Celine Dion. Both her voice and her personality.

Whitney. Listen to One Moment in Time. That song alone will make you a believer.

May I ask why you thought she was trash?

REALLY??? Like, she overdosed on coke and other drugs in her bathtub and drown? Her shitty relationship with her husband etc.

Dude. This is about the singing. Not their personal lives. The FRAK?!?

You're really taking it THAT far?! LMBO!
OP posted music videos ... To compare! Not full bios of their lives.
This shouldn't be that hard to understand.
Unless you really don't like her because she was a successful, beloved black woman.

I just said I find her trash, and I still think she is. Don't put words I didn't say.

Speaking of trash its known that Celine's Husband had been messing around with her since she was 12 and he was 38
Good thing this thread is about vocal talent or this could get ugly

Again, this is about singing talent. Not who was a better person, which is subjective.
Stick to the intent!

Is it true that you can’t talk badly of Celine Dion to any Canadian or else they will be angry? Someone once told me a story of that.

Of course not, most of them hate her. Same as with Justin Bieber. My favourite singer is Kylie Minogue, just not because she sings right, but because she's fun. I don't see Céline to be fun at all.

Whitney. The Queen of the Night. Crack is whack. Show me the receipts.

Whitney better looking, but a total phony druggie.
Celine better music, and seems more genuine. But not a looker. She's best heard, not seen. To me she has an odd look to her. Even when she was young, she always seems to look like a really old thin person.

No respect To Celine, but I rate everyone else by Whitney Houston. I do not think Whitney was phony at all, I think a possible reason she took drugs, is because she had a hard time being a real person in fake environment.

Great song. As crazy as it seems this song came out in 1996 when Dion was 28 years old She looks 40. Right now, I never knew this but Google says she's only 54. I thought she was 70 by the way she looks.

Old school Madonna 80s and early 90s destroys both Whitney and Celine.

That song was everywhere back then. I feel like I haven't heard it in 20 years. Odd how some songs stay in play and others drop off a cliff.

In popularity... Not in vocal talent. Celine and Whitney CRUSH Madonna on that realm.

Madonna has way better songs and 10x better videos than either of them. When all of them were in the younger years, Madonna also has the most sex appeal and was the best looking too.
She also didnt OD in a bathtub, or have a weird relationship hooking up with her agent of 26 years older when she was a teenager.
Vocal talent means nothing in singing. It's all about entertainment. That's like saying my music teacher in grade 7/8 (same woman) is better than all of them because she had a great voice, taught music, can read music, and showed us how to play 5 instruments. But entertainment wise was a boring old lady.

Lol what the fuck. How could the title be misinterpreted as anything other than there singing voices? If the title would've been Mike Tyson vs Lennox Lewis you wouldn't think it was about who is the faster limbo dancer.

Why would it even be about singing voices when:Lol what the fuck. How could the tile be misinterpreted as anything other than there singing voices? If the title would've been Mike Tyson vs Lennox Lewis you wouldn't think it was about who is the faster limbo dancer.
1. The OP never stated anything about voices
2. The videos posted aren't even ones where either singer is trying to prove their best voices reaching peak performance?
The Whitney video is a cheery party song.

Celine Dion is the better singer in my opinion, but whitney Houston is easily in my top ten female pop singers of all time.

LOL. That's why I said in my post above "younger years". Never knew she was this fat. And look at her hands. A 2000 year old mummy isn't much worse.Madonna looks like she was prepared by a mortician now.
