French Canadian singer Jeanick Fournier has a golden voice, as well as a heart of gold, and she is aiming for the win on America’s Got Talent All Stars. There are people that are blessed with a singing voice that can blow you away, and Fournier is certainly one of them.
Who is Jeanick Fournier?
Jeanick Fournier is a Quebec-born Canadian singer, skilled vocalist, and entertainer, who is the mother of two children. She is well-known for winning the second season of Canada’s Got Talent. Lindsay Ell, the well-known current host of Canada’s Got Talent, also showered her with golden star dusts by giving Fournier her Golden Buzzer.
She had an incredible performance on the CGT stage, leaving everyone in awe of her talent after singing “I Surrender,” by Celine Dion. Many considered this iconic singer the Susan Boyle of CGT.
While working as a palliative care attendant in Saguenay, Fournier has performed and sang in a duet tribute group for Celine Dion for 15 years. Singing Dion’s “S’il suffisait d’aimer” for one of her patients, has won her the hearts of many and she definitely earned the top spot on the show.
She released the album Mes coups de cœur in 2015, which included a collection of covers of some of her favorite songs, as well as one original song written by Fournier and Véronique Gagne. Fournier earned the hearts and votes of Canadians with her inspirational performances, which drew on stories from her personal experiences as a palliative care beneficiary attendant.
She’s Been Singing for Over 30 Years
Experience definitely counts for something in the world of music or anything else in fact, and Fournier has that in spades. Having been singing since her teen years, she is a seasoned vocalist, and her experience gives her an added edge against other singers.
Before finding fame and winning the second season of CGT and taking home the $150,000 grand prize, she used to sing at family restaurants and piano bars. Today she is a famous singer but it may come as a surprise that she suffers from anxiety even after singing for a long time. Despite having been a singer for 30 years, Fournier claimed her new management had to encourage her to audition for the show.
It remains as her one weakness to her otherwise flawless singing performances but she has made an effort to manage the problem. Fournier however, made it clear that she loves performing for the people, and she is aiming to win AGT All-Stars.
