Celine Dion has upset neighbours over plans to build a water park in her home.
The 41-year-old singer has reportedly enraged local residents who are less than impressed with her vision for the new addition to her $12.5 million property.
A source said: "There will be two giant pools, several waterslides and a lazy river, much like an amusement park."
While Celine's eight-year-old son Rene-Charles and the rest of her extended family might be happy, some of the neighbours have made it quite clear they're not happy with her plans.
A local resident told the National Enquirer magazine: "It's totally distasteful and demeans the whole area. I don't know how she got the well permits in there either, because the town is usually pretty restrictive with stuff like that."

CELINE DION has finally won her battle to cut her son RENE CHARLES' hair - because his school wouldn't allow him to sport long locks.
The singer admits she was quite relieved when she learned the boy had to have a drastic haircut before he could sign up for lessons at a posh new school - because she'd been trying to persuade him to trim his mane for years.
She says, "I miss his hair but when he started school, it was a rule of school. I said, 'Listen R.C., you know doctors, they have rules, they have uniforms and they have to wash their hands for their surgery... It's a rule, you have to do that... There's a rule in school that you have to cut your hair short... If you want to go to that school, you have to cut the hair.'"
Dion tells TV news show Access Hollywood she kept a ponytail of her son's long hair, so she'd have a special keepsake of his youth.

CELINE DION has spoken out for the first time after learning her recent in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) was unsuccessful, insisting she's feeling "strong" and ready for another attempt at having a baby.

In August (09), the Canadian superstar, 41, announced she was expecting her second child after having embryos implanted in her womb, but her husband Rene Angelil confirmed in November (09) that she was no longer pregnant.
However, the My Heart Will Go On singer is refusing to feel "depressed" by the loss - she's already making plans to return to the same doctors in New York to undergo the process once more.

She tells Access Hollywood, "I feel strong and, honestly, we're very blessed. We have a wonderful child, we're extremely happy. It's not like, 'Oh my god, she's not pregnant and she's depressed.' You know how it works. We are great.
We hope for the best, we hope to get pregnant.
If it happens, it happens... We are going back to the same people, the same doctor in New York."
And Celine Dion admits her eight-year-old son Rene-Charles is also hoping for a little brother or sister.
She adds, "When we announced to him that we were pregnant and then it didn't work out, he said, 'Wasn't it supposed to be 100 per cent sure?' I said, 'It was 100 per cent, but it's nature and it didn't work out.' And he was looking at me and he said, 'Are you going to try again?' I said, 'Yeah, we are going to try again.'
He knows exactly what we are doing, so he's great."

The JONAS BROTHERS have named their dream collaborator - the pop trio wants to work with CELINE DION.
The singing siblings are big fans of the Canadian star and hope to one day head into the studio with her.
Nick Jonas tells Digital Spy, "She's amazing. I like her song A New Day Has Come the best. That or the one from Titanic."
And Kevin is adamant the age gap between the 41 year old and the young band wouldn't make a difference.
He adds, "She's got the best voice ever. Actually, I think her presence is so incredible and so passionate that it wouldn't even matter. Her voice and her artistry would just cut through it all."

CELINE DION ENTERTAINS THE WORLD IN THE HOT TICKET'S PRESENTATION OF "CELINE: THROUGH THE EYES OF THE WORLD"

CULVER CITY, Calif., December 3, 2009 - Celine Dion, the international superstar and best-selling female artist of all time, has toured around the world and back again, and now, Sony Pictures Releasing's special programming division, The Hot Ticket, will let audiences follow her everywhere. For a limited engagement beginning early next year in wide release, Celine: Through the Eyes of the World will bring Celine Dion's 2008-2009 Taking Chances World Tour to theaters. This special motion picture event gives Dion fans who attended the extremely popular tour - which placed Dion second only to Madonna in ticket sales in 2008 - another chance to experience the magical event, this time from a vantage point unparalleled by any ticket.

Join Celine as she travels to five continents and 25 countries, putting on show-stopping performances of some of her biggest hits. However, this world tour is different as Celine is traveling with her husband, her 8-year-old son, her mother, and her extended family. Intercutting concert performances with behind the scenes footage, audiences will get the chance to really know Celine, her family, and her co-performers as well as those fans that she meets and performs for around the world. Inspirational, moving, honest and surprisingly funny, Celine: Through the Eyes of the World captures Dion's deft balance between the demands of an elaborate and extensive year-long worldwide tour and Dion's top priority - caring for and enjoying time with her family.

Commenting on the announcement, Rory Bruer, president of Worldwide Distribution for Sony Pictures Releasing, said, "Celine Dion is a beloved performer all around the world and early next year, The Hot Ticket will offer fans a front row seat as she performs on stage her most recognized hits. Through this special film, audiences will also see Celine as they have never seen before as she travels and interacts with her family and creative collaborators while touring extraordinary and exotic locations around the globe. We believe Celine: Through the Eyes of the World offers a unique perspective on Celine, her life, and her inspiring dedication to creating a stage experience like no other."

Celine added, "This was an amazing world tour, but there's a lot more than just concert footage on this film. I let the cameras follow me everywhere. There are a lot of ups and downs, and it's very personal...and it's definitely the most intimate journey that I've ever shared with my fans."

Having sold more than 200 million albums around the world, Celine Dion is one of the most immediately recognized, widely respected and successful performers in pop music history. During her spectacular career Celine has been honored with over 1000 awards. She is a 5 time Grammy Award winner, including Album of the Year and Best Pop Album for Falling Into You (1996); and Record of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "My Heart Will Go On" (1998). Her recordings have won two Academy Awards®: Best Original Song in 1992 for the title song of Beauty and the Beast (with Peabo Bryson), and Best Original Song in 1998 for "My Heart Will Go On" (From Titanic). She has earned 7 American Music Awards, 20 Juno Awards (Canada) and an astonishing 40 Felix Awards (Quebec). In 2004, Celine received the Diamond award at the World Music Awards recognizing her status as the best-selling female artist of all time. In 2007 she was honored with the Legend Award at World Music Awards in recognition of her global success and outstanding contribution to the music industry.

On her Taking Chances World Tour, which took place between February 2008 and February 2009, Dion played concerts in South Africa, the United Arab Emirates, Japan, China, South Korea, Australia, Malaysia, the UK, Belgium, France, Ireland, the Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Germany, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Poland, Austria, Italy, Monaco, Canada, Mexico, and 41 cities in the United States. The 5-continent, 25-country, 93-city tour - Dion's first in nine years - was wildly successful, selling over three million tickets.

Stephane Laporte, director of the film, added, "After touring the world with Celine, I can say confidently that there is no performer anywhere like her. She is a consummate entertainer - not only was she committed to giving the fans who came to the shows the best performances she could, but she was just as committed to this film, to make it entertaining and give some insight into what it's like to be on the road for a year with one's family. This is Celine's world and it's a wonderful experience to live in it and be a part of it."

The Hot Ticket also recently announced plans to present Kenny Chesney: Summer in 3D in movie theaters this April. Celine: Through the Eyes of the World extends the division's commitment to bringing audiences premium alternative content experiences to theaters with state of the art audio and visual capabilities. Since the division was launched in 2008, The Hot Ticket has presented motion picture presentations of Cirque du Soleil and the final performance of the Broadway production of Rent.
