Drake was adamant about getting a tattoo of one of his favorite artists, but she urged him not to.
The rapper met fellow Canadian singer Celine Dion at the 2017 Billboard Music Awards where Drake, 32, told Dion, 51, that he was “like a year away from a Céline tat” on his body.
“It means the world, you’re very iconic. We love you. I’m like a year away from a Celine tat,” Drake said.
However, now she has issued a public plea to Drake not to get the personal inking.
“Please Drake, I love you very much. Can I tell you something? Don’t do that,” she said in a video for iHeartRadio Canada.
“You can write me love letters, you can send me autographs for my kids, you can come and visit. I can have you home for lunch or dinner … we can go for a drink. We can sing together. Whatever you want to do — I can talk to your mother — Drake whatever you want! But please [don’t],” Dion implored.
The world-renowned singer added she didn’t want Drake to get her face etched on his body because due to aging, the tattoo will eventually wrinkle and her face will look “not pretty.”
“Please don’t tattoo. If you do it, just do a fake one so you can change your mind,” she added.
Meanwhile, Dion recently shared that her new album Courage will be “very fun” and “very different” from her other work and feels she’s “opened her wings” on the new record.
“The album sounds very fun, very different and I did try new things. It’s still me but I have opened my wings to embrace new writers and producers.
“Just to be open to different sounds. I’m not doing like an AC DC heavy metal, but there are different flavors.”
The “My Heart Will Go On” hitmaker kicked off the Courage World Tour this month and recently admitted she would have a “breakdown” if she looked at all the dates.
Dion, who has son René-Charles, 18, and 8-year-old twins Nelson and Eddy with her late husband René Angélil, confessed that the global run “would not happen” if she acknowledged how long it would take as she fears she’d miss her children too much.
“When I go on a tour you cannot look at all the dates because you’ll have a breakdown and the tour will not happen. My heart won’t go on,” Dion quipped.
