30 DECEMBER 2022 (TORONTO, ON) – Today, Jeanick Fournier, the winner of the first season of Canada’s Got Talent (2022) on Citytv and one of this year’s biggest breakthrough Canadian artists, releases her rendition of Lady Gaga’s “I’ll Never Love Again” from A Star is Born via Universal Music Canada. The single release comes just days ahead of Jeanick’s journey on America’s Got Talent: All Stars as a contestant, premiering on Monday, January 2 at 8 p.m. ET on CTV2.
“I’m sharing this song because of the depth of its story – this way of expressing the pain of love, I know many people can relate to it. The story of this film touched my heart,” says Jeanick about the new single. “During a recent trip to Toronto, my team at Universal Music Canada helped me choose this song as my next release, in addition to introducing me to a vocal coach with whom I still learned a lot. Another magical moment!”
This is Jeanick’s take on the GRAMMY Award-winning song of the same title from Lady Gaga, featured in the 2018 film A Star is Born. “I’ll Never Love Again”, produced by Milano and Aaron Paris, marks the first release from the breakthrough Canadian artist since her self-titled album arrived earlier this year via Universal Music Canada, featuring her first Top 10 single at Québec radio, “Ça ira”, original song “Moment”, and her stunning rendition of Céline Dion’s “I Surrender”, which kicked off her Canada’s Got Talent journey with the coveted Golden Buzzer from host Lindsay Ell. She ended up winning the competition before signing with Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company.
The 50-year-old breakthrough star is being celebrated as Canada’s newest pop diva, debuting at #1 in Québec and #13 on the Billboard Canadian albums chart with her self-titled album. Jeanick Fournier has also spent multiple consecutive weeks at #1 on ADISQ’s Top Anglophone Album from a Québec-Based Artist chart.
