In 2019, in the show 'Taratata,' Garou returns to the big misunderstanding that marked his meeting with his Canadian friend. Their first interview dates back to the 1990s, behind the scenes of the musical Notre-Dame de Paris. Honestly, he explains that it was not him who made the first move.

On the contrary, Celine Dion was inaccessible. 'Everyone jumped on her,' recalls the former juror of The Voice, France. Finally, the 'My Heart Will Go On' singer mistook the singer for a technician. 'She just wanted to adjust her sound,' recalls Garou.
