Céline Dion Wore the 'Titanic' Necklace During Haute Couture Fashion Week, Because of Course She Did


The Heart of the Ocean necklace may have ended up at the bottom of the ocean at the end of Titanic, but that wasn’t about to stop Céline Dion from incorporating it into her Fashion Week looks.

The Canadian singer was spotted out and about on Tuesday in Paris, where she’s attending the haute couture shows, wearing what is easily one of the most iconic jewels in film history.

Okay, fine, it’s a replica—plucked from Vetements’ spring 2020 show. Still, it made for a moment. The rest of her look—an ultra-trend oversized blazer and a T-shirt that reads “I Heart Paris Hilton”—was also from the brand.

It’s not even the first time Dion pays a fashion homage to Titanic while wearing the brand. She famously wore Vetements’ oversized hoodie with the movie’s poster featuring Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio in July 2016… to Haute Couture Fashion Week in Paris, no less. We sense a theme here.

Dion also wore a replica of the Heart of the Ocean necklace to the 1998 Oscars, when “My Heart Will Go On” was nominated—and won— Best Original Song.

Her latest outfit was relatively laid-back, considering her recent Fashion Week style record. As we’ve mentioned, she lives, breathes, and cries couture—and she’s dressed to the nines, whether she’s sitting front row or casually leaving her hotel. And our hearts will go on for it.

Kate Winslet Finally Gave 'Titanic' Fans the Ending They Deserve


Kate Winslet knows what Titanic fans have been wondering for the past 20 years: Why didn’t Jack get on the door with Rose?! (Yes, it’s been almost two decades since you first realized nothing is quite as romantic as a frozen Leonardo DiCaprio.) So last night on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert she gave the people what they wanted, regardless of what director James Cameron thought they needed: proof that both her character Rose and Leo’s Jack could have floated on that door together, saving them both the frozen depths of the Atlantic and thus leading to a long life of couples horseback rides and spending the money that diamond could have gotten them.

When Winslet confessed she knew Jack could have fit on the door—actually she put the burden on him, saying he “could have tried harder” to fit on the floating bit of wood—Colbert offered to play the role of Jack while Winslet stretched out on his desk, just like she did all those years ago. As the host held her hands in the freezing cold water/hard floor, his Rose urged him to skip the watery grave, insisting, “Come on darling, there’s room for two.” And with that, the talk show host lifted himself up on the desk, the two easily sharing the raft together.

Besides creating what will undoubtedly be the best bonus footage for the 20th-anniversary release, Winslet did answer some questions about her time on the set. She explained that, contrary to some circulating factoids, she suffered from hypothermia, not pneumonia, from spending so long in the icy water, and that while her son has seen some of the film (in its 3-D re-release) she covered his eyes during the racier bit.

In case you missed it, Titanic is back in theaters for one week only starting Friday. If the sad ending is too much for you even after all these years, just close your eyes, and picture the clip below.

So This Is Apparently Why Jack Had to Die in 'Titanic'


One of the most poignant moments in Titanic—which is turning the big 2-0—is, of course, when Rose has to let Jack go once they come to the conclusion that they both cannot share the floating board that will ultimately save one and only one life. (Of course, it sure seems like they could have huddled on it together, but hey, that’s up to director James Cameron and the props department and Cameron has corrected my absolutely child-level knowledge of physics and pointed out it’s a matter of buoyancy, not space, but ah, the loss of young love.) In any case, we’ve wrestled with the untimely collapse of these star-crossed lovers for the better part of two decades, and Cameron himself is here to clear up any lingering doubts. And also he is here to chastise us for still being obsessed with it (sorry not sorry).

In an interview with Vanity Fair published on Sunday, he says that the reason Jack had to die is that on page 147 of the script, Jack dies. Which like, come on—we weren’t there on handout day and no one sent us notes.

He then expands a bit. “I think it’s all kind of silly, really, that we’re having this discussion 20 years later. But it does show that the film was effective in making Jack so endearing to the audience that it hurts them to see him die,” he told Vanity Fair. Yeah, no kidding. That pile of crumpled tissues every time I watch isn’t because I keep spilling my wine.

“Had he lived,” Cameron continues. “The ending of the film would have been meaningless. . . . The film is about death and separation; he had to die. So whether it was that, or whether a smoke stack fell on him, he was going down. It’s called art, things happen for artistic reasons, not for physics reasons.”

But…but…the door! “Art” could have supported them when your physics could not!

Fine. If it’s for art, well, Vive le cinéma! And if this is the Romeo and Juliet of the sexually repressed Edwardian era, we can maybe accept it. At least they had that steamy time in the back of that car. Good on them!

But, IDK, maybe a smokestack would have been better? That water was cold.

P.S. Titanic is coming back to theaters in December. You’re welcome.

Kate Winslet Says She and Leonardo DiCaprio Quote 'Titanic' to Each Other

We finally have confirmation that Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio’s real-life friendship is pretty much what we’ve been picturing.

In a recent interview with Glamour UK, cover star Winslet opened up about her BFF of two decades DiCaprio (the duo met on the set of Titanic, obviously, which premiered to the world in 1997), and to this day, the pair is as close as ever, and Winslet confirmed that their conversations often date back to their humble beginnings aboard the doomed vessel.

“You don’t even want to know the last conversation we had, because it was so funny and made me laugh so much,” Winslet revealed. “We found ourselves saying to each other, ‘Can you imagine if the world really knew the stupid things we say?’ I’m not going to tell you what we actually talk about, but yeah, we’re very, very close and sometimes we do quote the odd Titanic line back and forth to each other, because only we can, and we find it really funny.” Be still my heart of the ocean.

For years, we’ve watched the two actors spend quality time together through a paparazzi lens or at an awards show, on the other side of our television screens. While they were never romantically linked, we will still forever see the friends as Jack and Rose—deep down. The pair was most recently spotted vacationing together in St.-Tropez, on the French Riviera, and at DiCaprio’s annual Foundation Gala, held on July 26, where a private dinner with DiCaprio and Winslet was actually auctioned off for charity.

And now we know for sure: The heart does, in fact, go on.
