Celine Dion has a poignant and unique way of remembering her late husband, Rene Angelil.
The My Heart Will Go On singer, 49, had a bronze replica cast of Angelil's hand after his death just more than two years ago. She opened up about a pre-show ritual she has in memory of Angelil, who died at 73 in January of 2016 after a battle with lung cancer according to DailyMail.

'I shake my husband's hand and knock on wood with him every night before every show,' the 49-year-old songstress told Stellar Magazine, in excerpts published on the Sunday Telegraph. 'Even after he's gone, I still talk to him.'
In the revealing chat, Dion said that she remained performing during the time frame before Angelil's death - as a tribute to her late spouse.
