Rolling Stone magazine named the greatest singers of all time, and while 200 artists made the list, Celine Dion was not one of them — shocking fans and sparking outrage on social media.

"My oldest daughter took her first steps, without crutches, in a choreographed dance to a Celine Dion song. It doesn't matter what Rolling Stone thinks of her.

The list was compiled by Rolling Stone staff members and contributors, unlike its 2008 list that used an"elaborate voting process" – and the magazine notes that this is not a list of the"greatest voices." The magazine looked for"originality, influence, the depth of an artist's catalog, and the breadth of their musical legacy," when compiling the list.

Their lists always suck.

Bob Dylan's in the top 20 and Adele isn't that's all you need to know about the list

They knew omitting her would give them attention ..Celine is on of the few great voices

Garbage tone deaf Rolling Stone magazine

You'll forget some people when you're talking tens of thousands of singers. I wouldn't have picked Celine either because I simply wouldn't have remembered her in the first place. Not a knock.... just not my style.

Bob Dylan?

Make the list to be greatest 1000.

Not an expert but they put billie eilish before her lolll

I watched Celine Dion sing a popular Chinese song in Mandarin on Chinese TV's 2013 New Year's special. Her pronunciation was fairly good for the 1st verse but then deteriorated rapidly. I guess she hadn't had time to prepare the entire song. Still, the audience cheered wildly.

Yeah. I mean how is she not That feels wrong.

what!

Rolling Stone got it right.

All these singers sold out to promote satanism and perversity, idc how much money to have if all they did was push evil on to generations

Hahaha

Rolling Stone still in business and has a magazine? Like everything else in this social media world everyone has an opinion and love to “keyboard” people that has a different one.

Reminds me of a song...

Like rolling stone has ANY credibility anymore, LOL.

Oh no. Outrage has been sparked.

She shouldn't be on the list because of her nationality

I saw the list and 90% of those people I never heard of.

first 11 black? where's the equity and inclusion

🙄

That's the power of Luv. I suppose their Violent bottomfeeding Zombie Sodomite hero chimeras made it tho. philistines all. Crimes Against Sociery. Theur children have no lives they're made ta eat dog shit by satanist cocists.

Who cares it’s a liberal rag 🥱

The uproar over the absence of Carmen McRae and Anita O'Day and countless others was somewhat more muted, but equally (or more) valid -- such lists being not much more meaningful than your local TV station's Ten Best Burgers list.

There's Elvis....and there is everyone else.

Very little amount of people like Celine. Why is she surprised?

I agree. She doesn't have it! She's no Whitney or Aretha!

Who reads Rollingstone? Boomers?

Ehats even more outrageous is that they put Michael Jackson in 86th place! Like WTF 🤦🏾‍♂️

i seldom agree with Rolling Stone Magazine lists but they're right in leaving Ms. Dion off of it. but then i know people believe she has the voice of an angel.

that was totally personal

RollingStone how dare you

The only explanation I can think of for her omission is that all the Judges were from the deaf society. She has in my opinion the strongest natural vocals that would put her in the top five. Elvis would have to be there as would Tina Arena & for sexual vocals, Kylie Minogue rules

Courtney Love is on the list. Celine is not. That pretty much makes the list a joke .

There should never be anything like this, everyone has a number one. How can anyone give another person their worth.

Celine Dion? I’d rather drive on worn out brake pads

Who friggin cares… Its all BS people !!!!!! Wake up !!’

So,,, guess she’s NOT AS GOOD as YOU THINK SHE IS!!!!

She was mediocre at best. The Kelly Clarkson of the 90s.

😂😂😂 that's hilarious

biz markie should be number 1

Freddie Mercury 14th is absurd. Top 5 for him or GTFO

Rolling Stone is only going to list the names of singers whose music they would praise in their magazine. Bob Dylan, Lou Reed, Leonard Cohen, Johnny Cash etc. They would never identify themselves with the music of someone like Celine.

Love to know what criteria they use to create this list.

She has lots of hits, such as 'Because You Loved Me', 'The Power of Love', 'That's The Way It Is', 'To Love You More', 'A New Day Has Come', 'I'm Alive', 'Beauty and the Beast' and of course 'My Heart Will Go On'!!

France alone has dozens of great singers and they are not listed here. France as an example of how this list should not be called “the greatest singers of all time”

Celine is one of the greatest..

Just read too 10 guitarists of all time. Keith Richards there by no Peter Green.

Rolling Stone probably has more political writers than music writers these days. So I wouldn’t put too much importance into this list. Imagine having Courtney Love on it but not Celine Dion.

The question is more, why are bob dylan and Lou reed on it. They are notoriously horrible singers.

If it wasn’t for titanic she wouldn’t have any claim to fame

Her Angelic voice is one of the reasons why I fell in love with music. 😢

It still exists?

I'm no fan, but she should definitely be on the list. Maybe they just forgot about her. Yeah, that's probably it.

I’m speechless !!!!!! ** Sigh ** This is more than a tragedy. Shame on you, Rolling Stone. 🤦🏿‍♀️

That is a bogus list if Celine is not on it....

Seems like they never heard the song ' the prayer ' 'prayer' and a new day has come By celinedion . Such a shame list if i were included in those list, I would feel ashamed and not proud of being in that. CelineDion

Every time I hear her sing, I want to go to medical school, become an ENT, and remove her adenoids free of charge.

Even RollingStone can get things wrong.

rolingstone magazine is a joke

Rolling Stones has been rebranded as Rolling Trash Heap.

Tiny Tim should be top ten.

Meanwhile there's a raging war in the Ukraine

Rolling Stoned. The people are literally on drugs

She's not that good

This is bs...she should be on the list.

Rolling Stone Rolling Clowns 🤡 An insult to Celine Dion

It's really ridiculous. Her 'My Heart Will Go on' and another singer's 'Yesterday Once More' are the two most touching songs.

From the list they made up, it’s as if they pulled the names out of a hat. It has no validity at all.

Rolling Stone has always overlooked and/or negated Canadian Artists Prime example: First time ever on RS cover 2015. but why? was it because Rush announced their R50 (50 years as a band) farewell tour in 2015 too?

LOL

These lists are always nonsense but also fun, do your own list if you don't like theirs

Rolling Stone is a pretty much irrelevant publication anyway

Laughable JohnLennon 12 JenniferHudson omitted

i personally think she's a great singer. She should be in that list

200 is a good number.

Rolling Stone put the Boston bomber on their cover trying to glamorize a person who placed a bomb next to and blew up a kid. Who cares about any list they make.

Wondering who’s fault is that…🤣

Arianna Grande? Her voice is like fingernails on a chalkboard.

I never thought she was all that good

Who was at the top?

The joke list

But the wailing byonce was.

It is shocking! I bet Brittney fans are equally as outraged! There were some who were added to the list that didn’t deserve it! A lot of rappers were absent. There’s a difference between entertaining and talent! Stephanie Mills should have definitely been on this list!😊

I rather listen to a room full of cats in heat than her. She sucks

Willie Nelson is a great singer, according to Rolling Stone. I'll bet Dylan is on their list, too. And Neil Young. 🙈

So Celine Dion fans will only be happy when RS confers with their beliefs…?

Maybe her personality contributed !

She probably refused to pay them
