Celine Dion
Do you think Celine Dion knew that she would go on to be one of the biggest musicians on the planet? We doubt it. She had a lot of siblings, so the beginning of her life was not at all easy. She was born in Quebec and had albums in the French and English languages. In 1988, she made the world pay attention to her by winning the Eurovision song contest as the Switzerland representative. In the past, she has also performed songs in Japanese, Italian, German, Spanish, Latin, and Chinese.

Aretha Franklin
The “Queen of Soul” is also on our list, of course. Can you believe that Aretha Franklin started as a church gospel singer? Based on this alone, we doubt that she had any idea she would become so famous. She was 18 years old when she signed a contract with Columbia Records. This musician was legendary in so many ways. For one thing, she went on to release 131 singles, as well as 38 studio albums. Aside from that, she became the first woman to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987.
