Celine Dion’s husband and manager, Rene Angelil, will be coming to a TV near you.

At least in Quebec.

According to CTV.ca, Angelil has agreed to coach aspiring singers on the French version of Canadian Idol, Star academie.

The show will air on the French network, TVA.

The show will travel to various parts of Quebec as well as Ontario and New Brunswick in search of the next French singing sensation.

Celine Dion is reportedly slated to appear on the show.

Celine Dion has cancelled her upcoming concert in Halifax because of negative comments made about her in the Halifax Daily News.

Columnist David Rodenhiser called Dion’s show a “letdown,” but also made positive comments on her impressive career. Negative responses from the public on the newspaper’s web site may have been the last straw for thin-skinned Dion and her husband/manager, Rene Angélil.

The official reason for the cancellation is that the Halifax Common was not an appropriate venue for Dion’s extravagant stage show. But in a radio interview, Angélil said that he and Celine felt that the public didn’t want them there.

“Don’t try to find any reasons for cancelling the concert. There’s only one reason and you know what it is. I’m not saying that all people in Halifax are negative, but … this is a question of feeling. We’re humans. If you would go to a city and you read day after day … ‘This is not the place for you, you shouldn’t have come, I expected someone else,’ I don’t know how you would feel about going there.”

The concert was scheduled for August, so there’s lots of time for Dion and Angélil to change their minds.
