He broke off his engagement with ‘Red Rock Diner’ fellow performer Debbie Timuss in November 2005 and soon after, got into a new relationship with British actress Emily Blunt. However, the couple parted ways in July 2008.
He dated Argentine actress Luisana Lopilato, whom he got engaged with in November 2009 and later married in March 2011 in Buenos Aires. Their son, Noah Bublé, was born in 2013.
Michael Steven Bublé was born on September 9, 1975 in Burnaby city, British Columbia, as the eldest of the three kids, to salmon fisherman Lewis Bublé and Amber.
Since his father was always at the sea fishing, he was brought up by his mother and Italian grandfather, Demetrio Santaga, who introduced him to the world of music and played a major role in shaping up his singing career.
He completed his education from Seaforth Elementary School and Cariboo Hill Secondary School.
His talent was noticed by his family during Christmas, when he was 13, while performing on Bing Crosby’s ‘White Christmas’, after which he took singing classes for vocal training. He first performed on-stage at 16 at a nightclub.
In order to let the young Bublé perform on-stage with local musicians and showcase his talent, his grandfather would offer free plumbing services at clubs.
He began his singing career with Elvis’s role in the musical ‘Red Rock Diner’, in Vancouver, in 1996. Here, he met singer and dancer, Debbie Timuss, with whom he shifted to Toronto in 1998 and performed in the musical ‘Forever Swing’.
He debuted on national television, in 1997, with the award-winning ‘Bravo!’ documentary ‘Bid Band Boom!’
His major break came in 2000 when he was noticed by Michael McSweeney, advisor to former Canadian Prime Minister, Brian Mulroney, who circulated the young aspirant’s albums.
Impressed with his talent, the Prime Minister and his wife invited him to perform at their daughter’s wedding, who then introduced him to Grammy-winning producer and Warner Brothers music executive, David Foster.
He debuted on the silver screen with ‘Duets’ (2000) starring along with Gwyneth Paltrow and Huey Lewis, followed by the airhead comedy ‘Totally Blonde’ (2001) and ‘The Snow Walker’ (2003).
His album ‘Call Me Irresponsible’ (2007) reached number one within a week at Billboard 200, a feat which was accomplished by only a few singing legends - Michael Jackson and Sugarland.
A Starbucks Frappucino commercial launched in 2005, featuring Bublé singing ‘Come Fly With Me’, was released in the Starbucks edition of ‘It’s Time’.
During his ‘Crazy Love’ Dublin tour, his performance at the Aviva Stadium saw a record-holding 51,700 spectators, his largest ever audience, with all his show tickets sold out in just one day.
