Why Céline Dion has a mold from her late husband's body

Gourmandize Staff, 10/12/2016

Céline Dion has found a novel way to keep her departed husband René in her life, who died in January after a long battle with throat cancer.

It's clear that the star still desperately misses her husband, to whom she had been married for 21 years.

"I'm still in love with him... I got to bed with him, and I come on stage with him. So I'm still married to him"

As a way of staying connected to her late husband, she commissioned a mold of his outstretched hand.

Mounted on a smart little wooden pulping, it stands underneath the sign "KNOCK ON WOOD WITH RENE".

Before every performance, she grasps his hand and knocks for good luck.

Ok, we admit that we do find it a little bit creepy, but it's also pretty awesome and very Céline.

What do you think of the hand mold? Creepy or super heart-breakingly romantic?
