Rene-Charles Angelil: Internet Crushes HARD on Celine Dion"s Son
He’s still quite young, but that didn’t stop viewers at the 2016 Billboard Music Awards from oogling Celine Dion’s son, Rene-Charles Angelil.
The 15-year-old surprised his mother on stage at last night, and handed her the Billboard Icon Award.
Dion teared up, and held his hand. That, combined with her emotional performance of Queen’s “The Show Must Go On” was almost too much for her.
Dion lost her husband, producer Rene Angelil back in January after a battle with throat cancer, and Queen’s song was one of his favorites
“I’m sorry for crying,” she told the audience as she held her son’s hand.. “I want to be so strong in front of my family and my kids
Backstage, Dion admitted that the night had been an emotional challenge.
“To try to perform that song without collapsing was big enough,” she told Entertainment Tonight after, “and then I turned around and I saw my son. As a mother, I really, through this whole process of our new life, wanted to be strong.”
As Dion poured her heart out to the audience, viewers at home got a little pervvy with their tweets, commenting on her son’s good looks.
‘Celine Dion’s son is freeeeaking hot!!” one tweeted.
“i just found out that celine dion’s son is 15 i feel like such a predator rn omg,” another wrote.
#Fact
The rest of the peanut gallery comments were a bit like this:
“Celine Dion’s son IS FIIIIIINE oh my god.”
“Celine dion’s son helloooooooo How is Celine Dion’s son only 15 years old?”
Angelil has proven to be an exceptional young man. He delivered a touching eulogy at his father’s funeral in January.
“Fifteen years is not a long time for a son to get to know his father … [but] you left me now with enough good memories of you to share with my younger brothers,” the young man said.
“As I grow older, without you being around, I’ll make sure to pass on what I’ve learned from you.”
Brace yourself, kiddo. The ladies like what they see.

Celine Dion"s Husband, René Angélil Dies of Throat Cancer
Today, Celine Dion’s reps confirmed that her husband, Rene Angelil has died.
“Rene Angelil, 73, passed away this morning at his home in Las Vegas after a long and courageous battle against cancer,” Dion’s team said in a statement to People.
“The family requests that their privacy be respected at the moment.”
Angelil has battled the disease three times since 1999; he had surgery on his throat in 2014 to remove a tumor when the cancer returned a second time.
Angelil and Dion married in a spectacular Quebec wedding ceremony in 1994, and renewed their vows in 2000 in Las Vegas.
Dion had gone into semi-retirement in order to look after her husband, who was about 26 years her senior.
“We have asked [doctors] many times, how long does he have, three weeks, three months? René wants to know,” Dion told USA Today this past August.
“But they say they don’t know.”
Dion recalled her husband’s request to “die” in her arms.
“Okay, fine, I’ll be there,” she recalled telling him. “You’ll die in my arms.”
Dion has remained remarkably strong throughout.
“You can have your shaking knees at the end, but when someone you love falls and needs help, it’s not time to cry,” she told the newspaper.
“Afterwards, sure. But not yet.”
The music manger is survived by Dion, his sons Rene-Charles, 14, twins Nelson and Eddy, 5, as well as three grown children from a previous marriage, Anne-Marie, Patrick and Jean-Pierre.
