An Unbelievable Life
In 2013, the singer talked to Woman’s Weekly about her journey. “I remember passing down clothes from one sibling to another – I’m the youngest child of 14!” Dion shared. “I had to walk to and from school four times a day often in snowstorms that were quite common in my hometown of Charlemagne in Quebec, Canada.” It was not only a rags to riches story, but an ugly duckling one as well.
Her Insecurities
“Growing up, I used to feel awkward and insecure because I had a problem with my teeth. I remember not feeling my best or looking my best,” she said, “I felt like a real outsider and didn’t have many friends at school. I just wanted to be at home with my brothers and sisters and my parents because that was my most comfortable zone.”
