From Nelly to Missy Elliott, Celine can turn any lyric into a tear-jerking love song.

Celine Dion is the queen of ballads. But Ellen Degeneres wanted to put that to the ultimate test by giving lyrics to popular hip-hop and pop songs and see if she can give them the Celine Dion touch. With songs like Nelly's "Hot in Herre" and Britney Spears' "Work Bitch," two things were clear: she really can sing anything you throw at her, but there are certain words that she's still queasy about as we saw with the Britney tune.

"What is that?" she said, baffled by her performance of "Hot in Herre." "My career is going to end tonight."

Perhaps the highlight of this great yet hilarious set was her soulful rendition of Missy Elliott's "Work It."
