TORONTO: December 20, 2007:   Céline Dion has captured another number one spot with the release of her DVD Céline Dion - A New Day: Live In Las Vegas. This deluxe five hour double-DVD set commemorating the historic five-year sold-out run of Céline Dion’s attendance record-breaking Las Vegas concert extravaganza arrived in stores on Tuesday, December 11 and has been flying off the shelves ever since selling almost 100,000 copies. This #1 debut on the Music Video chart marks the biggest sales week in Nielsen SoundScan history for a DVD only release.

 

This latest #1 SoundScan debut follows the #1 debut of Céline’s Taking Chances which achieved the top position on both the Nielsen SoundScan Top 200 and Digital Album Charts. 2007 also saw her French-language album, D’elles, debut at number one, garnering Céline the two highest sales entries in Canada (for two different albums) so far this year - an unprecedented achievement in Canadian SoundScan history.

 

This comprehensive 2 DVD set includes Céline’s complete Las Vegas spectacular in its entirety, featuring 18 songs and 90 minutes of music filmed in breath-taking state-of-the-art high definition.  The second disc contains bonus features with revelatory behind-the-scenes footage and highlights drawn from the historic five year run including three documentary features:  “Because You Loved Me - A Tribute to the Fans”; “A New Day - All Access,” 12 hours in the life of Céline as she creates that day’s performance, from leaving home to soundcheck, to a night vision view of the show from her unique backstage perspective; and “A New Day - The Secrets,” an intimate collection of highlights, high-jinx, and memories spanning the five years of magic that made “A New Day” the hottest ticket in Las Vegas history. Céline Dion took her last curtain call for the groundbreaking show on December 15, 2007.
