25 best music video looks of the year (so far)
“Ashes” – Céline Dion
Look, we will always be a sucker for a gorgeous gown, and if it’s on Céline Dion, that’s even better. Céline has been killing the fashion game for the past couple years, and we couldn’t be more excited about it. She has really come into her own as a fashion icon, taking risks and playing with new, outrageous styles that we haven’t seen her in before. But for the “Ashes” music video to promote Deadpool 2, Céline is a classic beauty through and through.
The French-Canadian songstress performs the ballad in an empty theater, alone on stage, until the masked hero starts dancing behind her. Even as Deadpool strides beautifully around that stage — in heels, no less — our eyes go straight to Celine. She’s wearing a floor-sweeping powder blue Christian Siriano gown, complete with a cape, and her makeup is flawless.
But the gown is just the tip of the iceberg. For the music video, Celine was dripping in diamonds. In fact, the jewels she’s sporting are worth over $25 million. You read that right: 25 million dollars. Around her neck, she has a jaw-dropping Harry Kotlar diamond necklace, which is a whopping 182 carats, and just the necklace alone retails for $25 million. She completes the look with Maxior chandelier earrings, and we don’t even want to know what those are worth!
A beautiful song by one of the best singers in the world deserves a music video with all the glitz and glamour possible. Even if it was for Deadpool 2, Celine brought class to the franchise, and we wouldn’t be surprised if the song earns an Oscar nomination.
