On the occasion of the release of her new album, Bashung repertoire, Isabelle Boulay gave a interview on RTL. The Canadian singer has also wanted to talk about Celine Dion. Indeed, the iconic singer of Titanic recently announced that she had a extremely rare disease. This pathology causes him painful muscle spasms and makes his daily life very difficult.
“Recently I was diagnosed with very rare neurological disorder which is called in English, ‘Stiff-person syndrome’ [le syndrome de l’homme raide (SHR), en français] who reaches one in a million people. We do not yet know everything about this rare disease, but we know that it is the cause of the muscle spasms I suffer from. These spasms affect my everyday life on many levels. I have trouble walking and can’t use my vocal cords to sing as I would like. It saddens me enormously to tell you today that I will not be not ready to start my tour in Europe in February. ” Celine Dion
Unfortunately, following medical advice, Celine Dion must cancel one by one the dates of his tour. A news that saddened the fans but which especially panicked them. Indeed, they are very worried about the singer.
Isabelle Boulay expresses her support for Celine Dion
Isabelle Boulay took advantage of her presence at RTL to show her support. She held on to talk about Celine Dion’s situation and sent her words of support. « I am extremely compassionate. She’s a very strong girl. She has went through very difficult ordeals, she lost her mother, she lost her husband. They were his biggest pillars. I think it must have gotten to her more than she realizes. She’s a girl who always knew triumph over everything and who has immeasurable strength. »
Very compassionate towards her colleague, Isabelle Boulay showed herself full of hope and positivity. « I have a lot of affection for her, of tenderness, of admiration also because there are few, very few, singers in the world who have succeeded in doing what she did. All I wish for him is to find the right support… And me, I’m quite convinced that she will come back from all that. She needs time to heal. But it will be even more beautiful when she comes back. “Words filled with tenderness and sincerity.
Singing Bashung: a dream come true
Isabelle Boulay has on her side granted one of these wishes by producing this album. This idea appeared when she turned 50 in July 20022, when she wondered what to do to Excel.
“I said to myself, what is the most demanding repertoire for me? Whose is the highest fence I could jump over? And I thought of Bashung. What if I offered myself Bashung? Go ahead, Isabelle, go ahead! »Isabelle Boulay.
The singer has hesitated a long time before embarking on this crazy adventure. However, the desire was too strong and Dupont-Moretti’s companion gave in: ” I dared not, I told myself that it was not feasible. That it wasn’t for me. For whom could it be Bashung, if not for Bashung? But in the state I was in in 2022, I really wanted something strong. Want to want, as Johnny sang. »
The album will be available on next march 17and the beautiful redhead will therefore be Quebec tour starting April 22, 2023.
