Therese Dion actually sent her demo to Rene and wrote him a note that read, “This is a 12-year-old with a fantastic voice. Please listen to her. We want her to be like Ginette Reno.” He did not respond in the beginning but got convinced when one of the Dion boys talked to him and pleaded with him to give the demo a chance.
