In addition to the rap segment, Dion also spoke to DeGeneres about the death of her husband, René Angélil, who died in January of this year.

“It’s part of our life and life has imposed this on him. That was his destiny and I still feel extremely fortunate that he has given me three magnificent children. Wonderful pieces of luggage,” she joked. “As an artist to feel confident and to have experience enough and to keep going. And I‘m well because he’s not suffering anymore. Because the hardest thing is not to lose somebody you love but to see them suffer.

“So for me to know that he is in a place where he doesn’t suffer anyone makes me feel way better and second thing I’ve feel extremely fortunate as a mother that, it’s probably the thing I’m the most proud of and how I prepared my children for how to live with dad,” she continued. “How to live with him without his presence.”
