The audition turned out to be an emotional affair. Celine said that when she sang, Rene actually began to cry! It was then that she knew he liked her performance. Rene then signed her right away, confident that she was going to be famous. He knew that she was only a young girl, so she would have to work hard to launch her career. He had a vision for her and wanted everything to be perfect.

Rene was aware that he had a superstar in Celine. He ended up mortgaging his house to ensure that there was enough funding for her first album. In 1981, her first single flew to the top of the music charts in Canada! Rene is a well-known gambler. While it was a big risk, we are glad that it ended up paying off.
