Celine Dion's unforgettable Las Vegas moments

For more than a decade, Celine Dion has been making history in Las Vegas. Back on Mar. 25 2003, the Canadian songstress said Bonjour to her first residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace, a show that has captivated audiences ever since.
After performing A New Day for three years, Celine left the strip to concentrate on her family. Less than four years later, the mother of three was back doing what she loved most, performing in front of a live audience every night.
Her second show was trying on the songstress, as she struggled to manage her hectic schedule while caring for her ailing husband René Angélil. Following his death in January 2016, many wondered if Celine would ever return to the show that her lifelong partner helped create. In true Celine fashion, the singer insisted that 'The Show Must Go On' and on Feb. 23 2016 she stepped out on stage to start another chapter of her illustrious career.
Here, we look back at some of Celine's unforgettable moments in Las Vegas.
