LONDON - Celine Dion has penned an impassioned profile about Lady Gaga star for Time magazine after she made the publication's 100 Most Influential People in the World for 2019 list.
The French-Canadian singer wrote: "I love Lady Gaga, and I think she's got one of the greatest voices in the world: powerful, convincing, passionate and sensitive. She's definitely one of the most inventive artists we've ever seen. Her artistic expression has no rules, no boundaries. When she first came on the scene with her outrageous style, she didn't care what the critics said.
She continued: "What makes her even more special, and such a powerful influence on society is that she empowers her fans to adopt the very same values in their lives - to stand up for what they believe in, despite what others might think. By doing so, she gives her followers the strength and confidence to believe in themselves. Whether it's her unstoppable support for the LGBTQ community or her anti-bullying campaigning, Lady Gaga's voice is being heard where it really counts.
