Certified Diamond
The Record Industry Association of America started to award “diamond status” to albums with over 10 million sales in 1999. This is not at all easy to do, but Celine Dion managed to accomplish this feat! In fact, she has two albums with this status under her belt. They are none other than “Falling Into You” and “Let’s Talk About Love”, which had been released in 1996 and 1997, respectively.
A Best Selling Female Artist
In 1991, the Nielson Soundscan System started to be used by record executives to keep an eye on album sales. Their data have revealed that Celine Dion is one of the top-selling female artists in the North American continent. In fact, Rihanna and Mariah Carey are the only ones to have outdone her.
