Celine Dion has a titanic makeup malfunction on her world tour

After years performing in Las Vegas, Celine Dion is travelling the world on a year-long tour entitled Taking Chances.

And it seems the large-lunged Canadian singer certainly is taking chances in her real-life as she left her hotel without any make-up on yesterday.

After enjoying a relatively paparazzi-free life in Nevada's Sin City over the past few years, it appeared the 40-year-old star did not anticipate the crowd of photographers outside her New York hotel.

After taking to the stage at Madison Square Garden last night as part of the North American leg of the tour, Celine looked a world away from her glamorous stage persona on Monday afternoon.

Flanked by her manager husband René Angélil, Celine emerged from her Manhattan hotel looking red and blotchy - presumably a side effect from the heavy stage make-up she would have worn the night before.

With her hair scrapped back and sunglasses shielding her eyes from the daylight glare, Celine looked tired after months of touring.

Since the tour started in Johannesberg, South Africa in February, Celine has embarked on a gruelling schedule covering 24 countries before starting the North American leg in Boston last month.

When she wraps the tour in her native Canada next February, Celine would have performed over 100 shows.

Despite a lack of new songs in her world tour, Celine has been wowing critics with her powerful renditions of her biggest hits, including Think Twice, The Power Of Love and My Heart Will Go On from the Titanic movie.
