Qui est cette femme? We almost didn't recognize Céline Dion!
Alongside Awkwafina, Christy Turlington,Lakeith Stanfield and Alicia Keys,Céline is one of five celebs dubbed 2019 BazaarIcons covering the September issue of Harper’sBazaar. The legendary artist decided to use the appearance to sport a short and sleek bowl wig with a dark hue.
The look is a serious departure from the long, light lockswe’re used to seeing on the “Power of Love” singer, but wehave to say we’re digging it! The edgy pick seems to echo many of theother trendsetting sartorial choices the star has made of late.
Céline cemented her status as a fashion iconin July, when she attended Paris Fashion Weekand wore everything from opera gloves in the hot, hot heat to a giant yellowtutu. She also casually wandered the streets of the City of Lights in a Chanelleotard. And why not? She’s Céline!

In a podcast interview with Dan Wooton, the Québec-nativespoke candidly about her love of couture and changing her look.
“I’m doing this for me. I want to feel strong- I want to feel strong, beautiful, feminine, fierce and sexy… You don’t haveto always be the same and you cannot please everyone all the time,” she said.

She continued, “Sometimes people will say,‘Whoa, whoa, whoa. That was maybe a little much.’ People won’t like everything,but if I like [it] - I don’t wanna talk about it. They can just cross it. Don’tbother. Don’t take a picture…If you like [it], I’ll be there. If you don’t,leave me alone.”
The “My Heart Will Go On” singer alsoacknowledged she’s enjoyed embracing fashion over the past few years.
“[Fashion has] always been a part of me, butthe way that we used to work before was maybe more conservative... At 50 yearsold, it’s not to try to take the chances. It’s what I want to wear. I want towear whatever I want, I wanna do whatever I choose to be."
