Celine Dion: V Magazine, Fall 2012

So... it looks like it's the saucy, mummy-in-her-40s issue for V magazine's Fall edition. This is... Celine Dion?

Why, yes... it is. Behold:

And this, my fave: a behind the scenes shot:

The 44 year old singer posed topless - even bottomless - for photographer Sebastian Faena. 

One of my other faves of the mother of three is one where she dons a bunny mask, and suspender-ed pants, cleverly styled-up with toy bears all over. Jeremy Scott, who owns this exotic ensemble, Tweeted the photo, saying, "CELINE DION IN MY @adidasoriginals BEAR PANTS STYLED BY THE LEGENDARY CARLYNE CERF 4 @vmagazine."

"It doesn't seem this way on stage, but I'm playing a lot, " she tells the magazine. The photo shoot, which took place in her home in Florida, was the first she did in six years that wasn't for a promo.

She also reveals how much she loves motherhood. Dion, who has three sons to longtime husband René Angélil, has said, "I thought I had a life before, but until I was a mom, I had no idea."

Here is the behind the scenes vid - featuring Celine's angelic voice... keep watching for the impromptu Celine song at the end:
