Celine Dion unknowingly photobombed a fanâs proposal on Friday, and her reaction to the surprise was simply perfect.
Nick Janevski scored backstage passes and a meet-and-greet with Dion for his girlfriend Austin McMillan, who is a huge fan of the âMy Heart Will Go Onâ singer, before her residency show at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. When it was their turn to meet the star, Janevski got down on one knee and popped the question right in front of Queen Celine herself.
âCeline Dion is about the only person I wouldnât mind photobombing the pictures of our proposal,â McMillan wrote on Instagram. âIâm still floating around in the clouds over here feeling like itâs a dream!! My heart is so happy!!â
McMillan told Cosmopolitan that she was âcompletely shockedâ â so much so that she was actually left speechless.
âI didnât even say âyesâ [right away]. Thatâs why [Dionâs] face was like that,â she said. âWe were taking a picture and all of a sudden he gets down on one knee. I froze. I didnât say anything, I just smiled. Two minutes went by and she got really nervous â she hid behind a curtain! She was like, âThis is embarrassing.â I just kissed him.â
The bride-to-be said the whole thing was âkind of a blurâ but that her idol was super sweet.
âMy mom raised me listening to Celine because she is a big fan of hers too!â McMillan told The Huffington Post. âIt was incredible to meet her in real life. She is so sweet and genuine and hilarious!â
âShe said that she wished us a long and happy marriage like she had with her husband,â the bride-to-be told Cosmopolitan. âShe complimented my ring and also asked if she could come to the wedding.â
When Celine asks if she can come to your wedding, the answer is always a resounding, âHELL YES!â
