Here is a shocking list of celebrities the same age as Céline Dion

Ah Céline, the sweet songstress of French speaking Canada whose music has long been the go-to last minute gift for your mother or any other woman who you have unconsciously categorized as perpetually uncool.

In celebration of her new future drag queen anthem dropping this week we’ve decided to take a look at a great mystery: Céline’s age.

There is something shocking about learning she is only 45 years old. No, you think, she’s at least in her mid fifties. Actually, believe it or not, she was only 28 years old when she was singing the theme to Titanic.

Perhaps it is the fact that her husband is 26 years her senior that makes you think of her as old. Or maybe her history of making nothing but sensible choices and mid tempo music makes her seem out to pasture. That, and you mom does actually love her, and she’s old too, right?

What is even more mind blowing is that in Hollywood, a land obsessed with youth, so many other 45 year old celebrities seem eternally young. Gwen “Hollaback Girl” Stefani is a mere 18 month younger than Céline who was busy releasing an Anne Geddes babies-in-flowers lullaby album while Stefani was singing Rich Girl with Harajuku Girls and Eve.

Here are some of Céline’s other shocking contemporaries.
