Recalling a heartbreaking conversation the pair, who have sons Nelson, Eddy, and Rene-Charles together, shared about René’s wishes, Céline told USA Today: “I’ll say, ‘You’re scared? I understand. Talk to me about it’.

“And René says to me, ‘I want to die in your arms’. OK, fine, I’ll be there, you’ll die in my arms.”

Céline has been married to her former manager since 1994, and explained that it was her husband who encouraged her to return to Las Vegas to do what she loves - performing.

Céline, 47, revealed: “Don’t forget, he’s been the leader of the band all my life. So it [hacks] him off to not see me all day and over here working. But he wants me to do this, do the show, do the interviews. But he freaks when I’m not home with him, too.

“I didn’t want to be here at first, I don’t need it. Don’t get me wrong, I love singing for people, but I have priorities. But René really gave me a gift.

“All my grieving, it was during this last year. I think I’ve got this. For now. When it hits me, it’s going to hit me. But my biggest job is to tell my husband, we’re fine. I’ll take care of our kids. You’ll watch us from another spot.”

She added that her first show will be “fragile,” admitting: “There will be moments of emptiness, laughter, awkwardness, tearing up. But that’s the point of coming back—otherwise, I just release an album.”

Returning to Vegas isn’t just about a return to performing for Céline though, who explained that wants to show René that she’s there for him.

She said: “When you see someone who is fighting so hard, it has a big impact on you. You have two choices. You look at your husband who’s very sick and you can’t help, and it kills you. Or you look at your husband that’s sick and you say, ‘I got you. I got it. I’m here. It’s going to be just fine’.

“You can have your shaking knees at the end, but when someone you love falls and needs help, it’s not time to cry. Afterwards, sure. But not yet.”

Watch the sizzling trailer of Madhur Bhandarkar's 'Calendar Girls'

The sizzling trailer of Madhur Bhandarkar's 'Calendar Girls' was released on Tuesday. The two-and-a-half minute trailer follows the lives of five fashion models and highlights the glamorous and the ugly side of the modelling industry

Bhandarkar, known for his female-oriented films, has always worked with established actors, but this time the director will be launching five new faces in the movie: Kyra Dutt, Akanksha Puri, Avani Modi, Satarupa Pyne and Ruhi Singh

What made SRK cancel plans of hosting a party at his place?

If sources are to be believed, Shah Rukh Khan had invited Karan Johar along with his 'Shaandaar' cast for dinner at Mannat last week, but he had to call it off at the last minute. Reason? He apparently could not manage to squeeze time out of his hectic shoot schedule.

A source says, "Karan was supposed to go over to SRK's place with 'Shaandaar' director Vikas Bahl and lead pair, Shahid Kapoor and Alia Bhatt, after the film's first trailer was unveiled. It was not any celebration as such, but a quiet gathering. However, he had to cancel the plans at the very last minute due to his tight schedule."

It is said that the actor is currently wrapping up his Christmas release, 'Dilwale', and 'Fan' as well.

While the star was not available for comment, a source close to the actor denies the buzz saying, "Shah Rukh keeps calling his friends over for dinner whenever he is in town, so this was nothing special or exclusive. However, he is extremely busy these days and shooting non-stop. He has no time to host any party and so, these rumours are not true. If he had really invited someone, he would have definitely adjusted his schedule."

"I don't know from where this report came in. Once the film is released, people will know there cannot be a scene like that in the film," Bhandarkar said.

'Calendar Girls' features newcomers Akanksha Puri, Avani Modi, Kyra Dutt and Ruhi Singh, among others.

A source from the team also stressed that Bhandarkar "is known for certain kind of cinema and these reports about a nude scene being in the trailer is completely untrue".

"There is no such scene in the film at first place. There was a small change that was asked to be made in the trailer for a U/A certificate, so that the trailer can be played on television. That was of a shot of a photoshoot of one of the calendar girls under the sea.

Producer Sangeeta Ahir, "being a woman, green-lighted the project because she liked the fact that the film is about women empowerment, their struggle and courage. It is in fact emotional journey of five girls", the source added.

Amber Rose Wrongfully Caught Up In Alleged Prostitution Scam

A California company is being accused of using Amber Rose to lure aspiring models into prostitution. According to TMZ, Los Angeles police have launched an investigation into the alleged internet scam.

After viewing an ad on Instagram, the models thought Amber was the person selecting which one women would participate in a photo shoot. Rose does not appear to be directly involved in the situation.

The company also used an old video of Amber to make it appear the women were video conferencing with thecelebrity. As the models called in, the footage would begin to break up and then eventually end.

One victim filed a report with the LAPD claiming the company attempted to set the women up with wealthy men. Then the models were asked if they would be willing to have sex with the men. The potential of getting placed on bigger projects was the incentive to sleep with their “dates.”
