Celine Dion is contemplating a return to the spotlight despite battling a rare neurological disorder known as stiff-person syndrome, Metro UK reports.
The iconic 56-year-old artiste has reportedly been offered a prestigious opportunity to perform at the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics despite the progression of her illness.
The Canadian singer, known for her powerful voice, revealed she’d been diagnosed with the progressive neurological condition – that affects the muscles, causing stiffness and spasms – in 2022.
In spite of this, Celine has previously expressed her eagerness to return to live performances, which have been a cornerstone of her career.
According to sources close to the singer, she sees the Paris Olympics as a chance to make a comeback to the stage she loves so dearly.
In an interview with The Sun’s Bizarre column, a source revealed, “Celine has made no secret of her desire to make it back to the stage, and Paris would be the perfect opportunity for her to do that.”
Unlike her usual full-length concert engagements, this performance would involve singing just one song during the grand opening ceremony, making it a much more doable return for the artist. Although Celine Dion is excited about the possibility of performing at such a globally renowned event, the decision is not yet final.
