The day after the Oscars, Celine launched her second English-language album on The Tonight Show. On March 30, 1992, her 24th birthday, Celine sang with Peabo during the Oscars broadcast. "Beauty and the Beast", performed as a duet by Celine and Peabo Bryson, hit #1 on charts worldwide, winning a Grammy Award and an Academy Award. With her career unfolding like a fairytale, the singer made her own American dream come true thanks to the theme song for a Walt Disney film. In the autumn of 1991, she launched the album Dion chante Plamondon, certified gold on the day of its release.
At Canada’s Juno Awards, recognizing the finest in Canadian music, she won the Juno for Album of the Year and Female Vocalist of the Year. She was welcomed to The Tonight Show by host Jay Leno, who predicted she would go on to an extraordinary career. Certified gold in the U.S., the single "Where Does My Heart Beat Now" reached #5 on the charts. In 1990, she successfully entered the American market with her first album in English, Unison. That moment was the beginning of her global conquest.

In 1988, in Dublin, Ireland, she won the prestigious Eurovision contest before an audience of 600 million TV viewers. It was the first album produced with her new record label, CBS, which would become Sony Music the same label as Michael Jackson. Incognito sold over half a million copies. Celine was no longer a child singer – she was the voice of her time.
The title track was written by Luc Plamondon, a talented lyricist in tune with his era. When she returned, her audience met a Celine transformed, more solid than ever, having perfectly mastered English, topping the charts with the album marking her metamorphosis: Incognito. Would she be forgotten like so many child stars before her, never able to recapture the success of their debut? In fact, the opposite was true. An artist on the rise, Celine withdrew from live performance for 18 months.
And then, she and her manager decided the time was right to take a break.
