career hiatus in 1999 to start a family with her husband/manager. ~ Lucia Bozzola, All Movie Guide
