Cameo by Celine Dion
October 16, 2009
World-famous singer Celine Dion stars in this commercial for St-Hubert, a Canadian restaurant chain that specializes in rotisserie chicken.
I don't know French. I took Spanish in high school. But I think the closing screen is telling us the spot is supporting cystic fibrosis research. I imagine the dialog goes something like this:
Customer: Hey, lady. You kind of look like Celine Dion.
Waitress: Why thank you. I get that all the time at the curling tournaments and hockey games I go to. But actually, Celine Dion is thin and beautiful and working in Las Vegas to support her family. Unless there were some sort of charity involved, she would never eat at this rotisserie-chicken chain.
Celine Dion: That's right!
On second thought, I think she says, "Don't be so sure." Which is much kinder.
Thumbs up to St-Hubert for supporting a good cause and poking fun at themselves and to Celine Dion for supporting a rotisserie-chicken chain!

This is a famous family restaurant in Quebec, Canada. And it's great that Celine did this for Cystic Fibrosis - She's been the celebrity spokesperson for a very long time in Canada because he niece died of this disease. Celine is so sweet!

Thank you for posting! But this is a closer translation:
The waitress says that she gets that alot, it is her hair or her smile, it is the same. Either way, I don't think Celine would be at St Hubert.
Celine "It is still funny"
