Celine Dion has expressed her sorrow following the death of R&B singer Peabo Bryson, her Grammy-winning duet partner on the theme song for Disney's 1991 film *Beauty and the Beast*. Bryson, who passed away at age 75 on Tuesday surrounded by family, was known for his vocal contributions to other classic Disney songs like "A Whole New World" from *Aladdin* with Regina Belle, and for numerous solo hits spanning from the 1970s to the 2010s. Dion remembered Bryson as "wonderful and generous," crediting him with making her comfortable while she was learning to sing in English and noting he helped launch her career by contributing to her first top 10 hit in the US and UK. His family stated his voice served as a soundtrack for cherished moments over five decades, leaving a legacy that will endure.
