Celine McLachlan

Celine McLachlan (born February 14, 1969 - died July 18, 2005) was a singer-songwriter who preached the word of love throughout Urapopstar for the last half of the month of May 2005.

Music
Celine's first and only single release, "Love Letters", was released on June 6, 2005, following a promotional campaign in the last two weeks of May 2005 where Celine mostly told everyone she was filled with love (and released a B-side preaching her hate of emo band Kinison). The single proved surprisingly popular with the British music-buying public and, to much surprise, it charted at #14.

An album release, The Lover In All Of Us, was set to be released the following fall, featuring writing contributions from Naomi and Charlie C and collaborations with Emma Brown and Morris D Cat, with its second single release to be "World Without Love", taken from the Russ Hooch-led charity compilation No-One Knew Me: The Anti-Violence Society Album.

Death
On July 18, 2005, Celine performed at Dr. C's, the club venue owned by Dr. C and the Predicates. However, much of the crowd did not know who Celine was and were expecting an edgier act to perform; they were much disappointed once Celine belted out "Love Letters", drawing boos from a majority of the crowd. Once she started singing "World Without Love", it ironically caused a riot. Those not involved in the riot fled the club - owner Dr. C, and even Celine's bodyguards, were nowhere to be seen. Celine attempted to make an escape after nine audience members were beaten to death, but found herself cornered by five of the rioters, who attacked her until she couldn't respond.

Celine was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital half an hour later.
