Vianney is currently promoting his fifth album, “Les Évadés”, which will be released on Friday, November 6. On this occasion and following the triumph of Celine Dion’s concerts near Paris, the French singer was questioned about his past collaboration with the Quebec superstar. He has made no secret of the fact that he does not have good memories of it and that the “collaboration”, in fact, did not exist.
Vianney wrote “Ma force”, released in 2016 on the deluxe edition of Celine Dion’s album “Encore un soir”.
“I love this woman and for me it should be a question of exchange and sharing and that was not the case. I sent a song, but I didn’t even know she sang it. I discovered it on the day of the release,” Vianney explained to “Parisien” on Sunday.
“It wasn’t my best experience,” added the 35-year-old singer who became famous with “Not There.” Vianney repeats that he was honored that Celine Dion chose one of his songs, that it is “truly out of the ordinary”, but clearly did not appreciate the very non-participatory way of working of the star and those around him. And to decide: “It’s not my world. Mine is more artisanal, more collaborative.”
