Celine Dion fans are getting twenty new original videos celebrating her work today (September 23).
For the United Nations’ International Day of Sign Language, the team behind Dion’s 2024 documentary I Am: Celine Dion has released new videos on YouTube that feature American Sign Language (ASL) interpretations of the film’s soundtrack.
ASL performing artist Angela “AV” Vilavong interprets Redi Hasa’s original score for the film, as well as the popular songs of Dion herself, bringing a whole new dimension to hits like “My Heart Will Go On” and “River Deep, Mountain High.” Vilavong’s interpretations also include LSQ, the sign language used by members of Canadian Francophone communities.
“I’m so touched to have this special chance to share these incredible videos with you. It means the world to me to find new ways for us to connect with each other, in a way that’s open and inclusive,” Dion says of the new videos. “My hope is that these videos shine a light on the beauty of creating music for everyone, and that they fill your heart with joy, love, and a rhythm that brings us all closer together.”
