For Celine Dion, the best is yet to come as she readies Asian tour that includes two dates in Macau

The powerhouse singer is holding court in one of the catacomb of rooms beneath the The Colosseum at Las Vegas’ Caesars Palace, the 4,000-plus seat theatre where she has held a residency since 2003. (Last October, she celebrated her 1,000th show there.)
She is wearing a tea-length dress of silver-shot rose and pewter lace, towering heels; clusters of diamonds line her ears and are draped across her wrists. She looks every inch the superstar songstress, formidably overdressed for a performance-free Wednesday evening when her primary obligation is to talk about her highly anticipated Asian tour this year.
Dion, who is almost 50, will spend a month in Asia from late June, performing at the Venetian Macao on June 29 and 30 after starting the tour in Tokyo, then moving on to Singapore, Jakarta, Taipei, Manila and Bangkok. She last performed in the region in 2008, as part of her year-long global “Taking Chances” world tour.
